Regardless of your age, taking care of your skin is crucial for maintaining its health and beauty. By following these tips and advice for skin care by the decade, you can help keep your skin looking its best at every age.
30s We encourage you to take this opportunity for “prejuvenation,” locking in a routine with proven treatments to fight inevitable aging. Neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Letybo, etc) stop wrinkles before they become etched into the skin. Dermal Fillers balance the features and restore lost volume. Exfoliating treatments (microdermabrasion, chemical peels, microneedling) stimulate cell turnover, improve tone, and reduce the appearance of acne scars or pigmentation. Radiofrequency (Pelleve) provides instant tightening and stimulates collagen. Laser treatments (IPL/photofacial, Lasergenesis) address unwanted pigment and redness, scarring, and remove hair. Get them while they still have pigment.
40s As we enter our forties, there is a noticeable change in facial shape, due to a loss and redistribution of facial volume, and loss of collagen and elastin. Continue neuromodulators and dermal fillers to address the loss of volume. Early neck and jawline laxity is best addressed with Microneedling with RF (Secret RF) or the Nouvaderm fractional laser, which stimulates collagen production and improves the skin’s elasticity. Injectable collagen stimulators (Sculptra) thicken the skin to truly rejuvenate the tissues. TruSculpt is a non-invasive treatment to address unwanted spot fat, eliminating up to 20% of the fat cells in the treated area with each treatment session.
50s As you enter your fifties and beyond, maintaining skin health becomes even more crucial. Your natural oil production is reduced and cell regeneration slows. Hormonal changes during menopause can exacerbate skin dryness and thinning. Skin laxity becomes more pronounced, and sagging skin becomes a concern. The Agnes RF lifts saggy upper lids, brows, cheeks and jowls. Fractional lasers (Nouvaderm, CO2) can help tighten and rejuvenate the skin, especially upper and lower eyelids and around the mouth. RF treatments can improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and enhance skin elasticity. TruFlex builds muscle mass, which diminishes after 40, but is critical for future physical and mental health.
