Prematurely Aged at 28- What Treatment Will Be Effective? (photo)
Hi , I am a 28 year old female and due to various factors including stress and smoking, I have aged considerably over the past 2 years. My face, esp. cheeks, appear to be sagging, my whole face looks bigger and the skin has become slack. I have hollows beneath my eyes and labio nasal folds, along with rough skin texture and many fine lines and early wrinkles. I stopped smoking 1 month ago. Will skin treatments such as peels be enough? Should I consider tightening/ or early mid facelift?

Full face laser resurfacing would be an option for you to tighten the skin and improve the overall texture. We offer the Dot Co2 Fractionated Laser. Another option would be facial fillers or Sculptra to re-volumize your face and to re-stimulate collagen production.

Dear Patient,
Congratulations on quitting! Keep it up! Chemical peels are a great start. Your skin’s texture and complexion will improve, your pores will diminish, and fine line will become less apparent. However for the deeper lines such as your nasolabial, I would suggest volume fillers such as Juvéderm. Botox is also a great way to prevent the “11s” from forming. I would advise that you consult with a board certified plastic surgeon for the skin...
