Fine lines or nasolabial folds and would hydrafacials help? (Photo)

Question

I am interested in improving the lines around my mouth but am uncomfortable with injectables. Would a series of hydrafacials help? If not, what are some other non-invasive options?

Falguni Patel, MD, FACOG · Answer

After a hydrafacial your skin will instantly look more hydrated and plumper, if you continue with hydrafacials it can help in the long run because its exfoliating and infusing serum into your skin (which you can use a serum for skin texture). Another great option for this would be microneedling, the reason is because the needles are causing trauma to your skin which is forcing your skin to rebuild its own collagen and elastin, which will help smooth out fine lines/ wrinkles/ pore size/ acne scarring.

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Yes, a series of Hydrafacials would help to diminish those lines. Another option worth looking into is laser skin resurfacing with the Erbium laser. This type of laser is extremely effective for treating fine lines and wrinkles, as well as any textural issues with the skin.

It is always best to see a provider in person for a consultation to know which procedures best address the needs of your skin. Amadi Aesthetics Plastic Surgery can help you achieve all your aesthetic goals - call us at (206) 216-4500 for a complimentary consultation today!

Hi, thank you for your question. Yes, a series of Platinum Hydrafacial treatments can help with the improvement of fine lines and nasolabial folds. Boost you skin's circulation with lymphatic drainage to aid in detoxification. Use Corrective boosters to boost collagen production, plump and refine the skin. We recommend that you see a licensed esthetician who is a Hydrafacial specialist and a licensed for theses types of treatments.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting,  and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer

Mark Berkowitz, MD · Answer

Hello, thank you for your question. Our nurse injector reviewed your case and states that a hydrafacial may temporarily relieve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles due to the skin being more hydrated. However, the anatomical concern is the descent of malar volume and lost collagen is the reason this is occurring. Microneedling and lasers can aid in the appearance of these fine lines.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

To improve the appearance of fine lines non invasively you may want to consider chemical peels or SkinPen microneedling.  We also recommend using medical grade skin care products like Transform MD and wearing sunscreen every day.  Visit my website or an aesthetician near you to learn more.

Yes, a series of Hydrafacials will help with fine lines and wrinkles. This is a great non invasive way to help improve skin tone and texture. Increasing the skins hydration is a great way to plump up the skin and diminish fine lines. I would also recommend using a booster to help target skin issues, this will help you get the results quicker. Booster with hyaluronic acid help with keeping the skin plump and hydrated, while a retinol booster will help with skin repair and turnover. Regular Hydrafacials will keep your skin looking overall healthy, glowing and young.

Carrie L. Morris, MD, FACS · Answer

A series of HydraFacial would help with the lines around the mouth eventually, but you would need to get them frequently and invest in good skincare. That can get expensive quickly. Buying a hyaluronic acid for your face would help to improve those fine lines as well. The SkinCeuticals H.A. Intensifier otherwise known as liquid filler would be the best option. Another option that has little to no downtime is Skin Pen micro-needling. Skin Pen works great with improving those fine lines and wrinkles and reduces pore size. This is an option where you do spend quite a bit of money, but you're getting the results that you've been looking for and everyone wants! Hope this helped!
