I'm 23 and in my opinion I look like I'm in my mid to late 30s. I have deep nasolabial folds which and enlarge pores which to me do nothing but make me look even older. Is there anything I can do to reduce my folds, pore size and dark spots. I'm considering surgical procedures because this really affects my confidence. Another thing is one side of my faces looks a lot more youthful than the other side. About me: I'm fairly active. I do about 6 - 9 hours of cardio weekly.
Answer: Reduce nasolabial folds by doing Morpheus8 Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Answer: Laugh Lines / Nasolabial Folds - Fillers + Sculptra, Lasers like Fraxel/Clear + Brilliant, Radiofrequency, Peels, Skin Care 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

Answer: Premature Aging: Nasolabial Folds Profound by Candela Medical is a radiofrequency microneedling device, and is the only treatment in the world that can increase Elastin by 500% and Collagen by 200% or more. It also increases Hylauronic Acid (think Juvederm) naturally. These are the proteins that snap your skin back into place and build volume without fillers. It is a single treatment protocol so there is no need for packages (unlike other radiofrequency microneedling devices on the market). I have had excellent results with nonsurgical facelifts and neck lifts with Profound. This treatment literally rebuilds the very foundation of your skin, and continues doing so for up to a year after the procedure.
