The science of treating wrinkles has advanced rapidly over the past decades. In a time not so long ago expensive, invasive facelifts and cosmetic surgery techniques reserved for the wealthy were the only way to effectively regain the glow of youth. While these procedures are still commonplace in plastic surgeon offices around the country, technology has made skin rejuvenation much more accessible to a much larger portion of the population. Needles and lasers have proved to be effective replacements for the knife.

Botulinum toxin-based injectables such as Botox and Dysport have become hugely popular and can be performed over your lunch break, with zero downtime. Dermal fillers like Juvederm, Restylane and many others have also been shown to be effective in replacing lost volume to smooth out fine lines or deep creases in the face. Options like these offer solutions costing just a couple hundred dollars, in contrast to the several thousand dollar price tag associated with surgery.

Energy-based treatments are another option for repairing the damage caused by the sun’s UV rays. Fractional lasers like the Fraxel or Affirm can deliver impressive results in the course of just a few treatments with a lower occurrence of side-effects than the fully ablative lasers of just a few years ago. Even the power of radio waves has been harnessed to rejuvenate the skin. Devices like Thermage or Aluma use radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate a healing response in the dermis which can lead to noticeable skin tightening.

Although not every physician will have every device, the doctors listed in this directory are likely to have a treatment suitable to help you attain the results you are looking to achieve.
