Smoothing wrinkles and firming skin has never been easier. Depending on your preferences, you can use aesthetic medicine or institute care to correct the volumes of your epidermis. The virtues of these aesthetic techniques are multiple: densification of the dermis, stimulation of the natural production of collagen or restructuring of the face ... We explain everything.

In aesthetic medicine: smoothing and filling

To correct wrinkles, botulinum toxin (Vista-bel, Azzalure) and hyaluronic acid (Juvéderm, Restylane) make the pair: the first smooths the wrinkle, the second bags it up. But here union is strength.

The ideal sequence according to Dr. Olivier Claude, plastic surgeon and plastic surgeon? "Begin with dense hyaluronic acid injections on the face support areas - eyebrows, temples, chin - to restore support. Then smooth out some expression wrinkles with Botox, but not all of them, under pain of frozen face and frozen look.The goal is actually to release the positive emotions.In clear, on the look, one treats the muscles of the wrinkle of the lion and the paw-of-cure that harden.And for the region of the smile, we lower the muscle that strengthens the bitter fold, and we go up the corners of the mouth to evoke a happy smiley.When the muscles are relaxed, the residual wrinkles are eventually refilled with a more fluid hyaluronic acid.

In aesthetic medicine: long-lasting filling

The alternative to injections of hyaluronic acid to restore the harmony of volumes? The new generation of tissue inducers (Ellansé), with double volumizing and biostimulating action. "The injected filling gel immediately corrects the volumes and then it is gradually reabsorbed, and a biocompatible polymer then takes over to stimulate the natural production of collagen and induce long-term tissue regeneration, densify the dermis and improve skin quality" , explains Dr. David Modiano, aesthetic physician.

Interest? "The results are more natural, without risk of overcorrection, and last two years. You can restructure a face, fill temples or cheekbones, or correct a chin."
