A comprehensive guide to modern wrinkle treatment methods.

RF Lifting

RF lifting is a hardware procedure that stimulates collagen synthesis using radio frequency waves. The technique is aimed at tightening the skin and improving its tone, which helps smooth out wrinkles and tighten facial contours.

The advantages of the procedure are its painlessness and no need for rehabilitation. After just a few sessions, a tightening effect is noticeable, which makes RF lifting popular among those looking for quick results. However, to achieve a lasting effect, a course of procedures is required, and the result lasts for a limited time.

Botox

Botox is an injection of botulinum toxin that relaxes facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles. The procedure is especially effective for smoothing out wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, and in the crow's feet area. The key advantage of Botox is a quick and noticeable result that makes the face look fresh and rested. It is worth considering that, just like with RF lifting, the effect of the procedure is temporary and requires regular repetitions to maintain the result. There is also a risk of overcorrection, so it is important to contact experienced specialists.
Injection techniques

Biorevitalization

Biorevitalization is an injection procedure in which hyaluronic acid is delivered to the deep layers of the skin for intensive hydration and restoration. The method effectively improves the texture and density of the skin, restoring its elasticity and healthy radiance.

The main benefits of the procedure include deep restoration of the skin's moisture balance and noticeable smoothing of wrinkles. However, biorevitalization may cause slight discomfort, as well as temporary bruising at the injection sites. Several sessions are required to achieve lasting results.

Wrinkle Blanching

Blanching is a method of injecting wrinkle fillers into the skin, smoothing it from the inside. This procedure is especially effective for deep folds, such as the nasolabial folds.

The procedure provides an immediate effect, allowing you to see the results immediately. However, the method is not universal: it is not suitable for all areas of the face, and in some cases it may cause a feeling of heaviness or slight swelling. The choice of filler and injection technique requires a highly qualified specialist.

Anti-wrinkle pillow

An anti-wrinkle pillow is a special accessory with an anatomical shape, designed to prevent skin creases during sleep. Its design minimizes contact of the face with the surface, reducing the risk of new wrinkles.

Anti-wrinkle pillow

The key advantage of the pillow is its simplicity and effectiveness in wrinkle prevention, especially for those who prefer to sleep on their side. However, it is not able to affect existing wrinkles and requires getting used to. The pillow perfectly complements regular skin care, maintaining its youth.

Exercises or gymnastics for wrinkles

A set of exercises aimed at strengthening muscles and improving skin tone. Such techniques help smooth out wrinkles, improve microcirculation and prevent sagging tissue.

The main advantage of gymnastics is its accessibility - exercises can be done at any time and without expense. In addition, it is suitable for all ages and skin types. However, regularity is required to achieve results. The effect is noticeable after several weeks of constant practice, which makes gymnastics part of long-term skin care.

Massage for wrinkles

A manual or hardware technique that improves blood circulation, stimulates collagen production and helps tighten the skin. Regular massage relaxes facial muscles, which prevents the formation of new wrinkles, and strengthens facial contours, reducing the risk of sagging tissue.

The main benefit of massage is its ability to comprehensively affect the skin, improving its tone and texture. However, to achieve maximum effect, it is important to know the correct techniques to avoid stretching the skin. It is best to entrust the procedure to professionals or study special techniques beforehand.

Taping

Taping is a method of applying special adhesive tapes to the skin to fix muscles in the desired position and improve skin tone. It helps relax tense areas, stimulate blood circulation, and prevent the formation of new wrinkles.

This method is available for home use and is inexpensive. However, for proper use, it is important to understand facial anatomy and learn the application technique. The effect of the procedure is temporary, so regular repetition is required for long-term results.

Darsonval

Darsonval

This hardware treatment method is based on the effect of electrical impulses on the skin. The procedure improves microcirculation, stimulates metabolic processes and accelerates cell renewal. Darsonval helps reduce fine wrinkles, increase skin elasticity and restore its tone.

The method is suitable for home use, but requires caution. The device is not recommended for sensitive skin, or for those with rosacea or inflammation, as the pulses may increase irritation.

Fillers

Fillers are hyaluronic acid-based injections that fill wrinkles and restore lost skin volume. The procedure is suitable for correcting deep creases, such as nasolabial folds or marionette lines. The effect is noticeable immediately after injection: the skin appears smoother and firmer, and facial contours become more defined.

The advantage of fillers is their versatility and speed of action. However, the result is temporary, typically lasting 6-12 months, after which the procedure must be repeated. In some cases, swelling or mild discomfort may occur at the injection site.


Anti-wrinkle ointments

Cosmetic and pharmaceutical products that contain active ingredients such as retinoids, peptides, or hyaluronic acid. They moisturize, nourish the skin, and stimulate regeneration processes. Such products help smooth out fine wrinkles, improve skin texture, and increase its elasticity.

Ointments and creams are affordable and easy to use, but cannot eliminate deep wrinkles and require regular use to maintain the effect. Before using products with active ingredients, such as retinoids, it is recommended to consult a cosmetologist.

Anti-wrinkle patches

These are special stickers that fix the skin in certain areas, preventing creases and smoothing the surface. They work by limiting muscle movement and creating conditions for the skin to relax.

The advantages of such patches include ease of use and an immediate, albeit temporary, effect. They help visually smooth wrinkles before an important event or improve appearance after a sleepless night. However, their effect is short-lived and does not solve the problem of deep wrinkles. They should be used in combination with a comprehensive skin care regimen.


Homemade Masks

Face masks are one of the most affordable and versatile ways to moisturize and nourish the skin. You can make them yourself from natural ingredients or use ready-made cosmetic products. Masks help restore the skin's moisture balance, saturate it with beneficial substances, and improve tone.

They are more suitable for prevention and maintaining the general condition of the skin, as they cannot eliminate deep wrinkles. Regular use of masks will enhance the effect of anti-aging care.

Recommendations from a cosmetologist

Modern methods for combating wrinkles include a variety of approaches, from hardware procedures to home care rituals. However, as leading dermatocosmetologist, MD, and Librederm expert Evgenia Ikonnikova notes, regular care remains the foundation of youthful skin.

She emphasizes the importance of using professional anti-aging products, such as the Librederm Collagen Peptide line. These products are enriched with collagen, peptides, and hyaluronic acid, which help stimulate collagen synthesis, smooth wrinkles, and improve skin elasticity.


Collagen Peptide Lifting Serum provides an instant lifting effect to reduce wrinkles and strengthen the facial contours.


Collagen Peptide Night Cream actively nourishes the skin and promotes its restoration during sleep.

Collagen Peptide Day Cream SPF 15 provides deep hydration, helps maintain skin elasticity, helping to keep it young and healthy. A complex of UV filters protects the skin from the sun and the photoaging it causes.

In addition to cosmetic care, the doctor recommends:

  • A balanced diet rich in antioxidants and fatty acids.

  • Regular sleep and giving up bad habits.

  • Mandatory use of SPF products for protection from ultraviolet radiation.

An integrated approach using professional products, such as the Collagen Peptide line, proper nutrition, and competent procedures will help slow down the aging process and maintain youthful skin.
