In Your 20s
The 20s are a time in your life when you may begin to notice early signs of lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and other skin tone and texture irregularities. Additionally, you may also start to consider whether you might benefit from a procedure designed to enhance a particular area or feature of your face or body. Some of the most common cosmetic treatments and procedures for people in their 20s include:
- Skin Care and Laser Rejuvenation
- BOTOX® Cosmetic
- Dermal Fillers
- Rhinoplasty
- Breast Augmentation
- Coolsculpting®
- Liposuction
In Your 30s
When you reach your 30s, signs of aging and the toll of everyday stress generally start to become more apparent on your face and body. This is also a stage in life when the elasticity of skin and muscle tissues begins to decrease which causes them to lose their ability to bounce back after being stretched or pulled, particularly for women who have experienced the physical demands of pregnancy and breast-feeding. When combined with a healthy lifestyle, the following treatments and procedures can be especially beneficial for people in their 30s:
- BOTOX® Cosmetic
- Dermal Fillers
- Skin Care and Laser Rejuvenation
- Breast Augmentation
- Breast Lift
- Coolsculpting®
- Tummy Tuck
- Liposuction
- Mommy Makeover
In Your 40s
Thankfully, being in your 40s no longer carries the “over-the-hill” stigma it once did. However, signs of aging will generally be more prominent than in previous stages of life. For example: facial lines and wrinkles tend to be more visible; volume loss commonly occurs in the cheeks and mid-face; skin on the face and neck typically starts to droop; fat often accumulates in hard-to-target areas of the body; and the breasts generally begin to sag and lose their youthful contour. For people experiencing the visible effects of aging in their 40s, some effective treatments and procedures include:
- BOTOX® Cosmetic
- Dermal Fillers
- Laser Rejuvenation and Skin Care
- Facelift
- Eyelid Rejuvenation
- Rhinoplasty
- Breast Enhancement
- Body Contouring
- Coolsculpting®
- Mommy Makeover
In Your 50s and Beyond
By the time you reach your 50s, environmental factors, heredity, and the natural process of aging will likely all have affected the contour and aesthetics of your face and body. Common cosmetic concerns at this stage in life often include age spots and sun damage, deep lines and wrinkles, excess, sagging skin, stubborn fat buildups, noticeable volume loss, and more – any and all of which can make you look older than you actually are. Though the development of many of these perceived issues is often inevitable, there are an expansive number of cosmetic enhancement options that can help you maintain a more youthful appearance throughout your 50s and beyond. These include:
- BOTOX® Cosmetic
- Skin Care and Laser Skin Resurfacing
- Dermal Fillers
- Facelift
- Eyelid Rejuvenation
- Breast Enhancement
- Body Contouring
- Coolsculpting®
