Aging well – the role of minimally invasive aesthetic dermatological procedures in women over 65

Abstract

With respect to aesthetic procedures, women over 65 are different from younger women. More scientific investigation is necessary to better meet needs of this growing part of the population. Available data suggest that aesthetic dermatology can make a major contribution to the complex matter of aging well.

Midfacial rejuvenation by hyaluronic acid fillers and subcutaneous adipose tissue – A new concept

“…These include the low volume deep cheek placement injection or liquid lift and multiple layer techniques [9][10][11]. The latter include among others the tower technique and the pillars and tie beams (PTT) technique [12,13].…”

Age reversing modalities: An overview

“…Here, injection of botox immediately superior to the eyebrow is relatively contraindicated because the muscular relaxation it induces may cause brow ptosis. [19] The alternative is minimal botox injection a millimetre inferior to the eyebrows to somewhat weaken the depressor effect of the superior fibres of the orbicularis oculi.…”

Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers: Safety and Efficacy for the Treatment of Wrinkles, Aging Skin, Body Sculpturing and Medical Conditions

“…Therefore, it can be used without skin testing. [3][4][5] There is number of factors that impact HA filler persistence like HA concentration, percentage of cross-linkage, type of cross-linkage, water binding capacity, and injection technique. Monophasic gels seem to be more stable compared to diphasic gels.…”

“…The cross-linking agents also have an impact on connective tissue reaction to HA fillers. [3][4][5] Injection technique can play a role in longevity of the volumizing effect. Injection into the deep dermis has been shown to increase de novo collagen synthesis, hypothesized to be the result of fibroblast stretching.…”
