Alternatives to Plastic Surgery
 Now you don't need a facelift to look years younger says Dr. Pat Wexler, one of the most sought-after dermatologists in the country.
First, Are You a Sinker or a Sagger? Sinkers tend to see changes in their 20s such as crows feet, lines around the lips and on the cheeks. Saggers see fat drifting downwards over time; the jaw line squares, fat pads appear under the eyes, the brow line flattens. Can fat actually make you look younger? According to Dr. Wexler, if you're a sinker, fat taken from your upper leg and injected into your face can fill out your cheeks and give you a lift. The "Miracle" Anti-Aging Cream Dr. Wexler says there is such thing as a miracle anti-aging cream…and it's sunscreen. Look for Parsol, a new ingredient in sunscreen that protects against the UVA and UVB rays that cause cancer and aging. Dr. Wexler recommends a minimum of SPF 30 if you're going to be outdoors. Other Treatments ThermaCool, the new "lunchtime facelift," doesn't require you to go under the knife and has no recovery time. Very deep volumes of energy are delivered to the deep layers of the skin, which tightens collagen. Dr. Wexler says jaw lines get tighter just like a neck lift; around the eyes brows lift and crows feet are reduced. Dr. Wexler says results are not immediate—you can usually see full results in three to six months with just one treatment. Botox ® is also used for brow lifts, to tighten necklines and upper lids, and to get rid of crows feet. However, Dr. Wexler cautions that too much Botox® can make you look frozen and inexpressive. Dr. Wexler also mentioned a new product that boosts collagen production and can rejuvenate skin called TNS Recovery Complex. TNS is comprised from six natural human growth factors found in normal healthy skin. Dr. Wexler told us the factors are engineered from human foreskin! Related Information:
