Rejuvenation
Facial rejuvenation is a common concern for many people, regardless of age or gender. Over time, facial skin can show signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, a less defined facial oval and loss of volume. These changes can affect self-confidence and self-image.
That's why numerous techniques and procedures are available to help rejuvenate the appearance of the face. Aesthetic medicine offers non-invasive treatments such as injections of hyaluronic acid, botulinum toxin (Botox), radiofrequency treatments and many others. These treatments aim to reduce the signs of aging, restore lost volume and improve skin texture.
For more extensive corrections, cosmetic surgery offers options such as face and neck lifts, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), rhinoplasty (nose surgery), facial liposuction and other procedures customized to each patient's needs.
The aim of facial rejuvenation is to give the skin a smoother, firmer and younger appearance, while preserving its natural appearance.
Wrinkles, fine lines
RIDES
Wrinkles are lines or folds that form on the skin over time. They are often caused by the skin's natural aging process, loss of collagen and elasticity, as well as sun exposure and other environmental factors. Wrinkles can appear on the face, neck, hands and other parts of the body.
RIDULES
Fine lines are small wrinkles, generally finer and shallower than more pronounced wrinkles. They can be caused by repetitive facial expressions, lack of skin hydration, or exposure to environmental elements. Fine lines are often seen around the eyes (known as "crow's feet"), around the mouth and on the forehead.

RESHAPE THE OVAL OF THE FACE
Sagging of the facial oval is a natural phenomenon associated with the aging process. Several factors can contribute to skin sagging in this area, resulting in a loss of firmness and definition of the jawline.
Here are some common reasons for sagging facial contours:
- Loss of collagen and elastin: With age, the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins essential for skin firmness and elasticity, diminishes. This can lead to sagging skin.
- Decreased bone density: Age-related decreases in bone density can also influence facial structure, contributing to oval sagging.
- Fat loss: loss of subcutaneous fat volume, which can occur with age, can give the impression of sagging skin.
- Sun exposure: Damage caused by excessive sun exposure can weaken skin structure and accelerate the aging process.
- Lifestyle: Lifestyle habits such as smoking, stress, unbalanced diet and insufficient hydration can also contribute to sagging skin.

Facial sagging
Facial sagging, also known as facial skin laxity or facial ptosis, refers to a phenomenon where the skin of the face loses its firmness and tone, which can lead to a sagging or drooping appearance. This process is often associated with aging, but can also be influenced by other factors.
Signs of facial sagging can include sagging cheeks, jowls, a double chin, pronounced nasolabial folds and a less-defined facial oval.
The main causes of facial sagging include:
- Loss of collagen and elastin: Collagen and elastin are essential structural proteins that maintain the skin's firmness and elasticity. With age, production of these proteins declines, resulting in sagging skin.
- Subcutaneous fat loss: Reduced subcutaneous fat volume in the face can also contribute to skin sagging.
- Decreased bone density: Age-related loss of bone density can affect facial structure, leading to sagging skin.
- Sun exposure: Damage caused by excessive sun exposure, such as wrinkles and loss of elasticity, can accelerate the process of skin sagging.
- Lifestyle: Lifestyle habits such as smoking, poor diet, stress and lack of sleep can also affect skin health and contribute to facial sagging.
