Wrinkles and Fine Lines

Home » Conditions » Wrinkles and Fine Lines

Welcome to the Gallery of Aesthetics, South Jordan’s premier medical spa and wellness center. Wrinkles and fine lines are common signs of aging due to decreased collagen production, sun exposure, and repetitive facial movements. We provide cutting-edge aesthetic treatments to reverse the signs of aging and help you reclaim your youthful glow, such as neuromodulators, dermal fillers, and Sculptra.

Neuromodulators

Neuromodulators, including Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport, are non-surgical treatments offered at the Gallery of Aesthetics. These injectables work by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for causing dynamic wrinkles. By targeting specific facial muscles, neuromodulators reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines and frown lines.

How Neuromodulators Work

Neuromodulators block the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that signals muscle contraction. They target the underlying muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, preventing them from contracting excessively. This temporary relaxation of the muscles smooths out the overlying skin, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and expression lines.

Neuromodulators: Results

The results of neuromodulators typically become noticeable within a few days to a week after the treatment. The effects last three to six months, depending on the individual and the specific product used. To maintain the results, follow-up treatments are generally recommended every few months to keep the muscles relaxed and minimize the reappearance of wrinkles.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm, Restylane, Radiesse, Versa, and Belotero, are non-surgical treatments provided at the Gallery of Aesthetics. These injectables consist of hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible substances that restore volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial contours, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

How Dermal Fillers Work

Dermal fillers work by replenishing lost volume and stimulating collagen production. They contain hyaluronic acid, which naturally occurs in the body, or other biocompatible materials. When injected into targeted areas, the fillers add volume underneath the skin, plumping the skin and smoothing out wrinkles, lines, and hollow areas. Over time, some fillers can also promote collagen synthesis, further enhancing skin elasticity and rejuvenation.

Dermal Fillers: Results

The results of dermal fillers are usually visible immediately after the treatment, though there might be minor swelling or bruising that subsides quickly. The duration of results varies depending on the type of filler used but typically lasts between six months to two years. Maintenance treatments are recommended in intervals of a few months to over a year, depending on the filler used.

Sculptra

Sculptra is a unique injectable used for volume restoration. Unlike traditional fillers, Sculptra is made from poly-L-lactic acid, a biocompatible substance that stimulates collagen production. It addresses facial volume loss, deep wrinkles, and sagging skin. Sculptra encourages your body to produce its natural filler, leading to overall improvements in skin texture and tone.

How Sculptra Works

Sculptra works by stimulating the body’s natural collagen production. The main ingredient, poly-L-lactic acid, acts as a biostimulator, triggering the skin’s regenerative response. When injected, Sculptra stimulates fibroblasts, which are cells responsible for collagen synthesis. Over time, the increased collagen production restores volume, improves elasticity, and reduces facial creases.

Sculptra: Results

The results of Sculptra are not immediate, as the process involves stimulating collagen production. Gradual improvements are typically seen over several weeks to months. The results can last up to two years, making Sculptra a long-lasting option. Maintenance treatments may be recommended every couple of months to sustain the effects.
