If you’re tired of looking tired, it may be time to consider a change. You take care of yourself, but if your reflection feels unfamiliar, we can help. Everyone experiences the effects of aging, though some show it sooner than others. You don’t have to settle for looking older than you feel. Today’s wrinkle treatment options are simple, effective, and more accessible than ever. Small, targeted updates can make a meaningful difference in how rested and confident you look.
Laser resurfacing is designed to help your skin behave like younger skin by boosting collagen and elastin. These two key building blocks decrease over time, and our ability to produce them naturally drops as we age. Modern laser resurfacing offers multiple options, and understanding the differences will help you choose the best fit for your goals and lifestyle.
At Celibre Medical, we offer both ablative and non-ablative laser resurfacing. While each stimulates collagen production, they do it in different ways.
Ablative lasers remove the top layers of skin. Both the epidermis and dermis are affected, which triggers new collagen and elastin in the dermis and encourages a fresh epidermis to form. This approach can dramatically improve wrinkles, sun damage, and skin laxity. The trade-off is recovery time, which usually ranges from four to seven days.
Non-ablative lasers work beneath the surface without removing skin. Heat energy in the dermis stimulates collagen and elastin while the outer layer stays intact. There’s little to no downtime, but results tend to be more subtle than ablative resurfacing.
Laser resurfacing is an important part of wrinkle treatment, but it isn’t always the full solution. Many people also see benefits from injectable treatments like Botox or Dysport.
These relax specific facial movements that contribute to lines such as forehead creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet. They can also help lift certain features and enhance the overall results of resurfacing.
Dermal fillers, including Restylane, Juvederm, and Restylane Lyft, play a key role in smoothing deeper lines and restoring lost volume. These hyaluronic acid gels soften creases around the mouth and nose, replenish hollow cheeks and temples, and improve the appearance of jowls. Fillers attract water over time, so results continue to develop. They also support collagen production, making them a strong complement to laser treatments.
Aging isn’t always simple, but your appearance should reflect how you feel. Working with a skilled cosmetic dermatology provider will help you understand which treatments best match your goals. Not everyone needs every option discussed, but a thorough evaluation sets the foundation for a plan that’s tailored to you.
At Celibre Medical, we guide patients through this process every day. We take the time to understand your needs, recommend the right combination of wrinkle treatments, and deliver results that help you look refreshed and confident. If you’re ready to learn more or want to explore which treatments may be right for you, we’re here to help. Consultations are complimentary, and we’d love to meet you.
