Patient discussion about rhytid.

Q. Are there supplements that will get rid of FINE wrinkles in the skin. I am 62 male, and starting to age.

A. I'm not really sure if they do or not, but here is a good site on how to get rid of wrinkles: http://www.getridofthings.com/get-rid-of-wrinkles.htm Hope this helps.

Q. What diet should I take on to reduce this excessive wrinkling? I am 34 and my skin looks much older. My facial skin is sagging. It is also very dry and dull. My face glow has reduced. Couple of years back I was healthy and I had a glowing skin and a very bright face. I have used some of the cosmetics but in vain and it exceeds my budget too. So I thought to try for good diet pattern to support my skin clarity. What diet should I take on to reduce this excessive wrinkling?

A. recovering damaged skin and collagen is not likely...sorry..but you can avoid more damage by doing a very simple thing- USE SUNBLOCK!!!
the most damaging thing to our skin is sun radiation. all those creams that supposedly protect your skin and revitalizing it- are much less affective then just using simple sun block.

Nonanimal stabilized hyaluronic acid for lip augmentation and facial rhytid ablation.
4) The progression of aging results in a deepening of the nasolabial crease or sulcus (the etched rhytid at the base of the NLF) and an exacerbation of the NLF (the mound of tissue lateral to the crease).
These surface wounds and their effect on the dermis promote neocol-lagenesis, providing rhytid reduction and minimizing dermal atrophic scarring as well as smoothing the skin surface, although much of the effect of the treatment is due to the nonablative heating of the dermis.
