Some of the most exciting changes in the medical profession have been in the area of cosmetic surgery. New techniques are constantly coming up to keep up with the ever increasing demand of patients who want to look their best. One of the most interesting trends in cosmetic surgery involving facial rejuvenation, is the evolution of non-surgical procedures. Let us consider the top four non-invasive facial rejuvenation procedures.

Botox insertion temporarily paralyze the muscles associated with wrinkles. By taking the stress out of these muscles, the face looks younger and more refreshed.

A chemical peel can help smooth the texture of the skin, as it consists of a chemical mixture that causes dead skin to slough off and eventually peel away. The regenerated skin is always less wrinkled than the old skin. This technique can be done in the patient’s home or at a dermatologist’s office. Nevertheless, if the procedure is being performed at home, it is advisable to seek out medical help before self-administering the peel.
