What is Facial Rejuvenation?
Experience the difference of a personalized, physician-administered facial rejuvenation treatment program at Shire Facial Plastic Surgery.
As we age, our skin cells gradually lose their ability to renew and regenerate quickly. Combined with the effects of sun damage, smoking, and environmental factors, this leads to the breakdown of collagen and elastic fibers, as well as the appearance of brown spots and pigmentation changes. Together, these factors contribute to the visible signs of aging skin:
Dr. Shire offers evidence-based skin care to treat aging skin. Read his blog post "Skin-Care That Really Works... and Why!"
- Fine lines, medium-deep lines, and wrinkles
- Texture changes and volume loss
- Enlarged pores
- Dull complexion
- Brown spots and red dilated vessels
- Adult onset of acne
- Pre-skin cancer and skin cancer
To restore and revitalize your skin's appearance while preventing future damage, a physician-administered facial rejuvenation program is crucial. Dr. Shire will conduct a thorough examination of the skin on your face, neck, and décolleté and design a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Our facial rejuvenation skincare products are carefully researched and tested. All products used in Dr. Shire's skincare program are based on evidence-based science and contain bioavailable, highly effective ingredients. Depending on your needs, your treatment may include the following:
Retinoids
These Vitamin A derivatives accelerate skin cell turnover, reduce brown spots and acne, help prevent skin cancer, and stimulate new collagen production, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
Hydration
Modern hydration science revolves around hyaluronic acid. Unlike heavy moisturizers of the past, hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that retains moisture. As we age, levels of hyaluronic acid decrease, leading to dry, lifeless skin. Our facial rejuvenation treatments use patented formulas that allow deeper skin penetration than any other hyaluronic acid products available.
Sunscreen
Proper sunscreen use is essential in any skincare program. Dr. Shire prescribes zinc-based UVA and UVB sunscreens for daily use year-round, providing protection during regular activities and special sun exposure.
Anti-aging
The latest in anti-aging treatments, neuropeptides such as Matrixyl help reduce fine lines by mimicking the skin's natural regeneration process.
Antioxidants
Topical Vitamin C is a key ingredient in facial rejuvenation, as it stimulates collagen production and helps lighten brown spots.
Cleansers
Dr. Shire prescribes cleansers based on patient needs, including those that incorporate hyaluronic acid for deep cleansing and hydration.
