The skin changes associated with ageing appear in the 20s and 30s. You can delay them to a certain extent by paying attention to external factors such as a healthy diet, regular exercise or getting enough sleep each night. Collagen and elastic fibres are constantly broken down as we age, leading to wrinkles on our skin. The subcutaneous tissue that supplies the skin with nutrients slowly shrinks and becomes thinner, mainly due to the loss of moisture in this area, which can be caused by many different reasons, such as diabetes or other diseases that do not provide enough proteins for cell growth.
The mimic muscles are firmly attached to the facial skin. If the mimic muscles are tensed, a visible wrinkle appears. Depending on which muscle is tensed, joy, astonishment, anger or annoyance can be expressed with the face, astonishment, anger or annoyance. Especially the glabellar wrinkles between the eyebrows often convey the impression of displeasure. These are therefore also called "wrinkles of anger" and give rise to the so-called "evil eye". Often, however, these wrinkles are only the result of great concentration or tension, e.g. when working at a computer or driving a car. driving a car.
The repeated tensing of the facial muscles leads to a permanent the facial wrinkles become permanently deepened over the years. The wrinkles remain even when the muscles are not tense.
The aim of an effective wrinkle treatment is to prevent the muscles from muscle tension and lifting the already existing wrinkles. For this purpose Botulinum toxin, or Botox for short, is available for this purpose.
Botulinum toxin is a naturally occurring bacterial protein. When it is injected into a muscle, it specifically blocks the nerve impulses there. As a result, the muscle in question can no longer be tensed as usual. as usual. Other nerve functions - such as feeling or touching through the skin - are not affected. through the skin - are not affected.
The botulinum toxin solution is injected directly into the muscle (or surrounding area) with a very fine needle. directly into (or around) the muscle that is causing the wrinkles. causing the wrinkles. Due to the use of very fine injection needles pain is minimal; in some cases there is a brief burning sensation. occurs briefly.
The full effect unfolds after 3 - 5 days. It lasts approx. 3 - 6 months. By repeating the treatment, a lasting effect of up to lasting effect of up to one year.
As with any other injection into the skin, in a very small number of cases, skin skin irritation, skin infection or slight swelling may occur. swelling may occur. Rarely, there will be a small bruise at the injection site. haematoma. However, all these undesirable effects disappear within a few days. disappear within a few days.

Botox is always an option when wrinkles have formed as a result of the the repeated tensing of the mimic muscles. For wrinkles, caused mainly by the ageing of the skin, there are additional additional treatment options are available, such as peeling, relining with filler materials or laser treatment are also available.
Correction of wrinkles, scars, tissue deficiencies in the face through tissue injection with the patient's own fat. Wrinkle injections with the patient's own fat, also known as lipofilling or lipotransfer, has developed parallel to liposuction for several years. liposuction. With the use of the body's own fat to to compensate for or fill wrinkles, all the disadvantages of foreign of foreign materials can be avoided. With a special technique the fat cells are very gently removed from the donor area and then and reintroduced into the desired cell with the finest cannulas. The majority of the fat grafts can heal again at the treated site. heal at the treated site. The methodological improvements in fat preparation and injection and injection techniques have led to a steady increase in the popularity of with autologous fat has grown steadily over the years. The decisive advantage of autologous fat is its compatibility as the body's own material. material.

Very often the cells are harvested from the thighs, buttocks or abdomen. The fat cells are prepared and injected injected into the designated area, which is sunken, wrinkled or wrinkled. Thanks to the methodological improvements in fat preparation and injection and injection technique, a large proportion of the cells can heal and reline thus relining sunken cheeks, wrinkles or lips. Depending on the individual findings, wrinkle injections with autologous fat take 1-2 hours, depending on the individual findings. A stay in hospital is not necessary. After 1-3 days, the patient is socially fit again.

However, these can be However, these can be easily covered up by the use of cosmetics. Extremely rare side effects are: Sensory disturbances, cyst formation, lipogranulomas, wound infections in the removal or filling area, contour irregularities, or scarring. As no foreign bodies such as implants are used in this method, no allergic reactions can occur.
Correction of wrinkles, scars, tissue deficiency in the face by tissue injection with hyaluronic acid. A very popular method to stop the signs of ageing of the skin is the is tissue injection with hyaluronic acid, a sugar molecule that is a sugar molecule that is naturally part of the human skin. With the help of various filling materials, wrinkles and volume loss can be wrinkles and loss of volume can be treated very effectively, without much treated in a very uncomplicated way.

Temporary redness and swelling, as well as small bruises at the injection site, are normal. bruising at the injection site. However, the use of cosmetics these can be covered up without any problems.
