With age, your skin thins and decreases in elasticity.  As a result, wrinkles, age spots, and skin tags become common. There are various ways to help improve your skin on your own such as reducing alcohol consumption, increasing water consumption, wearing sunscreen, not smoking, and avoiding hot showers. These “self-help” methods will give you beautiful skin but are not a quick fix for skin that is already damaged from all these elements.  

We see a lot of patients in our medical spa and it is no secret that the areas that people want a quick fix for are typically the face, hands, eyes, and neck areas. We have many treatments available to help improve the signs of aging such as fillers/injectables, facials, laser treatments, micro-needling, product, and much more. 

If you already have damage in any of these areas, it is best to start making positive changes to your daily routine now. If you want to improve these areas immediately, it is best to schedule a consultation with one of our experienced team members at Victory MedSpa. 

Four Areas of the Body That Show Signs of Aging First 

Hands  

The hands are almost always exposed to the elements as we only wear gloves in the wintertime. We expose them directly to the sun as we are driving or even as we are walking outside. As a result, it is important to apply sunscreen to the back of your hands as well as apply a hand cream daily. The hands start to show signs of aging in one’s 20s, but many people notice the signs in their 30s and 40s. It is important to start caring for your hands now. If your hands show signs of aging and you want fantastic results, then consider laser treatment, micro-needling, or even a chemical peel on this area. 

Face 

Hyperpigmentation often occurs as we grow older and can be greatly affected by the amount of sun exposure our face has. In addition to eating healthy and drinking a lot of water, it is important to wear sunscreen daily and even consider a brightening serum to help even your skin tone. For wrinkles and hyperpigmentation that do not go away easily fillers, chemical peels, micro-needling, as well as laser treatments can be offered at our medical spa. 

Eyes 

Our eyes may appear sunken, have dark circles around them, or develop fine lines as we laugh or smile. It is important to keep this area of your face well hydrated, drink a lot of water, get enough sleep, and consume less salt to reduce any puffiness. Alcohol is also a major contributor of puffiness in this area. If you are looking for a more satisfying improvement, consider a muscle relaxer or filler in the area in order to improve the aging effect. 

Neck 

Many people dread growing older and developing a “turkey neck”, but unfortunately this area is one of the first to show signs of aging due to how much sun exposure this area gets as well as how thin the skin is. It is important to use the same product you use on your face on your neck as well. There are a variety of treatments the team at Victory MedSpa can perform in order to produce a more desirable effect as well.
