With cosmetic surgeries you can achieve amazingly dramatic results within a few weeks, but many of us rather seek for less radical and more natural ways to boost our appearance, without the downsides (pain, health complications and cost implications) of an operation. There are plenty of non-surgical, lifting skin tightening techniques that promise to improve the texture and firmness of the most problematic areas such as the face, chest and the neck. Most of these procedures aim to rev up your skin through collagen stimulation in all layers of the skin.
Lifting skin tightening medical treatments can tackle a number of age and environment related skin problems:
- Sagging skin that has lost its elasticity
- Skin damage
- Wrinkles, crow’s feet
- Dull, colorless complexion
- Pigmentation
