Hi I have deep lines on my chest which I absolutely hate. What do you recommend to get rid of them as much as possible?
Hello! TTG Content Coordinator Si Yau here. There are many tweakments available to tackle lines and wrinkles available. It is extremely important that you find an excellent practitioner who can properly assess your concerns and offer further advice. Deeper and more pronounced wrinkles and folds are challenging to treat but here are a few tweakments options:
Injectables – Injectable treatments that can address lines and wrinkles include toxins and dermal fillers, PRP and collagen stimulators. toxins works by inhibiting the function of the muscles which cause dynamic wrinkles in areas such as the forehead and around the eyes, whereas fillers work to replace lost volume and structure at deeper levels of the skin. Some injectables, such as PRP and collagen stimulators, as well as products like Profhilo, work by stimulating the body’s own repair mechanisms and rejuvenate the skin from within.
Energy based devices – Wrinkles are also the main target of many energy-based devices such as HIFU/ultrasound, laser resurfacing, radiofrequecy. While all of these technologies work in different ways the principle is the same, using heat/energy to create a wound healing response in the skin which encourages the production of new collagen. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) can also be used to treat fine wrinkles.
Microneedling/collagen induction therapy – Microneedling involves the use of tiny needles to make minute holes in the skin. This is usually done using a pen or roller device. It is also known as “collagen induction therapy” (CIT) because it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. It is minimally-invasive and can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and scars.
