Many of us will suffer from an array of skin problems as we get older, so it’s good to know that you don’t have to surrender to them without a fight. As someone who has never had experience of any skin treatments it can be confusing to know exactly what treatments do what, and more importantly what you might benefit from. In order to make things a little easier for you, here are the most common skin problems and the skin treatments that can solve the problem.

Varicose Veins

As we get older some of us will suffer from the appearance of small varicose veins, as well as thread and spider veins usually found around the thighs, knees, ankles, and, calves. These blood vessels are usually red or blue in appearance that appear below to surface, in extreme cases it may cover a vast area of skin. The problem with varicose veins is that they can make you feel self-conscious and that can have a huge effect on your confidence. Treatment for varicose veins is called Sclerotherapy; it is a minimally invasive treatment that includes a mild solution being injected into the veins, this causes them to collapse and disappear. Although the treatment doesn’t prevent new veins forming it does reduce the appearance of varicose veins that have already formed.

Loss of Elasticity: Wrinkles & Lines

Unfortunately, this is a problem that everyone faces but you don’t have to endure it and let it damage your confidence – leading to stress and more wrinkles! There are many treatments available to combat these common problems that don’t involve invasive surgery such as; Dermal Fillers, Muscle Relaxant treatment, and Sculptra. Each treatment will reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, dermal fillers are used to boost the elasticity of your skin allowing you to feel more at home in your skin.

Dull, Lifeless Skin

Youthful skin often has a glow that makes you feel radiant; unfortunately this can fade with age or because of common skin problems suffered such as acne. The Dermaroller treatment is designed to produce clear, bright and most importantly healthy skin. This treatment is beneficial for other skin problems such as stretch marks and scars. This procedure is common among celebrities as it leaves you with skin that appears much more youthful.
