Other treatments may be used either as alternatives, or in combination with a facelift.
- Resurfacing techniques reduce surface wrinkles and can smooth the skin by removing damaged outer layers. Options include chemical peels and laser resurfacing.
- Pulsed light therapy stimulates the middle layer of the skin to produce more collagen, which plumps out fine lines and wrinkles.
- Tissue augmentation plumps out deep wrinkles with injections of collagen or other types of filler.
- Botulinum toxin injections can flatten out wrinkles that appear in your skin when you smile or frown. This is particularly suitable for forehead lines and wrinkles around your eyes.
- Creams, gels and beauty treatments may help tighten your skin. However, there is no scientific proof that these work.
