Facial rejuvenation for middle-aged women: a combined approach with minimally invasive procedures

Alberto Goldman et al. Clin Interv Aging. .

Abstract

Facial rejuvenation is a significant process involved in restoring youthfulness. The introduction of less invasive procedures has increased acceptance of such procedures. Often a combination of different techniques allows individualized treatment with optimal outcomes. Furthermore, this leads to a natural look without a significant downtime. We report herein the use of such a combined approach in middle-aged women with particular emphasis on botulinum toxin type A, dermal fillers, and chemical peels.

Keywords: botulinum toxin; chemical peels; facial rejuvenation; fillers; middle-aged females.
