As reported in health journals, magazines and by experts of nutrition & beauty, the signs of aging are unavoidable, but there are options. Education and technology have revealed major advancements for plastic surgery and aesthetics but we must also understand the importance of a healthy diet and lifestyle.
OUR DNA.
We all fall victim to our unique human genetics and physiology, however, understanding how our lifestyle and the environment effect the aging process is essential in reducing the signs of aging. It’s important for people to be informed of the effects of sun damage, smoking, neglect and pollution in order to maintain healthy skin tone and texture.
NUTRITION & SKIN CARE.
In the fight to slow the aging process, it’s important to develop a balance of nutrition and a proper skin care regime.
Your body and skin performs best when it’s well nourished, therefore a balanced diet will provide skin cells with essential vitamins, minerals and amino acids to ensure optimal cellular and body function. Deficiencies in certain nutrients can cause skin conditions and limit the skins ability to heal and renew itself. Look for super foods such as blueberries which are bursting with antioxidants and flavor.
Nutrition is only part of the anti-aging equation, however, for it does little to protect skin from the outside elements. Quality skin care products help restore moisture, elasticity and PH balance and can provide protection from the sun’s damaging UVA & UVB rays. At Lee Plastic Surgery & Laser Center we recommend Vi Derm products and our patients report exceptional results!
GENETICS & LIFESTYLE.
Our lifestyle can influence the anti-aging process as much as our genetics. The effects of sun damage, chronic dehydration and smoking cause skin discoloration, wrinkles and a lack of elasticity.
As far as genetics are concerned, each person’s physiology is as unique as they are. Skin care, lifestyle and nutrition can certainly slow down the clock, but ultimately genetics win in the end. Today, plastic surgery and non-surgical fillers have reached an all-time high in popularity with 69% of Americans who report an interest in exploring their options for a more youthful appearance or for cosmetic and corrective purposes.
PRESERVE & RESTORE YOUR APPEARANCE.
The popularity of plastic surgery is in part due to the advancements in surgical and laser treatments. In order to fight genetics and restore a more youthful appearance, plastic surgeons are able to transform targeted areas with a natural result. In addition, more targeted procedures are available to zero in on brows, arms, the abdomen, thighs, forehead, eyelids, etc. A highly trained, board certified plastic surgeon can help restore your youth, enhance your appearance and restore confidence.
There are alternatives to surgery known as peels, laser treatments and dermal fillers. In fact, they are incredibly popular and use is widespread beyond Hollywood. Patients often may elect to postpone surgery to explore these non-surgical alternatives.
Always remember, as each patient is unique, it is best to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon who can explain the latest procedures and treatments that are available to you and will accomplish your desired goals. Best of all, with so many advancements, as well exceptional financial programs, patients can truly explore their best options.
Dr. Lee, board certified plastic surgeon, invites you to come in for a free consultation and discover your best options. As our patients will say in their own words, he always has our patients' best interests in mind.
