Injectable facial treatments Skeletonized Face

The way our skin ages is unique. It reflects our genes, our habits, and the climate we live in. However, there are two basic aging patterns observed in the face: either fat atrophy predominates, causing the face to lose volume and appear more skeletal, or facial elongation occurs due to tissue laxity, with the lower jaw gradually merging into the neck.

In addition, static and dynamic wrinkles appear as a result of changes in the skin’s composition of elastin, collagen, and ground substances. Pigmentation disorders and brown spots develop due to disturbances in melanin metabolism, and finally, hyperkeratoses occur as a result of impaired regeneration of the basal layer of the skin.

If you belong to the group of people whose face becomes thinner with age, whose temples hollow out, and whose neck muscles become more pronounced, we have good—and encouraging—news. Your appearance can be reversed more easily and you can look younger compared to individuals who develop significant skin laxity, where excess skin distorts the contour of the lower jaw and the angle of the neck.

This condition is caused by fat atrophy or loss, and the recommended and permanent method of correction is fat transfer or fat grafting. (You can read more about fat transfer here: https://www.theoplastics.gr/gr/aesthetic-plastic-s...). Alternatively, if surgery seems difficult or you need time to decide, injectable treatments such as hyaluronic acid (a biological polysaccharide) and biostimulators (Ellansé, Radiesse, Sculptra) may be used.
