Wrinkle Treatments in Berlin

Wrinkle Treatments in Berlin

With increasing age, time naturally leaves its marks on our skin. We laugh a lot and develop warm-hearted laugh lines around our eyes. However, many are bothered by the altered facial appearance, as wrinkles can give us a grumpy expression. This makes us look older than we actually are.

As part of the natural aging process, the elasticity of our skin decreases and moisture is less effectively retained. The loss of fatty tissue and reduced collagen production also contribute to skin sagging. Unlike in our younger years, our skin no longer returns to its relaxed, smooth state. Wrinkles become permanently etched on the face.

Other factors include facial expressions and external influences that contribute to wrinkle formation. Stress, smoking, and an unbalanced diet are components that we should consider early on. Through a healthy lifestyle, we can prevent and delay wrinkles to a certain extent.

However, there comes a point where even expensive creams and plenty of fluid intake can no longer combat the signs of aging. Here, it may make sense to inquire about professional wrinkle treatment. Preventatively, Botox can be used from the mid-20s. For wrinkle reduction, we recommend starting treatment no earlier than the mid-30s.

Read on to learn everything about different types of wrinkles and suitable methods for wrinkle treatment in Berlin.

Dynamic and Static Wrinkles

In aesthetic surgery, a distinction is made between dynamic or mimic wrinkles and static wrinkles. Mimic wrinkles develop over time due to muscle movements in our face. When we laugh or stare intently at a screen, when we drink from a straw or blink – we have numerous muscles in our face that are responsible for our mimicry and expression. This naturally forms fine lines on our skin.

Static wrinkles increasingly develop due to skin aging, where the skin sags and can no longer withstand gravity. Our skin sags, looks tired, and furrows appear. Here, treatment with fillers is usually suitable to restore elasticity and volume. Dynamic wrinkles are often treated with Botox to relax the underlying muscles. However, at Dottore Caletti, we discuss an individual treatment with each patient, depending on your wishes and personal factors.

Dynamic and Static Wrinkles

Forehead wrinkle treatment Berlin

Wrinkles in the forehead area contribute a lot to our expression. Through them, we can reveal various emotional states. We frown or furrow our eyebrows to express distrust or anger.

The frown lines are short vertical furrows between the eyebrows. Once they have grown firmly into our facial features with age, they can give us a constantly grumpy expression. Horizontal wrinkles are also common on the forehead. They are also often called worry lines, as they can make their bearer look permanently worried or strained. For these reasons, many decide to consider wrinkle treatment, especially on the forehead.

Since these are dynamic wrinkles, treatment with Botox is particularly suitable. In this way, the muscles can relax, and the reduced movement can also prevent deeper furrows in the long term. In the case of already deep wrinkles, a combination with fillers, such as hyaluronic acid, can lead to the desired result.

Eye wrinkle treatment Berlin

Around the eyes, our facial skin is particularly thin and stores less fat. This makes the sensitive skin particularly susceptible to wrinkles, and these are almost unavoidable. This area is also always in motion, as even blinking uses the eye muscles. In addition to too much UV light, to which one exposes oneself unprotected in the sun, smoking, stress, and too little sleep also contribute to increased wrinkle formation in the eye area.

It is especially the laughter lines, also called crow's feet, that are noticeable in this zone. These often sympathetic wrinkles are caused by muscle movements when laughing. With a wrinkle treatment for the eyes, we can give our gaze more freshness and cheerfulness. Here too, we will select the best method or combination for you in a personal consultation.

Mouth wrinkle treatment Berlin

Wrinkles around the mouth are particularly noticeable, as they often affect the chin and cheeks. Therefore, they occupy a large part of the face and can give us a suffering expression.

With the increasing loss of skin elasticity, it no longer reliably resists gravity. It begins to sag, while the facial expressions of the mouth promote wrinkle formation. Nasolabial folds extend from the nostrils down to the corners of the mouth. Mouth corner wrinkles, as the name suggests, are located at the outer ends of the mouth and pull our cheeks into wrinkles. But also around the lips, fine lines can appear, which are often the result of years of smoking.

For every person, it is an individual mixture of dynamic and static wrinkles in the mouth area. Therefore, it must also be individually adapted to what extent Botox or a filler represents the more sensible mouth wrinkle treatment.

Chin wrinkle treatment Berlin

The chin is also a particularly mobile part of the face. The primary cause of chin wrinkles is a permanent tension of the mentalis muscle, the chin muscle. Soft lines gradually appear as visible wrinkles over time.

Among the chin wrinkles, the marionette lines are probably the most impressive. The furrows that run vertically downwards from the corners of the mouth resemble the movable mouth of a marionette. Since they often make us look grumpy or sad, many people are bothered by them.

The mental crease is naturally given; it marks the point where the lower lip transitions into the chin. With increasing age, it can deepen. Wrinkles and dimples can also appear on the chin plateau, which is colloquially known as a strawberry or cobblestone chin. Botox is particularly suitable for this, as the dimples are caused by the movement of the chin.

Types of wrinkle treatment

In addition to surgical procedures, we at Dottore Caletti offer particularly minimally invasive methods for wrinkle treatment. No anesthesia or hospital stay is necessary for this. Below you can read everything important about Botox, fillers, and liquid lifting. If you are interested, we will decide together with you which methods are suitable for you.

Botox

When we hear Botox, we often think of stars and starlets who suddenly appear in the spotlight with mask-like faces. Immobile and unnatural facial features that have arisen from excessive or unprofessional application. These horror examples cast a false light on wrinkle treatment with Botox.

For a wrinkle treatment with Botox, an exact dosage of the agent is of great importance. To achieve a beautiful and natural result, the treatment may only be performed by recognized aesthetic surgeons. But what is Botox actually and how does it work?

Botox is the abbreviation for Botulinum toxin. This is a concentrated nerve toxin that partially inhibits or paralyzes muscle contraction. In Germany, only a few preparations are approved for safe use on the face. The agent relaxes the muscles and ensures less movement. In this way, wrinkles can already be attenuated preventively.

Since the skin is not plumped up by fillers, but smoothed by reduced muscle movements, Botox is primarily suitable for dynamic wrinkles. This works most reliably for wrinkles that are not yet too deep and can be used especially for prevention. Depending on the case, a combination of Botox and filler may be the right choice. You can find this out calmly with us in a personal consultation.

Generally, the effect of Botox lasts for a limited period of 4 to 6 months, and wrinkles are smoothed. Due to its preventive effect, the effect can also be of longer duration. The formation of deeper furrows can be prevented by muscle inhibition.

Filler

In wrinkle injection, a liquid or gel is injected into the skin. This tightens it and restores its youthful volume. At Dottore Caletti, we use hyaluronic acid, poly-L-lactic acid, or even autologous fat as fillers.

Hyaluronic acid is particularly suitable for static wrinkles, fine lines, and deeper wrinkles. Depending on the injection technique and dosage, areas can be plumped up or deep furrows can be smoothed out. The filler typically lasts 10 to 12 months in the skin, with newer products achieving effectiveness of up to 14 months. Since hyaluronic acid contributes to better moisture binding in the skin, the smoothing effect can also remain visibly sustainable.

Hyaluronic acid as well as poly-L-lactic acid are natural substances that are also produced by the body itself. The fillers are broken down by the body over time, and the application must be repeated.

Autologous fat can also be used for wrinkle treatment. This method is more expensive than other fillers due to its scope. For this treatment, fat must first be liposuctioned from suitable areas of the body, which is then prepared for use as a filler. It is particularly suitable for volume building in larger areas.

We are happy to help you decide on the right filler. We take into account individual factors such as your skin type, age, and the type of wrinkles to be treated. We also consider your personal wishes and support you with our professional knowledge.

Liquid Lifting

Liquid Lifting

Liquid lifting refers to a method of wrinkle treatment that uses a combination of different injection techniques and fillers. This allows the face to be sculpted and rejuvenated without surgery.

This not only reduces wrinkles but also restores volume to the skin. The result is a holistically tightened face without complex surgery.

In addition to hyaluronic acid and poly-L-lactic acid, Radiesse can also be used here. Radiesse is also a natural filler based on calcium hydroxylapatite. This is particularly suitable for deeper wrinkles.
