Patients want to look as good as they feel. As the skin undergoes changes from intrinsic and extrinsic aging, its appearance and condition do not always match how the patient feels; however, there are a variety of options for noninvasive procedures that can restore a youthful and refreshed appearance to the skin. Rhytides, volume loss, actinic damage, and photodamage can be improved with a combination of neurotoxins, soft tissue fillers, photodynamic therapy, tightening devices, and resurfacing devices, depending on the patient’s specific cosmetic needs.
