As people age, skin care becomes more complicated. Age spots, wrinkles, and other skin irregularities appear. Now, according to a May 24, 2013 NBC Today article titled, Thinking about Botox? A Peel?

As people age, says the report, smoothing wrinkles becomes a high priority.

Botox has become the favorite go-to treatment for many and works by paralyzing small muscles in the forehead and other locations to smooth out the skin's surface. These treatments can last up to six months, and if started while the patient is young enough, may keep wrinkles from ever forming.
Dermal fillers are another skin care treatment that provides a more youthful look, says Dr. Ourian. These fillers are injected directly under the skin to plump it up, and some help stimulate the growth of new collagen.
Dr. Ourian has been a pioneer in laser technology and non-invasive aesthetic procedures including Restylane, Juv
