Plastic surgery is great if you have tons of money to throw away, don't mind everyone knowing you have had some work done, and are willing to risk your natural beauty at the hands of a surgeon who could very well make a human mistake and leave you scarred for life.
If you are like most people, you fall off the surgery bandwagon somewhere in there.
Maybe you just aren't rich enough to have a facelift or perhaps you aren't up to the risk a surgical facelift requires.
Whatever it is that puts you out of the running for the surgeon's next facelift, there are some non-surgical options that you should be aware of.
These are procedures that every woman should know about, whether she thinks it is time to have a little "work" done or believes she will never have plastic surgery.
With a non-surgical option that delivers the effects of surgery without the knife, it's amazing how many women will slip into the doctor's chair for that "work.
" Thermage Thermage is the first non-surgical beauty treatment of which every woman should be aware.
There are certain areas of the face that tend to thin out and appear looser as you age.
These are areas that you run your hand over in the mirror and wish you could just pull it up some.
The most common areas include: • Jawline • Cheecks • Around the Eyes It just so happens that Thermage is used to treat just these areas! The skin on these areas of the face start to thin out over time as the natural production of collagen starts to slow down.
The collagen already in the skin starts to wear away and you notice your skin loosening up, taking away that fresh youthfulness that you used to see reflected back in the mirror.
A Thermage treatment requires you to sit still while a medical professional uses a handheld device to shoot radio waves into the second layer of your facial skin.
These waves cause the skin cells to contract and tighten up while stimulating the production of collagen.
As the collagen returns to the skin it holds the skin tight in this firmer position.
The result is a younger, fresher appearance to the skin which can be seen immediately after the very first procedure.
You do have to return for repeat Thermage procedures, but over time you can maintain that fresh, youthful appearance to the skin.
Ultratheray Ultherapy is the second non-surgical beauty treatment of which all women should be aware.
This treatment has become known as the non-invasive facelift because it does essentially what a surgical facelift is designed to do: lift the skin so it doesn't sag like an older woman's skin tends to do.
Both of these treatments are great alternatives to traditional surgical methods of plastic surgery because they are less risky and a lot more affordable.
You can take one day off work or perhaps just a few hours and have these procedures without anyone knowing that you had plastic surgery when you return.
There is no extensive down time, very little pain or discomfort, and everyone will be wondering what you did to look so great rather than laughing because they know you had a facelift.
