Wrinkle treatments: There are several options for improving wrinkles, and choosing the right one depends on specific things. Wrinkles caused by hyperactive facial muscles can be improved with botox. Dermal fillers such as Restylane (dermal fillers) or juvederm can be injected into wrinkles. Facelift surgery is sometimes the best option, and laser peels are another option.Facelift.

There are a number of ways to address facial wrinkles, including topical tretinoin, chemical peels, ipl, lasers, Botox or dermal filler injections, among others. A physician with proper training and experience in treating facial skin problems can make the best recommendation after evaluating your skin.

Wrinkles: Nothing dissolves wrinkles. However, resurfacing procedures like lasers and chemical peels may help. And injectables like fillers and neurotoxins are another option.

Why am I getting brownish patches on my face?

Hormonal changes: This is "melasma" of pregnancy caused by excess melanin pigment production by the skin cells under the influence of estrogen and Progesterone of pregnancy. This is similar to what happens when some women take birth control pills. There is also a genetic predisposition, and exposure to sun can make this worse. The condition often regresses after pregnancy is over. Skin lightening agents may be used.

What could little white spots under eyelids and face be?
2 doctor answers • 5 doctors weighed in

Dr. Margaret Mannanswered

Likely Milia: Without seeing you, it's difficult to say what your little white spots are under the eyelids and face. Commonly, small 1-2mm white bumps are usually milia, which are small cysts under the skin. Other while bumps include xanthelasma and syringomas. I would recommend that you see a dermatologist who will be able to evaluate these areas and treat them.

Many products: Cleansers to remove existing oils am retinoids to reduce oil gland secretions will work together. Use non comedogenic moisturizers or none at all.

Is there something I can put on my face to make it less dry?
2 doctor answers • 3 doctors weighed in

Dr. Michael Carsonanswered

Yes: There are lotions/creams designed for use on the face available at pharmacies that are less likely to cause acne (the term is "noncomedogenic"). It is best to wet the skin with warm water before applying the cream so the moisture can be "trapped" by the cream. However, if the "dryness" doesn't improve, gets worse, or develops redness/pain, then see your physician to be sure it isn't another issue.
