Skin rejuvenation applications are the general name given to medical aesthetic procedures that aim to reduce problems such as wrinkles, pigmentation, loss of elasticity, and dull skin appearance caused by aging, sun damage, environmental factors, genetic traits, and lifestyle. The goal of skin rejuvenation treatments is not only to improve the skin aesthetically but also to make it healthier from a biological perspective. In dermatology and medical aesthetics, skin aging is addressed in two different processes. The first is chronological aging, which is related to a person's genetic characteristics and age. However, the other aging process, extrinsic aging, occurs due to factors such as sun exposure, smoking, daily stress, insufficient sleep, unhealthy nutrition, and stress. As the skin ages, the body’s production of collagen and elastin significantly decreases. Hyaluronic acid levels in the skin decline, and the cellular renewal mechanism slows down. Skin rejuvenation applications activate these cellular renewal processes, providing both aesthetic and biological improvement. Medical Aesthetic Specialist Dr. Lida Çiteli, who serves her patients in Istanbul, explains the details of skin rejuvenation treatments for you.
What Is Skin Rejuvenation?
Skin rejuvenation treatments refer to all medical aesthetic procedures applied to reduce and prevent the signs of aging on the skin. As we age, the skin loses its elasticity. This loss of elasticity leads to the formation of fine lines and deep wrinkles. Skin rejuvenation procedures help reduce these signs, prevent new ones, and delay their appearance. With the advancement of medical technologies today, various skin rejuvenation procedures that meet different needs continue to emerge. Their ability to provide natural and balanced results and being non-surgical treatments have increased their popularity worldwide.
Why Is Skin Rejuvenation Done?
Skin rejuvenation treatments are applied to reduce fine lines and deep wrinkles caused by aging. They are also used to increase the reduced elastin production and restore the skin’s lost elasticity, as well as to eliminate blemishes and uneven skin tone. Additionally, these treatments aim to restore the skin’s moisture balance and provide a brighter, healthier appearance.
What Is Skin?
The skin can be defined as an organ that covers every part of our body and protects us from environmental factors. Also known as dermis or epidermis, the skin acts like a shield that protects our body from sunlight, viruses, and bacteria. When we are young, our skin has a strong ability to renew itself. It frequently sheds dead cells and regenerates. However, as we age, the skin begins to repair itself more slowly and with difficulty. Tissue loss, sagging, pigmentation, wrinkles, and a dull appearance occur. It is possible to combat these effects with skin rejuvenation treatments.
