Wrinkle Treatment Options

Do you have redness or pigmentation on your skin, as well as fine lines or wrinkles? Our dermatologists at Kind Dermatology and Medical Spa provide a safe and effective solution to improve its texture and rejuvenate its appearance. ThreeForMe wrinkle treatments in Santa Barbara, CA, can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles by combining intense pulse light with a fractional laser to revitalize and replenish your skin in two steps. Botox is an alternative treatment that uses injections to restore a more youthful appearance. When making these cosmetic corrections, you may require more than one appointment. However, annual cosmetic treatments can help prevent early signs of skin aging. For more information, or to find out if you're a candidate, call our office today.

Wrinkle Treatment Options

At Kind Dermatology and Spa, our dermatologists recommend the following for wrinkle treatments in Santa Barbara, CA:

  • ThreeForMe Laser: This option is known to address multiple skin concerns. It penetrates the skin with intense pulsed light (IPL) to reduce skin discoloration, freckles, brown spots, rosacea, and other forms of sun damage. Following the IPL, the dermatologist will use a fractional Erbium laser that emits a thin light beam to stimulate collagen production and new cell turnover, resulting in firmer, smoother skin.
  • Botox Injections: Botox blocks specific chemical signals from nerves that cause muscles to contract. It uses botulinum toxin to temporarily paralyze or relax the facial muscles and prevent contracting. When this process occurs, the muscles become less stiff, which reduces the appearance of wrinkles.

Regardless of which treatment option is best for you, both have a reputation for minimal downtime. However, recovery from ThreeForMe's fractional laser may take longer.

Healing time for laser treatments varies by individual, but visible results can be seen one month after the completion of three treatments. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Alexis Dougherty, Dr. Louise Stuart, or Dr. Rikk Lynn to determine your eligibility for wrinkle treatments in Santa Barbara, CA.
