Find affordable ways to tackles facial wrinkles in Malaysia - a great place for a holiday that offers surgical and non-surgical options to age-related lines, sagging and wrinkles.

Gravity and age take their toll on physical appearance sooner or later. As the face is exposed the most, the tell-tale signs of ageing appear first there. This can start even when you are in your thirties and really depends a great deal on the climate, weather conditions, your work environment and even heredity. A person who works outdoors is more likely to get wrinkles on the face as is a person who is always stressed.

There are numerous facial rejuvenation procedures that are not as drastic as a surgical facelift, but do show good results and are effective in making you look younger. These are minimally invasive or even non-invasive and take a very short time to show results. You can consult an aesthetician or a doctor or skin specialist to check which ones will work for your skin and then take the plunge.

What are the various facial wrinkle removal procedures and how much time do they take?

Facial wrinkles are of different types and range from fine lines, heavy lines, furrows and skin folds. The kind of wrinkles you have and the results you hope to achieve will dictate the kind of procedure that will work for you. Among the many treatments available are:

• Collagen – the lower face and lips benefit with collagen injections. Collagen plumps out the skin and removes wrinkles and scars. The results are instant and there is no downtime with this either.
• Botox – this is actually a toxin that works by paralyzing muscles when injected in minute quantities and results in smoother looking skin. It is effective for wrinkles on the forehead, frown lines and upper eye creases and there is no downtime associated with this. It can take under half an hour.
• Hyaluronic acid – this is a different type of filler and works on crow’s feet, wrinkles and nose to mouth lines, smoothening them out by filling them. Its effects last longer than that of collagen injections.
• Fat recycling – this is a safe method that lasts for years. Fat is harvested from the body, purified and then injected into deep wrinkles to fill them. It is specifically useful for hollow cheeks and nose to mouth lines.
• Microdermabrasion – exfoliates the skin at a deeper level and offers a 50 percent reduction in wrinkles. Similar to micordermabrasion is the use of dermaroller and dermabrasion.
• Laser resurfacing – this is a strong treatment that is best done under anesthesia. It goes deeper into the skin and, while it gives good results, you may take weeks to recover.
• Light laser – this uses varied lasers that don’t go deep into the skin, but stimulate collagen production and reduce wrinkles by 50 percent. There may be redness for a few hours and results can take time as the skin heals.
• Chemical peels – different strengths of varied acids may be used for up to two minutes on the skin, to effectively ‘burn’ the skin. The acid is then washed away. Sometimes more than one session may be required for results to show.
• Radiofrequency waves – these use heat to stimulate collagen production in the skin, resulting in a tighter skin.

Most procedures are done on an outpatient basis and can take between 30 minutes to an hour. There may be no downtime or it may take a few weeks to recover, depending on the procedure.

There's also, of course, the surgical options for wrinkle removal, including facelifts and surgery that targets specific areas, such as eyes. These treatments will require more consideration and more downtime afterwards as they are surgical procedures.

What is the cost of facial wrinkle removal in Malaysia?

The cost really depends on the kind of treatment you require and how many sittings required. Some treatment prices also depend on the number of units of botox or fillers used. Whatever the cost, you can be certain that rates in Australia are much higher than that in Malaysia. Plus you also get to have a holiday in Malaysia.
