Treatment for Chest Wrinkles - Cleavage Rejuvenation

Chest wrinkles are one of the least anticipated signs of aging. Few women expect them as they age, even if they expect to get lines on their face and see sagging skin around their chins. They are often shocked by the appearance of these wrinkles and want to get rid of them as quickly as possible. After years of having a taut, firm chest area, they are frustrated by the appearance of wrinkles and age spots that so easily betray their age.

Cause of Chest Wrinkles

As a woman ages, the collagen and elastin in her skin begin to breakdown and the body produces less of these elements, which are responsible for keeping skin looking firm, tight, and healthy. The lack of collagen and elastin results in the formation of wrinkles and causes the skin to sag. Just like the face, the chest can begin to lose its elasticity, and women will often experience some wrinkling and the development of age spots.

Treatments for Chest Wrinkles

There are several preventative measures and treatment options for women who want to avoid or reduce the appearance of wrinkles and age spots on the chest.

Sunscreen

The daily use of sunscreen on the chest can stave off the formation of age spots and wrinkles.

Anti-aging Lotions

One of the most common and most popular treatments for chest wrinkles is the use of an anti-aging cream. Some creams can actually help to restore some collagen to the skin, plumping and smoothing its appearance. In general, however, these topical applications are not as effective as most people would like, and women who are looking for a more permanent or drastic result will turn to different measures.

Injectables

Cleavage rejuvenation is actually not that different from receiving BOTOX® or dermal filler injections on the face. The doctor will use a needle to inject a filler into the skin of the chest, filling those sunken areas that are causing wrinkles. In general, this can then allow the skin to become firmer, tauter, and even look more full. These fillers simulate the youthful look that most women want to achieve, without the need for surgery or more painful measures. These injections usually last about six months before they need to be done again, in order to retain the youthful results. The filler used in these injections is designed not to interact badly with the body or with the skin, making it great for women who want a more youthful chest area.

Chemical Peels

A chemical peel helps to slough off dead and dying skin cells from the chest area, which can settle into wrinkles, causing them to look deeper than they are. A chemical peel can remove the wrinkled layers of skin and actually help to reveal smoother, younger looking layers below.

Laser Therapy

Laser therapy can be used on very damaged skin, in order to make it look healthier and younger. When used on the chest area, it can actually improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, even improving the pigmentation of the skin and encouraging it to grow new collagen.
