Summer is here, and that means more than just soaking up the rays. It means being more aware of the toll that the sun can take on the delicate skin of your face. Aside from being the culprit for sunspots, UV radiation is also responsible for the breakdown of collagen in the skin, which results in a lack of fullness in the face and more deeply etched lines and wrinkles around the nose, lips, and cheeks. In fact, the sun is so damaging to unprotected skin that, according to a study in Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, it alone is responsible for 80 percent of premature skin aging.
If you’re looking for a way to combat sun damage and turn back the clock on aging – without surgery – consider improving the look and feel of your skin with a non-surgical dermal filler. Dr. Benjamin C. Stong is proud to offer the patients of his Atlanta practice Belotero Dermal Filler to help them maintain a natural, more youthful appearance. Belotero is a hyaluronic acid-based facial filler that works with the natural contours of your face, using the same moisturizing compounds already found in your skin, to subtly reduce the appearance of fine lines, sagging skin, and wrinkle.
Dr. Stong and his certified, experienced, professional staff are trained and ready to provide you with the highest level of care. If you’re interested in combatting summer skin damage with Belotero, or any of our other non-surgical facial fillers, contact the specialists at Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery.
