The Liquid Facelift: Fountain of Youth

At the Beverly Hills Medical Center Kuwait, we offer a number of solutions to the appearance of aging on the face. Treatments include innovative lasers, injections, radiowaves, and skin care.

With the advent of Tom Cruise’s new movie, Oblivion, we’d like to take a close look at just how much younger Cruise is looking at fifty. He has actually appeared to have reversed time. Tom Cruise is dedicated to his profession on the big screen. It’s very likely he is as focused on self preservation by taking the necessary steps needed to maintain good health, which includes proper diet, exercise and rest. However, being that Tom is someone who has a vast selection of cosmetic treatments available to him, we are certain he has had a lot of good work done to keep his face smooth and line free.

Botox is a muscle relaxant that helps prevent and diminish brow lines (among other uses.) A good injector can preserve some motion in the forehead while still inhibiting small motions that create the objectionable creases. Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane may have also been used on smile lines (or nasio-labial folds). Cruise is also a very lean guy with little to no body fat. This makes the plumpness in his face seem a bit unusual for a man his age. Facial fat begins to deplete at about forty.

The loss of facial fat is an observable fact that can be traced from birth. At birth, we possess a full, round face due to the large quantity of fat that is uniformly distributed. By mid twenties, facial fat starts to diminish; though not enough to display a substantial difference. More fat is shed by the early to mid thirties, giving the face an oval physique. By fifty, the skin appears to descend, and the volume that was once there is slowly replaced by a hollow and slightly aged appearance. Facial plumpers such as Sculptra can gradually replace lost collagen, giving the fuller appearance and help correct wrinkles and folds.

Sculptra can be part of a liquid facelift in which it can be combined with Botox, collagen fat grafting, and Juvederm. Darkened circles and bags below the eyes can be reduced as well. Eyelids can be lifted, making the eyes open up. Jowls and the corners of the mouth can also be lifted. A natural shape can replace deflated cheeks or temple areas.

Many people want to look as good as they feel; Tom included. The important thing here is that whatever treatment you choose to undergo, it is important to treat your face and body with the same care you do before a procedure as you do after. Reducing alcohol intake and avoiding smoking will help keep blood circulation regular, which you need for proper healing. It’s also important to remember that the face reacts to weight gain or weight loss. Sustaining a good, healthy weight by exercising and eating right will have positive results for the body and face.

As with all procedures, it is imperative to be in the care of a board certified professional. At the Beverly Hills Medical Center Kuwait we offer the best in care.
