Wrinkles are formed as we age as a result of the gradual elongation of our collagen bands that hold our skin tight to our muscles and fat underneath it.
It is the effect of gravity and wear and tear factor over the years of use and exposure to the sun and various temperatures, humidity and pollutants, in addition to our hereditary genetics.
Wrinkles can be reversed by one of the following principles/treatments:
1- Relaxing the muscles underneath the folds or wrinkles (Botox)
2- Filling the skin crease present i.e. flattening the fold or wrinkle (Fillers)
3- Tightening the collagen bands to their original short and plump shape
(T3 laser treatment) our most requested laser treatment at VeinCure.
Botox and fillers are more suited for localized problem areas in the forehead, around the eyes and the Naso-Labial fold (the fold going from the nose to the corners of the mouth). Fillers are also valuable in filling the lips and some shallow areas in the cheeks and around the eyes and the jaw line.

The T3 Treatment on the other hand works in a more homogeneous way to tighten the entire face or neck or any other areas of the body where mild to moderate skin sagging, large pores and fine wrinkles are the problem.
The T3 has replaced the old Thermage and/or Fraxel treatments because of its effectiveness, simplicity and safety.
You can read more about it in the Non-surgical facelift page.
The T3 treatment can be applied to any area of the body, including the face, neck, chest , abdomen, thighs, and other areas.
T3 treatment should not be mistaken with Photo rejuvenation therapy which is geared more to address the more superficial problems in the skin, such as acne, brown spots, redness, blotchy skin, uneven skin tone… etc. For this purpose, we use a specialized new laser that removes red and brown pigment from the face, dries up the oily content of the skin glands, removes the superficial fine hair and restores the skin original youthful appearance.
We often combine these treatments with mild dermabrasion or chemical peel to enhance the overall efficacy. The results are simply dazzling, albeit different from one patient to another.
