Preventative Maintenance – Best Treatments & Procedures

It’s easy to think of cosmetic & aesthetic treatments as after-the-fact solutions to premature aging. But this kind of “Problem > Solution” arrangement isn’t always optimal. To keep certain cosmetic issues at bay, preventative maintenance works harder, faster, and better, providing a much-needed edge in the battle against aging. 

 

You may find yourself most concerned about fine lines and wrinkles on the face, or about the weight around your midsection that clings on year after year. For women, old breast implants may lose their shape and allure, while men develop male breasts that compromise both confidence and appearance. 

 

For each of these issues, Pinnacle Plastic Surgery in Beaufort, SC, has a preventative maintenance option to slow, eliminate, or beat back unwanted signs of aging before they establish themselves. 

 

Injectables

For the strongest preventative cosmetic maintenance routine, injectables (such as dermal fillers and Botox) can work wonders. Both of these treatments are ideal for improving your appearance and preventing some of the most common aging concerns. 

 

Dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid to soften and add volume to the skin. As such, they’re very good at preventing wrinkles, flat lips, sunken cheeks, gaunt hands, and smoothing out your skin—particularly when used on your face or hands. 

 

Botox is a neurotoxin that works to reduce muscle activity in your face. Consequently, this prevents common issues like frown lines, crow’s feet, and so on. Better still, with frequent appointments, Botox can train the muscles most responsible for wrinkle development to “under-react,” preventing further issues down the road.

 

Breast Implant Exchange

Breast implants don’t last forever. While modern breast implants typically keep their shape for a decade or more, they’ll still need replacing one day. Having your implants replaced or exchanged is essential to maintaining shape, height, and overall safety. 

 

A breast implant exchange can also be used if your current implants no longer fit your lifestyle or preferences. Some patients want to downsize their breast implants to age more gracefully or worry-free. Others may want replacement implants at the same size but of better quality. At Pinnacle Plastic, we have the expertise to craft your implants to meet your new desires—whatever they may be.

 

Before your breast implants cause accelerated sagging, embarrassment, or safety issues, consider a breast implant exchange. 

 

Liposuction

When it comes to preventing health and aging issues, look no further than the extra weight you carry around on your body day after day, year after year. Excess weight is responsible for numerous chronic health and cosmetic issues. Having that extra weight removed can ease a legion of potential health and cosmetic concerns.

 

Liposuction is one of the most time-tested fat removal procedures on the market. It’s a highly effective procedure for preventing unwanted stores of fat that can become resistant to exercise and dieting. Ultimately, by reducing your weight, you’re sparing your heart, arteries, joints, skin, and dozens of other vital organs and body systems from additional strain. 

 

When totaled across the years to come, this reduction in overall body weight can prevent a multitude of health issues and premature signs of aging.

 

Male Chest Reduction

Male breasts are more common than you may think. The condition is especially prevalent among older men, but upwards of 50% of all men will develop some form of male breasts in their lifetimes. Thankfully, male chest reduction can target and prevent gynecomastia—a medical condition leading to enlarged male breasts. 

 

While gynecomastia results from hormonal imbalances (among other issues), treating the buildup of fatty tissues on the chest earlier on can keep the skin from expanding or sagging. Male chest reduction prevents further breast development while contributing to the chiseled, masculine chest you’re proud to show at the beach, pool, or in the bedroom.

 

Don’t React, Prevent

Don’t react to unwanted wrinkles, excess fat, outdated implants, or male breasts. Prevent these issues instead with cosmetic maintenance at Pinnacle Plastic Surgery in Beaufort, SC.
