Facial Aging
Anti Aging Clinic – Windsor, ON
Do you see a more tired or older version of yourself when you look in the mirror?
Facial aging is a natural process that occurs due to a combination of factors, including genetics, lifestyle and environmental factors. Common causes of facial aging include sun exposure, smoking, repeated facial expressions, and the natural loss of fat and collagen in the skin and bony structures of the face.
There are several ways to prevent or reduce premature skin aging. Some of these include a healthy diet, avoiding excessive sugar and alcohol consumption, avoiding smoking, getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, managing stress, and protecting your skin from the sun. There is also accumulating evidence that antioxidants can reduce some of the damaging effects of environmental factors. In addition to these lifestyle changes, there are also various treatments available to address the signs of facial aging. These include topical creams and serums, injectable fillers and neurotoxins, laser and light-based treatments, and surgical procedures such as facelifts.
It’s important to consult with a dermatologist or other qualified healthcare professional to determine the best course of treatment for your individual needs. They can help you develop a personalized skincare routine and recommend appropriate treatments to address your specific concerns.

Aging Skin Treatment
Our facial structure changes with time due to reduction in facial bone foundation and in shrinkage of fat pads at different parts of our faces.
Restoring these structures can help to rejuvenate your face – resulting in a less tired, more youthful appearance.
With time and sun exposure, our facial skin becomes thinner and more mottled with brown and red marks. These are the result of UV damage and intrinsic aging. There is less collagen and elastic tissue in the skin leading to thinning and change in texture.
Procedure Recommendations for Skin Rejuventation
Facial rejuvenation requires attention to improvement of skin tone (by reducing brown spots and red marks), skin texture (fine lines and muscle hyperactivity creases) and re-establishment of facial foundations and contours.
- Skin tone – treatment of brown spots can be achieved by surface treatments including fading creams, cryotherapy, light facial peels and lasers/IPL.
- Skin texture – fine lines can be treated by facial creams containing retinol and vitamin C, superficial injections of hyaluronic acid (Skin Boosters TM), chemical peels, RF Microneedling, Lasers and Hydrafacials. Muscle hyperactivity lines (forehead, frown, crow’s feet lines) can best be treated with Botox TM
- Volume loss of bone and fat compartments – can be effectively addressed by use of fillers. Hyaluronic acid fillers have different characteristics in viscosity, cohesivity and elasticity. Products with high cohesivity are needed for vertical lift or projection while those of low cohesivity, viscosity and medium elasticity are needed for areas such as lips to allow for normal appearance with movement and minimal risk of lumpiness.
During your consultation, Dr. Tan will listen to your concerns, examine your skin and help develop a personalized rejuvenation blueprint to help you achieve your desired goals.
