Facial Rejuvenation in Mallorca
Facial ageing occurs naturally over time. However, external agents such as prolonged exposure to the sun, a stressful lifestyle, a poor diet, as well as smoking or alcohol consumption can accelerate this process of facial skin ageing. When this happens, signs of ageing such as expression lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity and luminosity or the appearance of spots and textures begin to appear prematurely.
In general, these signs are due to the loss of elastin, collagen and hyaluronic acid, materials present in the skin that give it that youthful appearance. Fortunately, today there are treatments to restore the lost vitality to the face with techniques such as facial rejuvenation.

What does facial rejuvenation consist of?
Facial rejuvenation is a type of medical aesthetic treatment that involves the application of filler materials at strategic points on the face to mitigate the effects of the signs of aging. With facial rejuvenation techniques we are able to correct: frown lines, crow’s feet, drooping eyebrows and eyes that look tired and aged, upper lip lines, asymmetries present on the face, prominent chin folds and horizontal age lines on the neck.
On the one hand, the medical-aesthetic techniques used in facial rejuvenation treatment can relax certain facial muscles, so that the deep muscles continue to perform their function, while facial wrinkles, such as crow’s feet or frown lines, are removed from the skin. But, on the other hand, these techniques can also improve hydration, provide luminosity and regenerate tissues damaged by overexposure to the sun, by improving their regenerative capacity.
What techniques are applied in facial rejuvenation?
It all depends on the assessment carried out by the specialist and the retouching or retouches that the patient wishes. For the application of any of these techniques it is necessary to carry out a preliminary study to determine the patient’s facial characteristics and facial expressions.
Botulinum toxin or Botox, a name that has become widespread in aesthetic treatments, is a natural protein that acts as a muscle relaxant. This makes the skin and muscles more relaxed, toned and smooth. For this reason, botulinum toxin type A (approved by the Spanish Ministry of Health and Social Welfare for medical-aesthetic use) reduces expression lines or dynamic wrinkles that appear when gesturing and moving the muscles of the face.
What does the technique consist of?
Botox is applied to specific areas of the face by means of microinjections. This application is precise and localised, making it a safe and effective technique. Without the need to apply anaesthetic cream, the specialist draws the points where the product is to be infiltrated and then, using very fine needles, proceeds to apply it. It is not a painful process, only a slight puncture is felt in the area to be treated, which is temporary and disappears.
Mesotherapy with fillers is an ideal treatment for the prevention of ageing and to improve the appearance of wrinkles and facial flaccidity. The aim is to revitalise facial skin by means of a tightening and firming effect, providing greater luminosity, improving skin hydration and even having a depigmenting effect on facial blemishes caused by overexposure to the sun. Thus, depending on the material applied, multiple signs of ageing can be attacked.
What does the technique consist of?
The facial mesotherapy technique consists of the application by means of very superficial microinjections of the filler material chosen to combat the aforementioned signs of ageing. The materials used include hyaluronic acid, a cocktail of vitamins, amino acids, antioxidants, trace elements, etc. These biocompatible substances help to reactivate the production of collagen and elastin in the skin, as well as combat the loss of firmness and volume caused by wrinkles and correct sun damage.
What are the advantages of facial rejuvenation?

- The results last between four and six months, but clinical studies show that the duration usually increases as the number of sessions increases.
