The face is one of the most visible parts of the body and is prone to aging. Over time, the skin loses its elasticity, which can cause wrinkles and sagging. Other factors that contribute to facial aging include sun exposure, genetics, smoking, and lifestyle choices. Sun exposure accelerates the aging process by damaging the collagen and elastin in the skin, which are responsible for keeping it firm and supple. Genetics also play a role in how quickly a person ages as some people are more prone to wrinkles than others due to their genetic makeup. Smoking has been linked to premature aging due to its effects on collagen production and circulation. Lastly, lifestyle choices such as diet and exercise can also affect how quickly a person's skin ages as a poor diet can lead to a lack of essential vitamins and minerals needed for healthy skin.Rejuvenation Treatments
At Reservados, we specialize in providing a variety of rejuvenation treatments to help reduce signs of aging and restore a youthful appearance. Our treatments are tailored to each individual patient's needs and can be used to target specific areas or provide an overall rejuvenation. We offer both injectables and threads, as well as more invasive treatments such as mini-lifting facial and lipofilling or lipoestructural facial treatments.Injectables
Injectables are a popular option for those who want to reduce wrinkles and fine lines without going through surgery. We offer a variety of injectables such as Botox, fillers, and Dysport. These injectables help to relax muscles, fill in wrinkles, and plump up the skin for a more youthful appearance.Threads
Threads are another popular option for those looking to reduce signs of aging without surgery. Threads are made of biodegradable material that is inserted into the skin to lift and tighten it, giving it a more youthful appearance. The threads dissolve over time, leaving no visible trace behind, making them an ideal option for those who don't want any visible scarring from their treatment.Mini-Lifting Facial
The mini-lifting facial is a minimally invasive procedure that involves making a small incision near the ear before repositioning the muscles, skin, and fat to reduce signs of aging. It is often combined with lipofilling or lipoestructural facial treatments for optimal results. The procedure usually takes about two hours and may cause some discomfort due to stretching and inflammation.Lipofilling or Lipoestructural Facial
Lipofilling or lipoestructural facial treatments involve injecting fat into specific areas of the face in order to add volume and reduce wrinkles or sagging skin. This treatment helps to restore lost volume in the face while also providing natural looking results that will last for years. It is often used in combination with mini-lifting facial treatments for optimal results.

Procedure for Mini-Lifting Facial
The Mini-Lifting Facial procedure is a minimally invasive treatment that involves making a small incision near the ear. This incision is used to reposition the muscles, fat, and skin of the face in order to reduce signs of aging.Step 1: Anesthesia
Before the procedure begins, a local or general anesthetic will be administered to ensure patient comfort during the process.Step 2: Making the Incision
A small incision will be made near the ear and then extended along the hairline in order to provide access to the underlying muscles and tissues.Step 3: Repositioning Muscles and Tissues
Once access has been provided, our surgeons will carefully reposition the muscles and tissues of the face in order to reduce wrinkles, sagging skin, and other signs of aging.Step 4: Closing the Incision
After the desired results have been achieved, our surgeons will close the incision with sutures in order to reduce scarring.Step 5: Recovery Period
The recovery period for a Mini-Lifting Facial procedure typically lasts two hours and may cause some discomfort due to stretching and inflammation. In order to reduce any pain or swelling, we recommend using cold compresses or taking over-the-counter medications as directed by your doctor.
