Are there any alternatives to the CoolTouch III treatment?
The CoolTouch III is the treatment of choice for individuals who want to improve skin texture but don’t want any “downtime”. The treatment bypasses the epidermis and penetrates the fibroblasts in the dermal layer to stimulate collagen production. The CoolTouch III treatment is very sophisticated and at this time, there is nothing else like it. Other wrinkle treatments do exist. These include chemical peels and laser skin resurfacing, both of which involve varying degrees of downtime. These techniques are referred to as ablative techniques, which can be more invasive, involving the epidermal and dermal layers of the skin. The results of these treatments, however, can be quite dramatic. Botox and Injectable Fillers are also options for individuals with isolated wrinkles or creases on the face. The Thermage Facelift is an option for individuals who are experiencing loose or sagging skin as opposed to fine lines and wrinkles. There is no downtime associated with this treatment.
