Feeling tired or wanting to feel rejuvenated?

At Twenty One Dental, we understand how important it is to look and feel your best. Beauty comes from within…but there is nothing wrong with making the best of our looks !

Young skin is constantly moisturised from within by hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring sugar. Hyaluronic acid absorbs moisture and keeps your skin well hydrated for a youthful look. As we age, our skin loses hyaluronic acid and fine lines start to appear on the face. Some lines become wrinkles due to outside factors like sun exposure, diet and years of facial muscle movement. Fat loss can create sagging and turn lines into folds, too. Moisture levels diminish as we age.

Busy lifestyles, gruelling work schedules (not to mention our age !) can have a negative impact on our skin. With age, our skin loses its elasticity, because it produces fewer collagen and elastin fibres. This results in sagging cheeks, jowls and drooping eyelids.

In addition, wrinkles are formed due to the muscles of the face contracting repeatedly (Hyperfunctional Muscles).
