Anti-aging treatments are measures or techniques that help prevent or reduce aging signs like fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. These treatments are primarily performed on the body areas where aging signs are most visible, such as the face, neck, arms, décolletage, and other regions.
Anti-aging treatments include at-home topical solutions and clinical procedures ranging from non-invasive to minimally invasive to invasive treatments. Your skin doctor will select a treatment based on your preferences and skin condition.

Who Is the Ideal Candidate For Anti-Aging Treatments?
With the availability of so many options, anti-aging treatments in Dubai are suited for just about anyone looking to bring a youthful change to their appearance. However, certain candidacy criteria must be met before you undergo any treatment. For instance:
- You should be in overall good health. Certain medical conditions contraindicate some anti-aging treatments or compromise their results. So, discuss your medical status with your dermatologist during the initial consultation.
- You should have realistic expectations of the treatment. For example, most anti-aging treatments take some time to deliver final results. Moreover, you will unlikely get a significant improvement in severe aging signs unless you undergo a more invasive procedure like a facelift or brow lift.
Book a consultation at Dubai Cosmetic Surgery Clinic to discuss your candidacy criteria in detail.
What Is The Aim Of Anti-Aging Treatments?
Anti-aging skincare treatments primarily aim to delay or reduce the appearance of aging signs like fine lines, wrinkles, dryness, and loss of skin elasticity. Most of these treatments work by addressing underlying causes of skin aging, such as loss of collagen and elastin, the two proteins that keep the skin supple, firm, and elastic. The resultant skin rejuvenation effect helps reduce sagginess and improves the appearance of aging signs.
What Are Different Anti-Aging Treatments?
Dubai Cosmetic Surgery Clinic offers various anti-aging treatments to help you regain your youthful appearance. Below are the details of those treatments.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels involve the application of an acidic solution to the skin, typically in a clinical setting. This solution dissolves the outer skin layer, replacing it with a smoother, less wrinkled surface. Your doctor may choose from different peeling solutions, depending on your preferences or the severity of aging signs. The most common peeling solutions used in chemical peels include glycolic acid, trichloroacetic acid (TCA), lactic acid, or salicylic acid.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is an ideal treatment for mild aging signs, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and rough skin texture. It uses a diamond-tip handpiece or spray of fine crystals to exfoliate the skin. As a result, a newer, brighter, and smoother-textured skin surface is revealed. This treatment causes little to no pain since it only targets the epidermis (superficial skin layer).
Laser Treatments
Laser treatments for aged skin typically involve resurfacing, the process that removes the top layer of the skin (some are non-ablative and work by heating the underlying skin tissue). Not only does this help a fresher, smoother skin surface to emerge, but it also stimulates collagen production, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. These treatments may also reduce skin laxity to some degree. Among various types of lasers used to treat aging signs, Fractional CO2 and Erbium YAG are the most common.
Botox
Botox injections for anti-aging are typically administered in the facial areas affected by aging. These injections work by temporarily paralyzing muscles responsible for wrinkles and fine lines. This helps reduce aging signs on the face.
It is pertinent to note that Botox treatment is not permanent, as its results usually last three to six months. Therefore, a re-treatment will be required every few months if you want to maintain the results.
Skin Boosters
Skin boosters are hyaluronic acid injections that, hydrate the skin and improve plumpness. These injections use ultra-thin needles to supply hyaluronic acid to the skin tissues. The purpose is to reduce skin dryness, improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and add radiance to the treated region. This treatment is typically administered in the face, neck, décolletage, and hands.
Redermalization
Redermalization is an injectable treatment that helps prevent skin aging and aids in the rejuvenation of the face and body. This treatment supports the skin’s natural functions and processes that resist aging effects. It involves injecting a solution of hyaluronic acid and succinic acid into the middle skin layer (dermis). This solution improves skin hydration and stimulates collagen and elastin production, thereby preventing the formation of wrinkles.
Microneedling
Microneedling involves making tiny punctures in the skin using a specific device with multiple tiny needles on its tip or head. These punctures create micro-injuries that invoke natural healing process that increases collagen and elastin production. This helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots and may improve skin tone and texture.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 is a contemporary RF fractional microneedling treatment that uses controlled inflammation and the delivery of radiofrequency to fight skin aging on the face, jowls, and neck. The microneedles used in this minimally invasive treatment pierce the skin at varying depths, where they release radiofrequency energy to cause tissue coagulation. The purpose of tissue coagulation is to remodel and rejuvenate the skin. This results in enhanced collagen production, leading to a reduced appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other aging signs.
Intense pulsed light
Intense pulsed light (IPL) Photofacial is a treatment for multiple skin concerns, including the effects of aging. This treatment releases short but intense broad-spectrum light flashes onto the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. It can be highly effective in reducing wrinkles in the facial area. IPL is also used for treating sun damage, age spots, and redness.
Facelift
A facelift is a surgical treatment to tighten the skin on the face and neck. It typically involves a curved incision that starts at the temples and goes around the earlobe before ending in the lower scalp. This incision allows the surgeon to remove the loose or saggy skin and underlying fat. Once the excess tissue is removed, the incisions are closed with stitches. This procedure not only reduces sagginess but also smoothens deep wrinkles and creases. It may also involve repositioning underlying tissues and muscles.
Benefits of Anti-Aging Treatments
Anti-aging treatments offer several benefits, some of which are as follows:
- Many anti-aging treatments improve the skin’s physiological functions, improving hydration and collagen production.
- These treatments improve cell turnover, giving you a better tone and texture.
- Besides a few invasive options like a facelift, most anti-aging treatments are non-invasive or minimally invasive.

Anti Aging FAQs
What Options Do You Have for Anti-Aging Treatment?
We offer a number of non-surgical anti-aging treatments to help our valued patients restore their youthful appearance without going under the knife.
Which Anti-Aging Treatment is the best?
All of the above-stated anti-aging treatments are really effective, but their efficacy varies from person to person, depending on an individual’s skin type and severity of the problem.
It is your physician’s job to determine which treatment will be right for you, and he can do so only after physically examining your condition. Sometimes a combination of two or more treatments is also used to achieve the desired results more effectively and quickly.
Having that said, Laser Skin Resurfacing has been rated by the patients as well as the doctors as the best anti-aging treatment in Dubai.
Is Laser Skin Resurfacing Safe?
Laser Skin Resurfacing is one of the safest anti-aging treatments available in this age of technology. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has also approved lasers for treating aging signs and symptoms, like facial wrinkles, sagging skin, uneven skin tone and texture, age spots etc. When performed by an experienced dermatologist or a classified laser expert, the treatment rarely causes any side effects or complications. However, getting the procedure done in a salon by some inexperienced beautician or untrained nurse practitioner can cause some serious side effects, such as skin burns and hyper-pigmentation.
