Wrinkle Treatment Without Surgery – Gentle Path to Smooth, Radiant Skin

::heading{tag="h2" text="Gentle anti-aging treatments for a rejuvenated, natural complexion"} ::

An insight into the non-surgical procedures offered by Dr. Christoph Jethon that can gently reduce visible wrinkles. Together with you, Dr. Christoph Jethon will discuss which method is best suited to your individual case. The goal is to give your face a fresher, naturally appearing expression.

Depending on the extent of the planned measure, the procedure at PraxisClinic Jadore can take approximately 15 – 60 minutes. With wrinkle injections, patients are generally socially presentable again shortly after the treatment; with procedures that involve tissue removal or targeted stimulation of skin regeneration, visible traces typically subside within approximately 1 – 3 days based on experience.

Rejuvenating the skin with injections instead of a scalpel – that is the motto for wrinkle injections. Injecting wrinkles with targeted injections is a particularly effective method whose effect is also quickly visible: by increasing volume, the diminished skin tension is compensated and wrinkle formation is reduced. For the successful treatment of wrinkles on the forehead, eyes, nose and mouth with injections, Dr. Christoph Jethon, in consultation with you, uses the following well-established substances:

• Hyaluronic acid (Teosyal®)
• Autologous fat
• Botox®

::heading{tag="h3" id="hyaluronic-acid" text="Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid"} ::

Hyaluronic acid is a natural, endogenous substance and therefore an important component of connective tissue. It has a high water-binding capacity, which makes it a major contributor to the appearance of the skin. However, with increasing age the skin’s own hyaluronic acid content decreases – with the typical visible consequences, especially on the face: the skin loses firmness, initially small lines appear that over time enlarge into visible wrinkles. By injecting hyaluronic acid, these wrinkles can be compensated while the face retains a natural appearance.

For wrinkle injections with hyaluronic acid, Dr. Christoph Jethon uses Teosyal® products, a modern, synthetically produced preparation that is particularly long-lasting and is broken down slowly by the body. The non-animal hyaluronic acid is injected by him in a minimally invasive manner. The advantage of wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid injections is an immediately visible result.

• Duration of treatment: 15 – 30 min.
• Aftercare: cooling
• Socially presentable: immediately
• Sport: immediately
• Duration of effect: 6 – 12 months

::heading{tag="h2" id="autologous-fat" text="Wrinkle treatment with autologous fat injections"} ::

For wrinkle treatment, the body’s own fat can also readily be used as a dermal filler. It offers the great advantage that no allergies can occur. Autologous fat is particularly suitable for augmenting deep nasolabial folds, but also for enhancing the lips. In preparation for fat injections, Dr. Christoph Jethon first harvests fat from another area of the body and specially prepares it for injection. With an autologous fat treatment, injections are repeated 2 – 3 times to achieve a perfect result, since a certain portion of the fat is reabsorbed. With properly applied processing and injection technique, approximately 50 - 70% of the injected autologous fat remains permanently at the treated sites.

• Duration of the procedure: 30 – 60 minutes, outpatient
• Aftercare: cooling
• Socially presentable: after 0 – 3 days
• Sport: after 7 days
• Duration of effect: permanent

::heading{tag="h3" id="botox" text="Wrinkle treatment with Botox®"} ::

Botox is a natural toxin produced by a specific bacterial species. The active ingredient it contains inhibits the transmission of signals from the nerve to the muscle and thus prevents its activity. Targeted Botox injections in the face relax the muscles responsible for wrinkle formation at the treated site.

Dr. Christoph Jethon injects Botox primarily into the facial muscles of the forehead and around the eyes. Repeated and often involuntary efforts of the musculature form concentration lines there, also called frown lines, as well as the so-called crow’s feet around the eye area. Forehead and eye wrinkles can give a face a strained or serious expression that does not always reflect the inner mood.

From experience, Dr. Christoph Jethon proceeds cautiously when treating wrinkles with Botox because its effect builds up only within a few days. The full success of Botox injections therefore becomes apparent only after 1 to 2 weeks. The wrinkles are smoothed and the facial expression looks overall more relaxed. The effect of Botox injections lasts in most cases between 4 to 6 months, during which time even deeply engraved wrinkles can regress. To ensure complete, lasting wrinkle reduction, Dr. Christoph Jethon can, in consultation with you, repeat the treatment at regular intervals.

::heading{tag="h2" id="needling" text="Needling for the skin’s self-renewal"} ::

Human skin is exposed daily to a wide variety of influences, visible and invisible, that all leave more or less distinct traces. In addition to the natural aging process of the skin, stress or the sun’s UV radiation also damage the visible skin appearance and the skin substance in general and cause wrinkle formation.

But stretch marks, e.g. after weight fluctuations or pregnancy, scars caused by acne, operations, burns or injuries, and other irregularities or pigmentation disorders also leave visible marks on the skin that can be disturbing or disfiguring.

For the sustainable treatment of wrinkles or skin injuries, Dr. Christoph Jethon uses the proven medical needling procedure. In needling, many micro‑punctures in the skin stimulate its self-regeneration through endogenous collagen synthesis, i.e. of the connective tissue. Medical needling increases blood circulation in the skin, thereby improving its supply with important nutrients. As a result, the skin becomes thicker and firmer again, while pore size is reduced – overall the skin texture improves significantly and the skin also appears younger. The needling treatment at PraxisClinic Jadore is therefore the ideal procedure to regenerate the skin of the face, neck, décolleté and hands, especially for:

• sun-damaged skin
• general wrinkle formation, especially of the upper lip
• acne scars etc.
• stretch marks
• hyperpigmentation

Dr. Christoph Jethon relies on medical needling because of its many advantages: only moderate swelling occurs at the treated sites, the only visible sign of the treatment is slight redness that disappears after 2 – 3 days. The risk of infection is extremely low because only single‑use needles are used; the treatment is very gentle and is performed by Dr. Jethon using a topical anesthetic cream, the duration is about 20 minutes.

• Duration of the procedure: 15 – 30 minutes, outpatient
• Aftercare: cooling
• Socially presentable: after 1 – 3 days
• Sport: immediately
• Duration of effect: 6 – 15 months

::heading{tag="h2" id="dermabrasion" text="Dermabrasion"} ::

When the view in the mirror is impaired by acne scars, pigment spots and other skin changes, it can be challenging to conceal these flaws with makeup. In such cases, dermabrasion is an effective treatment method to permanently remove such disturbances in the skin texture.

With the dermabrasion procedure, Dr. Christoph Jethon gently removes not only scars and pigment disorders but also fine wrinkles, hyperkeratosis and sun spots as well as seborrheic keratoses and age spots. He can also sand off superficial tattoos from the upper skin layer.

In dermabrasion, all these blemishes are removed by a skin‑preserving sanding of the upper skin layer; Dr. Jethon painlessly abrades dead and discolored skin cells. At the same time, this process activates lymph flow and microcirculation, which stimulates the formation of new cells and collagen in the skin. The skin’s sebum production can also normalize as a result of a dermabrasion treatment, and your face regains an even, beautiful and youthful-looking complexion.

• Duration of the procedure: 30 – 60 minutes, outpatient
• Aftercare: cooling, ointment dressings
• Socially presentable: after 7 – 10 days
• Sport: possible immediately
• Duration of effect: depending on the area of application 12 months to permanent

::heading{tag="h2" id="lip-enlargement" text="Lip augmentation"} ::

The mouth is the most attention-grabbing detail of a face; even a tiny movement of the lips reveals what a person feels and thinks. Lips fascinate and enchant and are always in the spotlight. They convey much: sensuality, emotions and self-confidence. Full lips are often associated with youthfulness and vitality. A mouth with less voluminous lips can, on the other hand, be perceived as reserved, which can affect expressiveness.

With a targeted lip augmentation at PraxisClinic Jadore, a mouth regains youthfulness and attractiveness: Dr. Christoph Jethon will give your lips the seductive, attractive expression you desire, always in harmony with your face. He recommends a lip modeling with Teosyal®, a hyaluronic acid-based preparation. Teosyal® is the gold standard for lip augmentation because it is very well tolerated and its effect lasts up to 12 months.

Small correction with a big effect: Dr. Christoph Jethon needs only a small amount of gel, which he injects into the skin with a fine needle to already emphasize the contours of the lip border and enhance expressiveness. He always places great value on a natural-looking result that nevertheless achieves its effect. With a lip augmentation at PraxisClinic Jadore, your mouth will also gain noticeably more softness and suppleness. Your lips will look immediately more attractive and will already form the perfect frame for your new radiant smile without lipstick, which will surely receive the attention it deserves!

::heading{tag="h2" id="plasmalifting" text="Plasma lifting"} ::

Touch-free and yet effective skin tightening – the modern plasma lifting procedure makes it possible. Dr. Christoph Jethon offers this non-invasive cosmetic treatment method at PraxisClinic Jadore especially for tightening the upper and lower eyelids. A special plasma generator used for this purpose produces a spark by the electrical voltage difference between the device and the skin, which in fractions of a second removes skin tissue and at the same time tightens the deeper skin layers without damaging them.

To do this, Dr. Jethon uses the ACCOR Cosmetic Corrector, which he guides safely a few millimeters above the skin area to be treated in order to remove excess tissue while simultaneously stimulating the skin’s natural cellular processes. Plasma lifting thus prevents the breakdown of connective tissue fibers in the skin and the loss of its elasticity. Through the regenerative effect, the resilience of the skin tissue is also positively influenced overall.

You can admire the result of your plasma lifting immediately – and for quite a long time, because the effect lasts up to 10 years. This procedure can also be repeated later without any problem.

• Duration of the procedure: 15 – 60 minutes, outpatient
• Aftercare: nourishing creams
• Socially presentable: after 2 – 5 days
• Sport: possible immediately
• Duration of effect: 3 – 10 years

All of these methods frequently used by Dr. Christoph Jethon for facial rejuvenation are not surgical procedures in themselves, so such a treatment is gentle and can be performed on an outpatient basis. However, you can also contribute to their success through preparatory measures: approximately 2 weeks before your facial rejuvenation appointment at PraxisClinic Jadore you should, if possible, in particular pause the intake of medications that increase bleeding tendency; these include aspirin or any other products containing acetylsalicylic acid. This precaution does of course not apply to medically prescribed and health‑necessary medications; please inform Dr. Jethon beforehand if you take such medications regularly.
