Slide2AGING OF SKIN
Slide3AGING
Continuous ,dynamic, chronological , irreversible process
Slide4AGING
Progressive, intrinsic, time dependent deterioration of an organism’s structural or functional integrity
Inevitable & culminate with the eventual death of the organism
Slide5THEORIES OF AGING
PROGRAMMATIC THEORY
Telomere shortening
Cellular senescence
Slide6THEORIES OF AGING
STOCHASTIC THEORY
Oxidative stress
DNA damage
Amino-acid
Racemization
Slide7TYPES OF SKIN AGING
INTRINSIC
EXTRINSIC
Slide8TYPES OF SKIN AGING
INTRINSIC
universal, presumably inevitable change attributable to the passage of time alone
occurs in all skin whether or not exposed
to external ageing factors
Slide9INTRINSIC AGING
FACTORS AFFECTING INTRINSIC AGEING
Reactive oxygen species
Sex hormone level alterations
Genetic-telomere shortening
Cytokines-TGF beta 1,increases
Slide10INTRINSIC AGING

Exaggerated expression lines
Decreased pliability
Slow recovery from trauma
Benign neoplasm
Thinning,
laxity
Dryness,
pigmentary
changes
Intrinsic aging

Slide13EXTRINSIC AGING
Superimposition on intrinsic aging changes, accelerated skin ageing due to external influences
Primarily chronic sun exposure
Wind, heat & smoking are other factors.

Most premature aging -by sun exposure.
Repetitive facial expressions
Gravity
Smoking
Alcoholism
Poor nutrition
Stress
Slide15Slide16PHOTOAGING

Slide21PHOTOAGING
There are four types of
photoaging
according to
Glogau
classification
Type 1 to type 4
Slide22Slide23WRINKLES
Earliest & cosmetically most unwanted problem of aging.
Results from the changes in the elastic fibers in the upper most papillary dermis
Slide24WRINKLES
In the aged, elastic
fibres
fibers are replaced by abundant quantities of
microfibrils
Compromise dermal elasticity
Along with alterations in collagen fibers, predispose the skin to tear type injuries
Slide25CLASSIFICATION OF WRINKLES
GLYPHIC WRINKLES
LINEAR FURROWS
CRINKLES
Slide26WRINKLES
STATIC WRINKLES-follow normal facial expressions
DYNAMIC WRINKLES-follow aging and physical tension
Slide27REJUVENATION
To restore to youthful vigor or appearance, make young again
Slide28REJUVENATION

used
botox,for
strabismus
Jean and Alastair
Carruthers
introduced
botox
to dermatology
Slide92BOTULINUM TOXIN/BOTOX
The goal of treatment should only be softening of facial lines, not paralysis
It is truly a ‘facelift in a jar’

The only limiting factor is the cost of treatment
Slide93BOTOX
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Blocks acetyl
choline
release at the neuromuscular junction
Inhibits transmission of nerve impulses across the synapse
Temporary flaccid paralysis of muscle
Slide94BOTOX
This takes 1-3 days which is the time required for the onset of action of
botox
It takes 3-4 months for the axon to send out new nerve terminals, which relates directly to the duration of action of the toxin.

Slide125DERMATOLOGIC APPROACH TO FACIAL REJUVENATION
Photoaging
is a multisystem degenerative process that involves the skin and the skin support systems, including the bone, cartilage, and subcutaneous compartments
These structures provide the architectural support for the dermis, epidermis, and stratum
corneum
.
Slide126BONY ARCHITECTURE
Without a strong framework, the skin hangs formless over the face
Bone loss - dulling of the facial features
Vitamin D therapy - 50,000 IU for 2 weeks followed by 800 IU daily
Slide127BONY ARCHITECTURE
Calcium carbonate-1gm daily accompanied by a
bisphosphonate
administered once weekly
Women at risk for facial bone loss- hip or spine
Dexascan
yearly to chart the success of therapy
At least 30 minutes of weight-bearing exercise should be undertaken 3 times weekly
Slide128CARTILAGE ARCHITECTURE
Defines the shape of the face
With advancing age, change in shape
During pregnancy changes due to
relaxin
Use of
hyaluronic
acid fillers to preserve the youthful nose
Slide129SUBCUTANEOUS COMPARTMENT
Contributes much to the aged appearance of the face
Unclear why subcutaneous fat
redeposited
intrabdominally
The best way to replace-
autologous
fat transfer
Slide130SUBCUTANEOUS COMPARTMENT
Autologous
fat transfer
Does not change the essence of the individual's face
No downtime and scarring of a face-lift
Many women lose their characteristic appearance after a face-lift because the skin has been stretched and repositioned over the fat-devoid bones, creating an angular appearance
Slide131Cosmetic Procedures Usually Done
Lentigines
,
keratoses
, sebaceous
hyperplasias
& other benign lesions
shave excision,
curettement
,
electrosurgery
&
cryotherapy
Vascular lesions

& lesions of sun damage
dermabrasion
Cosmetic Procedures Usually Done
Ptotic
eyebrows
brow lifting
Droopy or saggy appearance of eyelids
blepharoplasty
Scalp alopecia
hair transplantation, scalp reduction procedures
Unwanted fat deposits
liposuction
Slide133Cosmetic Procedures Usually Done
Tattooing of eyelid margins augments the physical appearance of lashes
Injection of dermal fillers along the vermilion border can plump out & better define lip margins
Local
hirsutism
seen on upper lip of elderly can be treated by shaving, waxing or electrolysis
Slide134Measurement Of Aging Process
Silicone impressions-analyze wrinkle depth
Optical
profilometry
-measures changes in skin topography
Tristimulus
colorimeters-evaluates the
colour
hue
Spectrophotometers-quantifies the skin
colour
Slide135Conclusion
Ageing of skin is an inevitable & irreversible process, the hastening of which can be prevented to some extent by proper skin care
The primary goal of treatment modalities is improvement, rather than perfection of the individual’s appearance
