1) Dermaroller Treatment

It is a cosmetic device consisting of hundreds of titanium micro needles placed in sequence around a cylindrical apparatus. These needles are 0.5 or 2 millimeters long and 0.1 millimeters in diameter. Since the needles are made of titanium, they are stainless. The derma roller should be gently rolled on the nose with upwards, downwards, and diagonal movements. The purpose of treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Thus, there is a noticeable change in our skin and when you touch your skin; it becomes tighter after 5-7 months of use.

3) Carbon Dioxide Functional Laser

Fractional lasers deliver laser light to the skin in small diameter columns and create heat damage to the skin through tiny columns. The skin areas around these damaged areas remain intact. The heat-damaged area is quickly repaired with cells from the surrounding undamaged skin. Due to the long wavelength of the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser, it can go deep into the skin.

Since it peels off the upper layer when applied to the nasal surface, we can see thinner and tightened skin in each session. A carbon dioxide laser is suitable to be made in winter. Depending on the condition of the skin, 3-4 sessions can be done at an interval of 3 weeks.

2) Dermapen Treatment

Nowadays, Dermapen is one of the most effective skin rejuvenation treatments based on micro needling. Actually, it is one of the procedures dermatologists have used to increase collagen production since the 1950s. The aim of the Dermapen treatment is to increase the production of collagen, which provides the skin’s flexibility ability. With Dermapen treatment, controlled destruction of the skin is created. This controlled destruction stimulates the cells (fibroblasts) responsible for collagen production in our skin, helping to improve the overall quality of the skin. In fact, it tries to heal itself due to the damage caused by derma pen application, thus successful recovery ensures a rejuvenated skin appearance.

So you can see a tightening of your nasal skin in 2-3 months.

4) Vitamin A Treatment

Vitamin A is widely used in many fields and purposes in medicine. One of them is thinning the skin and acne treatment. Vitamin A provides the tightening and thinning of the skin by shrinking the oil pores on the surface of our skin. The use of vitamin A should be with the advice of your doctor. The process should proceed by deciding on the dose and how much your skin needs and followed up during certain periods. The completion of the treatment is 3-4 months.
