I know most of you probably think of a wrinkle cream when someone mentions anti aging treatments and regimens. This is true, they are probably the most popular alternative when women and men want to improve their appearance and look younger. However they aren’t the only option.

There are some good alternative therapies and treatments that don’t involve creams, lotions, needles or injections that you may want to try to look and feel younger.

Cosmetic Acupuncture

This process, similar to regular acupunture focusses on placing small medical grade needles where wrinkles and other signs of aging exist. The concept is that new blood flow helps stimulate a reduction in the wrinkle or line and unblocked Qi allows for some self healing.

The jury is out on it’s effectiveness, but there are women lining up for sessions across the country.

Facial Exercises

There’s no arguing that our muscles under the skin shape how our face looks on the surface. Because of this there have been anti wrinkle ingredients and injection based treatments formulated to relax those muscles so our appearance changes. However the longterm affects of these are not completely known.

Facial exercises work to strengthen and tone those muscles under our skin so that we are left with a more firmed looking skin surface.

Many women have seen amazing results and there are multiple books and small devices on the market that will help you get started if you’re interested in trying this anti aging alternative treatment regimen.
