Frequently asked questions
Deformation Type of Aging
Key Signs:
• The face “sags” downward, pronounced nasolabial folds and jowls appear
• The jawline and neck start to merge
• Swelling and lymphatic stagnation—face appears puffy in the morning and improves by evening
• Abnormally pronounced platysma (neck muscle)
Who Is Prone?
More common in people with pronounced subcutaneous fat and a tendency to swelling.
Examples:
Brigitte Bardot, Catherine Deneuve
What to Do?
✅ Botox in the platysma (Nefertiti lift) – start at 25 for prevention
✅ Lipolytics – 2 courses per year (3-6 procedures each)
🚫 Avoid! Hyaluronic acid fillers in the cheekbones
Tired Type of Aging
Key Signs:
• Deepening of the cheek groove—first sign of aging
• The face “deflates,” tissues become thinner, contours lose definition
• In the morning, the face looks good, but by evening it appears tired and sunken
• Prone to swelling, may develop malar bags
What to Do?
✅ Be cautious with fillers—swelling tendency can cause delayed puffiness
✅ Choose techniques focused on strengthening tissues rather than filling them
Muscular Type of Aging
Key Signs:
• Skin remains firm, but deep wrinkles appear actively
• Many expression wrinkles due to high muscle activity
• First wrinkles appear in the glabella (between eyebrows) and crow’s feet
• Jawline remains defined, but subcutaneous fat volume decreases over time
• Corners of eyes and lips start to droop
Who Is Prone?
More common in men, but also in women (e.g., face fitness trainers).
Examples:
Julia Roberts, Daniel Craig
What to Do?
✅ Botox – start early to prevent expression wrinkles
✅ Calcium hydroxyapatite – strengthens facial muscles and prevents sagging
✅ Injections in cheek muscles (McGregor patch and cheek groove)
✅ Myostimulation & microcurrents – for facial muscle training
✅ At-home facial massages
🚫 Be careful with fillers! Use them sparingly if jowls have already appeared
Fine-Wrinkled Type of Aging
Key Signs:
• Hyperelastic skin, prone to creases and folds
• “Echo of a smile” – the skin gathers into fine wrinkles
• Almost no visible pores, but very dry skin
• Over time, skin resembles a baked apple
• Unlike other types, the face shrinks rather than sags
Who Is Prone?
📍 Only seen in women, especially those with very dry skin.
More common among Europeans, less common among Russians.
Examples:
Andie MacDowell, Michelle Pfeiffer, Sharon Stone
What to Do?
✅ Intense skincare! Nourishing creams, oils, serums
✅ Biorevitalization, Botox
✅ Polylactic acid – mimics a trauma response to create controlled fibrosis
✅ Vitamin C (daytime) and Vitamin A (retinol at night)
🚫 Avoid! Acid peels, hardware treatments
🚫 Do not wash your face with soap!
