Abstract

Our objective is to keep the discussion relevant to internists and primary care providers. The presentation, evaluation, and management of the most common manifestations of the aging face are included. For organization and analytical purposes, the aging face is divided into thirds. Each procedure described addresses one segment of the aging face. Rejuvenation of the brow and eyelids, correction of facial rhytids (wrinkles), and resurfacing of fine-line wrinkles are all covered in this article.
