Wrinkles on the face and body are caused by skin aging and skin aging is by the lack of certain hormones caused to a considerable extent.
If individual endocrine glands weaken, we see certain symptoms in the face. For example, small wrinkles above the upper lip point to a lack of androgens and female sex hormones. Hanging cheeks with deep wrinkles indicate an additional deficiency of growth hormone (HGH).
Wrinkles are therefore better treated with bioidentical hormones than with botox. Once the hormonal deficiencies and imbalances are balanced out, the skin rapidly gains firmness, freshness, and vitality.
