Aging skin is primarily caused by genetics. As we get older, our skin produces less collagen and elastin and begins to lose elasticity - it’s unavoidable! Environmental factors like pollution and lifestyle factors like smoking can speed up the aging process as well.

But while you can’t stop aging, there are certain steps that you can take to protect your skin and slow the appearance of wrinkles, dark spots and more. These measures include staying hydrated, wearing sunscreen to prevent sun damage, and avoiding smoking and alcohol intake.

If you’ve noticed signs of aging skin and are looking for solutions, book an in-person or online skin consult with a licensed healthcare provider. They can help you identify the cause of your symptoms and come up with a personalized treatment plan, which may include medication if appropriate.

Fine lines, dark spots and other signs of aging skin can be treated with a range of prescription and over-the-counter skincare products. Certain lifestyle adjustments - such as staying hydrated, getting plenty of sleep, and avoiding smoking and alcohol - can help improve your skin's appearance as well.

There are also a number of cosmetic procedures that are used to treat signs of aging, including laser treatments, chemical peels, microneedling, dermal fillers, and Botox (botulinum toxin) injections.

To determine which treatment is best for you, talk with a licensed medical provider. They can offer personalized medical advice catered to your needs and prescribe medication if appropriate.

However, you can pay for your online visit using your Health Savings Account (HSA) card or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) card if you have one.

If you do have insurance and are prescribed medication during your appointment, your prescription may be covered depending on your plan.

You will also receive a prescription savings card from Sesame if medication is prescribed. The prescription savings card is often cheaper than a co-pay on your prescription, so we recommend comparing your insurance co-pay to the savings card price before filling your prescription.
