Botox and Dermal Fillers: A Dynamic Duo

As we age, our faces naturally lose subcutaneous fat. The facial muscles are then working closer to the skin surface, so smile lines and crow's feet become more apparent. The facial skin also stretches a bit, adding to this loss of facial volume. Other factors that affect the facial skin include sun exposure, heredity and lifestyle.

Whether you have a few wrinkles you’d like to smooth out, or you want to put the brakes on new wrinkles appearing, Botox and dermal fillers may be the optimal solution. Botox and dermal fillers are popular aesthetic treatments helping to restore the beautiful, youthful vibrancy of your face, smile and overall facial features.

Botox, or botulinum toxin, helps stop the formation of wrinkles around the mouth and eyes by interrupting the nerve transmitters that force the muscles to contract. There is no loss of feeling in your facial muscles, but the restricted movement will help ease the crinkling of the skin and the resulting wrinkles. By contrast, dermal fillers add volume to facial areas where wrinkles have already formed. The filler is gently injected underneath the skin to plump up the area and make wrinkles significantly less noticeable.

You may be a good candidate for Botox and dermal fillers if you:

  • Are physically healthy
  • Don't smoke
  • Have a positive outlook and realistic goals in mind for the improvement of your appearance
  • Are committed to maintaining good skin health

For some patients, surgery such as a facelift, brow lift or eye lift may be the best approach. Minimally invasive rejuvenation treatments, such as Botox and soft tissue fillers, cannot achieve the same results, but may help delay the time when consideration of a facelift becomes appropriate. It is important to remember that Botox and dermal fillers are temporary treatments for facial aging and that ongoing treatments will be needed for long-term results.

Build Muscle with EmSculpt

You can now build muscle in a revolutionary, non-invasive procedure called EmSculpt ! In as little as four sessions you can get the body that you desire. This procedure can be used to sculpt areas of your body, such as the buttocks, abdominal and arm muscles to help you have the muscle build that you've always wanted! EmSculpt is non-invasive so without any surgery or opening wounds, it can help you become toned and sculpted.

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a skin treatment that uses a specialized blade — similar to a surgical scalpel called a dermatome — to remove dead skin and hairs. People may also refer to it as microplaning or blading. When you have it done by a certified professional aesthetician, experts generally consider it safe. However, a person should not try to do dermaplaning on themselves or others at home. The basic concept of dermaplaning is the same as shaving, but in place of a razor, it uses a scalpel-type blade to remove skin cells, hair, and other debris that may be present on the surface of the skin. The continuous exposure of the top layer of skin to UV rays, environmental toxins, and irritants means that it may begin to appear dull. Dermaplaning removes the top layer of skin to reveal newer skin cells that may make a person’s skin appear smoother and glowing. An esthetician, plastic surgeon, or dermatologist can perform skin resurfacing procedures such as dermaplaning. A person should choose a...
