Neurotoxins and Fillers
Uncover a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance with the help of neurotoxins and fillers, two highly effective non-surgical cosmetic treatments.
What are Neurotoxins and Fillers?
Neurotoxins and fillers are injectable treatments used in cosmetic medicine to reduce signs of aging and enhance facial features. Neurotoxins, such as Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau, work by temporarily paralyzing the underlying muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. Fillers, on the other hand, add volume to areas that have lost fullness over time or enhance certain features, such as lips or cheeks.
Understanding Neurotoxins:
Neurotoxins are primarily used to treat dynamic wrinkles, which are lines created by repetitive facial movements like smiling, frowning, or squinting. They work by blocking signals from nerves to muscles, preventing the muscle from contracting and thereby smoothing out the wrinkles. Common treatment areas include forehead lines, crow’s feet, and lines between the brows (frown lines).
Understanding Fillers:
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to restore lost volume, smooth lines, soften creases, or enhance facial contours. Fillers can be used in a variety of areas including lips, cheeks, under the eyes, and jawline. They can also be used to smooth out static wrinkles, which are lines that are present even when your face is at rest.
Benefits of Neurotoxins and Fillers:
-
Non-Surgical: Both treatments are minimally invasive with little to no downtime.
-
Quick and Convenient: Procedures typically take 15-60 minutes.
-
Immediate or Fast Results: Fillers show immediate results, while neurotoxins show results within 3-7 days.
-
Long Lasting: Depending on the product, results can last anywhere from 3 months to 2 years.
