Botox® Cosmetic
Botox® Cosmetic, the popular fix for celebrities and everyday people alike, is now accepted as a safe, effective treatment for wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows (frown lines), and in the “crow’s feet” areas of the face.
Botox Cosmetic works by weakening the muscles that surround wrinkles so that the muscles relax and the overlying skin flattens. Unlike injectable fillers such as collagen and fat transfers that fill in wrinkles or depressions, botox injections like this Botox in Hattiesburg physically weakens the muscles so that the facial skin is smoothed, relaxed, and natural looking.
Experts always prepare your formulation of Botox Cosmetic fresh on the day of injection at Med Spa services in Dallas, TX. They perform botox injections by carefully selecting the precise area of injection for the best results possible. Because the paralysis of the facial muscles is temporary, re-injection is usually necessary within 3 to 10 months.
The specific risks and the suitability of Botox Cosmetic can be determined only at the time of your consultation with experts like Chetco Medical and Aesthetics. All procedures have some degree of risk, but major complications are rare.

JuvedermTM
Juvederm is a semi-permanent injectable filler for treating facial wrinkles and plumping up lips. Because Juvederm is water-soluble, it fills wrinkles and depressions in the skin with a natural substance while slowly being reabsorbed by the body. It also works as a facelift. Consult experts at Facelift in Washington D.C. to know more about the treatment.
Juvederm is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid – a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. Juvederm is injected under the skin to provide a smooth, natural look and feel. In addition, Juvederm injectable gel is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is proven to be safe and effective for persons of color. Pricing Sculptra Injections is available after consultation and is based on the estimated amount of time and difficulty.
Restylane®
Restylane is fast becoming a popular choice as an injectable filler for treating facial wrinkles, as well as for plumping up lips. Because it is water-soluble, it fills wrinkles and depressions in the skin with a natural substance while slowly being reabsorbed by the body.
Restylane is a crystal-clear, non-animal, biodegradable gel based on a natural substance present in the human body called hyaluronic acid. The gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The result is instantaneous and produces a long-lasting, natural enhancement that is gentle and safe to your skin.
Restylane is very effective for diminishing wrinkles around the corners of the mouth, the lips, the nasolabial folds (commonly referred to as “parentheses”), and the frown lines (between the eyebrows). Results will last from 6 to 12 months.
Restylane is also an excellent temporary filler for lip augmentation. Experience shows that Restylane is effective for up to six months when injected in the lips. Because the effects of Restylane are not permanent, you have the option to discontinue use if your tastes or fashion trends change. You may also consider getting neck lift services in Lexington KY if you have excess skin under the chin and neck area that has lost elasticity.
Radiesse®
Radiesse is a pure, synthetic compound with a record of safety that extends more than 25 years. It is comprised of microspheres of calcium hydroxylapatite, combined with an aqueous gel. The key element of Radiesse is identical to the chemical structure of calcium naturally present in the human body. Throughout its life, Radiesse remains soft and flexible and also exceptionally compatible with the body.
Prior to its introduction, the Radiesse formula was extensively tested in the United States and Europe. No serious reactions or rejections have been reported to date.
When injected, the cream-like texture of Radiesse feels soft and natural. Unlike temporary treatments that must be repeated, Radiesse may provide years of rejuvenation. However, the resorption rate is variable and we have had some patients in whom the material was gone by 6 months. It is gradually replaced by the body’s own tissue, and slowly dissolves away in some cases up to seven years later.
Radiesse is FDA-approved for soft tissue marking in any anatomical location, vocal cord injection and oral and maxillofacial augmentation. FDA approval for facial implant is pending. Internationally, Radiesse has received approval for facial implant and treatment of stress urinary incontinence.
Perlane®
Perlane restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). Perlane generally lasts for about 6 months. It has been found to be a safe dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin.
Perlane is injected into the skin with an ultrafine needle. It plumps the skin to smooth away wrinkles and folds. Perlane’s water-loving nature attracts and binds water molecules to help maintain volume.
Perlane is composed of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that already exists in the body. The hyaluronic acid in Perlane is a crystal clear gel that is chemically cross-linked (the long chemical strands are tied together) to delay breakdown by skin enzymes. Perlane is non-animal-based and free from animal protein. This quality prevents disease transmission. Allergy pre-testing is not necessary.
After getting treatments like these, it’s important to take care of your skin for lasting results. You may incorporate moisturizers like Oxygenating Hydro-Matrix into your skincare routine.
