BOTOX is the most popular non-surgical anti-ageing treatment worldwide for reducing lines and wrinkles and achieving a fresher, less tired look. It is a minimally invasive procedure whereby purified protein is injected using a tiny needle in to the areas to be treated. The aim of this treatment is to relax the muscles under the skin and hence allow the skin enough time to regenerate and repair itself. This treatment causes the wrinkles in the overlying skin to gradually soften and often disappear. The effect lasts for about three months. There is more to BOTOX though. BOTOX can also be injected into specific muscles of the forehead to raise the eyebrows and create a beautiful arch, and make the eyes appear larger. This is what we call a non-surgical facelift or the BOTOX facelift. What are Dermal Fillers? Dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid which is a naturally occurring substance in the body and their use on the face is considered very safe. The body produces natural hyaluronic acid which gives the face its visco-elastic properties and keeps the face rounded. With age the body loses its ability to produce hyaluronic acid resulting in the appearance of nose to lip lines, loss of volume in lips, cheeks become shallow and jowls start appearing. Dermal fillers are injected in areas which have lost their natural fullness. They are injected under the skin to soften deep lines from the mouth to nose area, lip lines or to enhance thin lips. Results last up to one year. Dermal fillers can also be used in combination with Botox treaments to manage static wrinkles which need a bit of extra help to give a smoother and younger looking skin.
