BOTOX AND DERMAL FILLERS
BOTOX
A Botox® Cosmetic treatment is simple, non-surgical procedure that smoothes the deep, persistent lines between your brows that develop over time. One ten-minute treatment – a few tiny injections – relaxes the muscles that cause those lines to form and keeps them relaxed up to four months. Botox® Cosmetics has been widely tested. Now it’s approved by the FDA.
The results are dramatic and apparent within days. In clinical trails, nearly 90% of men and women surveyed rated the improvement in their brow lines as moderate to better. For many, Botox® Cosmetic virtually “erases“ these lines.
Unlike surgery, Botox® Cosmetic is fast, simple and minimally invasive, with no downtime or recovery. Most people return directly to work or normal activity following treatment. Within days, they report looking more natural and relaxed. With Botox Cosmetic, they’ll know you’ve done something they just won’t know what.
JUVEDERM
Juvederm is what is referred to as an “injectable filler” used by dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons to soften deep folds and reduce facial wrinkles. Juvederm was approved by the FDA in June of 2006 for use in patients over the age of 18. One of the key ingredients in Juvederm is hyaluronic acid which helps to maintain the volume of the skin through hydration.
The results from Juvederm typically last from 3-6 months depending on the individual. Injections then need to be repeated periodically to maintain results over a longer period of time.
