Botox cosmetic is a simple, nonsurgical treatment that can temporarily and safely smooth these lines. A few tiny injections and within days there's a noticeable improvement in your appearance.
Patients will begin to look more rested, more refreshed. Results can last up to 4 months, perhaps longer with subsequent treatments. Results may vary. Botox cosmetic is a purified protein produced by the clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the activity of the muscles that cause those lines to form over time.
Restylane and perlane are safe and natural cosmetic dermal fillers that instantly restore volume and fullness to the skin to correct facial wrinkles and folds with little to no down time in your schedule. Such folds are commonly known as nasolabial folds, creases descending from the corners of the nose toward the chin, and marionette lines, creases descending from the corners of the mouth to the chin.
Restylane is ideal for adding fullness, volume and definition to the lips, lip border, and corners of the mouth which begin to lose volume with age. Additionally, it is an excellent filler for dark grooves of the lower eyelid.
Restylane and perlane are cosmetic dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that already exists in the human body. The hyaluronic acid in restylane and perlane is a crystal-clear gel called nasha, or non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid. nasha is completely biocompatible with human hyaluronic acid.
Restylane and perlane maintain their natural shape using the body's own moisture. The hyaluronic acid in restylane and perlane is hydrophilic or "water loving." As hyaluronic acid gradually degrades, each molecule binds to more water and over time, the same volume can be maintained with less hyaluronic acid. This ability of hyaluronic acid to bind water is what helps provide lasting results.
The lines that appear between your brows (glabellar lines), along your forehead and around your eyes (crows feet) actually result from muscle movement and the passage of time. Underneath your skin, your facial muscles contract, causing a pleating of the overlying skin which results in unappealing frown lines, crows feet, and forehead lines. These lines often make us appear angry, worried and aged beyond our years.
After years of crinkling and wrinkling, these lines start to linger and can become more pronounced. For women, whose faces tend to be more animated than men's and whose skin is typically more delicate, these lines may appear exaggerated and become permanent.
Choosing which one will work best for you, depends on you and your needs. Only your plastic surgeon can advise you on the proper procedure, and meeting with your surgeon is the first step.
