Are you considering changing your appearance? Whether you have lines or wrinkles that you want to smooth or changes you want to make to your eyes, lips or nose, there are non-surgical cosmetic treatments that can achieve your desired results. Not all cosmetic alterations from plastic surgeons need to involve surgery. Here are some benefits to considering non-surgical cosmetic treatments.

Many plastic surgeons offer a wide variety of non-surgical cosmetic treatments at their clinics. Dermal fillers, Botox and skin treatments can all be used to reverse aging and change your appearance. Dermal fillers can add volume to the cheeks, lips, skin and even the nose to change the appearance of the face. Botox and skin treatments can help improve the texture and youthfulness of the face. Here are some benefits of choosing non-surgical treatments instead of plastic surgery.

  • Try it on. Considering a nose job or lip implants, but hesitant to make a permanent change? Non-surgical cosmetic treatments can give you a chance to “try on” a look without surgery. If you like the look, you can then decide to make a permanent change.
  • Less-expensive. Non-surgical options are less expensive than surgery and can fit into almost any budget.
  • No downtime. Most non-surgical cosmetic treatments can be done in an office visit and do not require downtime from work or a need for recovery. Some treatments can be done on a lunch break, with no one the wiser.

If you want to improve your appearance, there are many options that are non-surgical and still effective. Make an appointment for a consultation to learn more about non-surgical cosmetic options at your local plastic surgeon.

Eliminate Wrinkes With Botox

You may have wondered if Botox really works to help diminish fine lines and wrinkles.  Or, you may have wondered if you will look ‘fake’ or ‘false’ if you have Botox done.  This article will help describe how Botox works, and who benefits from this procedure.

Botox works by temporarily ‘paralyzing’ the muscles that cause wrinkles to appear.  Botox works well against all types of wrinkles, and can be used for moderate to severe wrinkles.  Botox is especially helpful in eliminating crow’s feet, worry lines, mouth lines, and furrows between eyebrows.

No anesthetic is needed.  Botox is a simple, small injection given to patients.  The whole procedure lasts about 10 minutes.  Results are seen within three days. 

Botox is temporary.  Results will last about three to four months.  If you decide not to have repeated Botox treatments, the lines and wrinkles that were there before will return.

The best results of Botox are seen when early intervention is started.  Botox is not for everyone, and before having or receiving a Botox treatment, make sure that you share with your physician any medications (including herbals and supplements) you are on, if you have ever had problems breathing, or if you have any other types of chronic disorders.  Together, you and your physician can make the best decision on your anti-aging regimen. 

To see if you are a candidate for Botox, consult your local facial plastic surgeon today.  Start the anti-aging process today with Botox to help reduce and diminish lines, wrinkles and the ‘11’ that may have appeared between your eyebrows!
