Facial Fillers & Injectables: Botox & Dysport
We all get wrinkles sooner or later. Smile lines, frown lines, laugh lines, marionette lines, crow’s feet…a lifetime of facial expressions taking their toll. The combination of repetitive actions, exposure to sun, the loss of elasticity, and the thinning of collagen all work against our youthful appearance.
It starts with fine lines around our eyes and mouth, then furrows on our brow. Soon enough, the lines deepen and gravity pulls on our skin. Our faces begin to look tired, angry, or sad even when we are in a fantastic mood. We look older than we feel.
There are many solutions to “turn back the clock”
The Aesthetic Center of Lubbock is pleased to offer you a variety of minimally-invasive, injectable facial fillers designed to reduce creases, lines, and folds with little to no downtime. We offer a variety of facial injectables based on your unique needs including Botox & Dysport, as well as Juvederm, & Restylane.
These injectable facial fillers reduce facial wrinkles and lines by increasing tissue volume. They provide a more youthful appearance, giving your skin more fullness. You will notice fewer creases and furrows. Injectables are safe, quick, affordable and show immediate results.
For moderate to severe frown lines
Years of squinting, concentrating, or frowning can cause your skin to furrow and crease. As your skin becomes less elastic, those moderate to severe frown lines remain—even when your muscles are not contracting. Botox & Dysport minimize and prevent wrinkles of the forehead, crow’s feet, and glabella (area between the eyebrows).
How do Botox & Dysport work?
With a few tiny injections, Botox & Dysport block nerve impulses to the injected muscles, which reduces the muscle activity that causes those persistent wrinkles to form. This reduced muscle activity helps reduce the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between your brows.
Botox & Dysport are non-surgical treatments that temporarily soften frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases. There is not a significant difference in the effectiveness of the two injectable products. However, the staff of the Aesthetic Center of Lubbock may choose one versus the other depending on the area you are having treated or your personal preferences.
Treatment takes about 10 minutes and is done through a series of tiny injections – no anesthetic is required. You can expect to see the results within days after your treatment, and the appearance of the area may continue to improve for up to a month.
During your initial consultation, we will help you to determine the areas that need the most correction, based on your ability to move certain facial muscles.
