Cosmetic Botox
Cosmetic botox is a simple, nonsurgical procedure performed by a highly qualified cosmetic surgeon. Cosmetic botox temporarily smoothes frown lines between the brows that are moderate to severe, in individuals who are between the ages 18 and 65 years.
Cosmetic botox is the only treatment of its type that is currently approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA). It also corrects wrinkles and fine lines in the neck caused by stress and age.
Cosmetic botox is also helpful at improving eye-muscle disorders. It can decrease the lines at the corners of the eyes (crow’s feet), at the base of the nose, between the eyes, and on the forehead.
Cost and Procedure
Each cosmetic botox injection normally costs between $200 and $400, and injection treatment will need to be repeated every six months. One minimally invasive treatment only lasts ten minutes. No anesthesia is required; however, the area can be numbed with an anesthetic cream or cold pack before administering the injections.
Pain is brief and minimal. A few small injections of Botulinum toxin type A will be made, and there will be a noticeable improvement within days. The results vary, and can last up to four months.
Side Effects and Results
Side effects are uncommon. However, some individuals have experienced temporary bruising at the injection site. Normal activities may be resumed immediately following cosmetic botox. Results begin to show up within three to ten days. Treated muscles will regain their function within three to five months.
Beauty Collagen
Beauty collagen injections give your skin a smoother, plumper look. It should be injected only by a trained healthcare professional. Collagen injections work to replenish the skin’s natural collagen.
Candidates
You and your doctor will discuss beforehand the areas you want to be treated, and your medical history. Cosmetic botox is not appropriate for certain scars and lines or when certain medical conditions are present.
If there are no concerns, the doctor will perform a skin test on the forearm to determine sensitivity to the substance. You will be monitored over a four-week time period. However, the majority of women and men tested showed no reaction.
Cost and Procedure
The average cost for collagen injections is approximately $363, and will need to be maintained two to four times per year to keep smoothing effects. The patient will receive a tiny injection of local anesthesia to numb the surrounding area.
There will be a possibility of redness, puffiness, and bruising, yet this will only last up to two days. Factors such as daily activities, skin type, and age will determine how long the collagen injections last. As results vary, typically, they can last six months or longer.
