The Power of Injectables: Understanding Botox and Fillers
Can you imagine if you could magically erase your fine lines or enhance your appearance? With injectables like Botox and fillers, you can! Let’s dive into the wondrous world of injectables, to help you understand the power of these secret weapons against aging.
Let’s talk about the basics. Cosmetic injectables are a nonsurgical treatment used to smooth your skin, enhance certain body parts, and sculpt your appearance. There are many different types of injectables and each serves a different purpose. So let’s discuss some of the most popular cosmetic injectables:
- Dermal Fillers: These injectables are predominantly used for nonsurgical facial and body augmentations by refreshing and volumizing the skin. Dermal fillers are used for a variety of reasons, such as lip enhancement, dark circle prevention, chin/cheek contour, jawline augmentations, acne scar removal, fine line volumizing, and even a butt lift. The results of dermal fillers are immediate and can last up to a year, keeping your skin full and beautiful.
- Botox: This miraculous neurotoxin injectable works to prevent wrinkle formation by immobilizing the muscles in your skin. Overusing the muscles in your face can cause wrinkles over time, such as the 11 lines between your eyebrows from squinting or the crow’s feet below your lips from frowning. Botox can prevent excess use of these muscles, smoothing and preventing fine lines. In addition to wrinkles, Botox can also aid in facial enhancements, hair loss, and excess sweating. The power of Botox knows no bounds!
- QWO: Cellulite is extremely common among women and can be tricky to navigate. Thankfully, QWO injectables can help! QWO is an enzymatic injection that works to break down the collagen causing cellulite on the butt and legs. The treatment is quick and easy with little side effects apart from some bruising so you can look good ASAP.
- Kybella: Another enzymatic injection, Kybella works to dissolve stubborn fat pockets in various areas of the body. Kybella is predominantly used to reduce fat deposits in the neck producing a sharp, contoured jawline. But it can also be used for small fat deposits around the elbow, butt, and knee. Kybella treatments are usually divided over 3 sessions within 2 months to achieve unbelievably beautiful results.
