During the natural aging process, our skin begins to lose its youthfulness. These changes can manifest as fine lines and wrinkles. In order to maintain youthfulness, many people consider injectables. Injectables can tighten skin and diminish the appearance of wrinkles. In order to find out if injectables are right for you, you need to speak with a healthcare professional.
What are Injectables?
When researching cosmetic procedures, you may have come across the term “injectables.” Injectables may seem complicated to someone who is new to cosmetic procedures. However, understanding injectables do not have to be challenging. Injectables can be divided into two categories: toxins and fillers. Toxins are used to relax the muscles. A prime example is Botox. On the other hand, fillers give more shape and volume to the face. Sometimes toxins and fillers are combined to help patients achieve their desired look.
What Can I Expect?
You will be provided with an initial consultation. This initial consultation will help you and the medical professional understand your medical history, as well as your cosmetic goals. Your cosmetic surgeon will inform you about the expected outcomes of certain treatment options. This will help you understand possible results and what is the best treatment option for you. If injectables are right for you, the type and amount to be used are determined during consultation.
Injectables are a non-surgical option for skin rejuvenation that is highly sought-after due to their noninvasive nature. However, results are not typically permanent. Patients need to set multiple appointments to complete multiple treatment sessions. After the initial treatments, your cosmetic surgeon may suggest a schedule for follow-up appointments to maintain the results you achieve.
