What is Botox & Fillers?
Botox and Fillers are two types of non-surgical cosmetic treatments used to reduce wrinkles, enhance facial features, and achieve a more youthful appearance.
Botox:
Botox is a treatment made from a purified form of Botulinum toxin. It works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles, particularly in areas like the forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), and between the eyebrows.
This helps smooth out fine lines and wrinkles by preventing the facial muscles from contracting. If you are looking for Botox cosmetics Calicut, trained professionals at best plastic surgery in Calicut would be able to provide effective and safe Botox cosmetics in Calicut.
Fillers: Dermal fillers are injectable agents made typically of hyaluronic acid, an ingredient that is naturally found in skin, and also replaces lost volume in places where aging has depleted fullness in the face.
Fillers:
Dermal fillers are injectable substances, often made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. They add volume to areas that have lost fullness due to aging
Concerns Related to Botox & Fillers:
- Both Botox and fillers are temporary. Botox is typically effective for 3 to 6 months, while fillers can last between 6 months and 2 years depending on the filler.
- Common side effects include bruising, swelling, redness at the injection site, and discomfort. Rare but more serious complications include infections, allergic reactions, or drooping of facial muscles with Botox.
- Use or overuse of Botox or fillers may lead to an unnatural appearance, sometimes referred to as 'frozen face' when using Botox, or over-filled areas with fillers.
- Allergic reactions to filler materials, especially synthetic ones, are very rare but ,do occur.
- Non-symmetrical results not only can lead to unevenness, but can also lead to double vision, or drooping of facial feature with both fillers, if done incorrectly.
Benefits of Botox & Fillers:
- Ultimately, both Botox and fillers are non-surgical procedures that take only the injection and the downtime (which is typically minimal).
- Most patients are able to instantly return to their regular activity. With Botox, you can notice results in a few days, or almost immediate results from fillers.
- Botox effectively smooths out dynamic wrinkles, and fillers restore lost volume, giving a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
- These treatments can be tailored to individual needs, targeting specific areas of concern, whether it’s smoothing out wrinkles, adding volume, or enhancing facial contours.
- Both procedures require little or no downtime, which is certainly a positive for individuals with complicated lives.
