With the innovation of in-office, cosmetic injectables, turning back the hands of time is no longer a shot in the dark.

Gone are the days of undergoing extreme, invasive, costly surgical procedures to achieve a more youthful-looking appearance. Men and women have been turning to cosmetic injectables in the modest quest to fight the ravages of time. In short, aesthetics is big business in the cosmetic industry – and for good reason!

If you’re looking to rejuvenate your appearance or wish to maintain a youthful-looking appearance, consider undergoing nonsurgical, minimally invasive, cosmetic injectables to achieve your desired look. Cosmetic injectables – both fillers and toxins – such as Botox® Cosmetic, Jeuveau®, Dysport®, Juvederm®, RHA® and Restylane® are still the most requested and most popular. These are the best ways to win the war on wrinkles, proving time and again to be the most effective, fast, and safe ways to restore a more youthful look.

Injectables are quick, fairly painless, and require little to no preparation and no recovery or downtime. Patients begin to enjoy their new, youthful results almost immediately following a dermal filler procedure. By comparison, neurotoxins will begin to take effect within a few days to a week, with effects maximining at the 2-week mark. Filler results last anywhere from 6 months to a year or longer.  On the other hand, the skin-smoothing effects of neurotoxins will begin to wear off between three and four months before follow-up treatments are required. Not to mention no cutting, no scarring and no scary side effects!

Injectables Customized to Your Beauty Goals

Everyone’s beauty goals, cosmetic concerns and skin needs are unique. Aesthetic procedures can be completely customized to meet your goals and help you achieve the most desired, beautiful and natural-looking results. Some clients may simply want to smooth expression lines from their forehead, between the eybrows (the 11’s), and around eyes (crow’s feet), while others may be looking to address volume loss in their face.  In fact, there are clients looking to undergo a strategic combination of both neurotoxins or Botox AND fillers to achieve a more refreshed, rejuvenated look to their appearance overall. Whatever the case, cosmetic injectables offer versatility, affordability, and accessibility without stepping foot near a scalpel. They are the go-to’s for keeping lines at bay and facial contours dewy, plump, and jaw-droppingly youthful.

Getting to Know Your ’tox: Neurotoxins

Botox® Cosmetic, Jeuveau®, and Dysport® injections are powerful, FDA-approved, cosmetic treatments that are performed in-office in just a matter of minutes and require virtually zero downtime. Toxins safely and temporarily “paralyze” the underlying facial muscles to prevent repetitive contractions. For that reason, these magical injections reduce muscle movement to prevent and decrease appearance of unwanted crinkling and creasing of the overlying skin. Each of these top neurotoxin brands promises visibly remarkable results for a restored, renewed appearance. As a matter of fact, these treatments come without the scary side effects, cost, and commitment of more invasive, dramatic procedures, like a face lift.

The most common areas for neurotoxin injections include the forehead, between the eyebrows, crow’s feet, and “bunny lines” on the sides of the nose. What’s more, there are many new techniques for using Botox and other neurotoxins for creating lift to contour the lower face, and sculpt the neck and shoulders. It also works for excessive sweating. In general, regular neurotoxin injections to targeted facial areas will safely reduce movement of the underlying muscles of these dynamic wrinkles, leaving skin positively smooth, tight, and youthful looking. Your DG Aesthetics injector has the knowledge of facial anatomy and will deliver natural-looking, skin-smoothing results effectively and strategically without that fake or frozen look.  Our goal is to maintain some of your face’s natural, expressive movement without the undesirable etching of wrinkles and crinkles.

Fillers: These Injectables are a Fast, Fuss-free Way to a Plumper, More Contoured Complexion

Juvederm®, RHA®, and Restylane® are FDA-approved, tried-and-true, hyaluronic acid-based, dermal filler brands. These work to volumize areas of the face that have begun to show signs of aging —  specifically to correct creases, folds, and fine lines around the nose and mouth (nasolabial folds) and marionette lines (lines that extend from edge of mouth to jawline). The versatility of dermal fillers is endless. It can also be used to sculpt the chin and jawline, fill undereye hollows, contour cheeks, and plump the pout for either a subtle enhancement or more dramatic, voluptuous look to the lips.

Dermal Fillers are FDA-approved, safe, and highly effective with remarkable results.  Restylane, RHA, and Juvéderm have a vast menu of filler types that are close in similarity to the human body’s own skin-softening hyaluronic acid molecules. Like Botox, Jeuveau or Dysport, it’s just a matter of personal preference. Of course, your DG Aesthetics clinician can help you make the most informed decision for your specific cosmetic concerns.

Depending on the brand of dermal filler, patients can expect their revitalized, “bouncy,” beautiful look to last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years. Because Juvéderm, RHA and Restylane are comprised primarily of hyaluronic acid, the body will safely and eventually re-absorb the product and your original look prior to treatment. Most patients will follow-up with touch-up treatments every six months to keep their new aesthetic look from fading. You will see fast, fuss-free, virtually painless results with dermal fillers, and they require minimal to no downtime. Fillers are an inexpensive, effective, and accessible alternative to invasive cosmetic surgery, providing a rejuvenated and revitalized appearance.
