3 Advantages of Getting Cosmetic Injections & Fillers

We all want to look younger but the fountain of youth has yet to be discovered.  A facelift can take years off your appearance but it is major surgery – something not everyone is interested in undergoing for a variety of reasons.  Injections and fillers have grown in popularity because they offer an array of features that keep both women and men coming back for more.  There are different injections and fillers to address each patient’s unique needs.  For example, Dysport is a prescription injection intended for use on moderate to severe frown lines.  It provides temporary improvement but has actually been shown to provide better and longer lasting results than Botox.  Restylane and Restylane Silk are a gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that works with your body’s own hyaluronic acid to immediately reduce moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds.  These results are not permanent but they are not a quick fix either!  They can last up to 18 months!  Additionally, Restylane Lyft is also a gel but is a thicker formulation of hyaluronic acid to that works in a similar way but adds volume and fullness to your skin.  It is great for wrinkles and has even been indicated for both cheek augmentation and the correction of age-related mid-face contour deficiencies.  All of these injections and fillers boast a variety of features and below we explain 3 benefits of using cosmetic injections and fillers.

1. Less Expensive Than Surgical Procedures

  • Cosmetic surgical procedures such as a face lift, eye lift, brow lift or anything else can be very effective at giving you a more youthful appearance.  The problem is that many people do not want to undergo the health risks, recovery time or cost of cosmetic surgery.  When done well and appropriately, cosmetic injections and fillers can provide similar results at a fraction of the cost without the risks or recovery time of surgery.

2. A More Youthful Appearance – Instantly

  • One of the most obvious and significant benefits of cosmetic injections and fillers is that they provide wrinkle reduction and elimination, often in an instant.  Yes, you can get your injections or fillers done on your lunch break and resume your life immediately with a more youthful appearance.

3. Wrinkle Prevention

  • Deep imprinted lines on your face do not just show up overnight and they are not simply the result of your skin losing elasticity – they have taken time, years and many facial expressions to form.  When you routinely use cosmetic injections and fillers you can actually prevent deep wrinkles from forming in the first place, preserving your youthful appearance for as long as possible.
