Understanding the Popularity of Botox

March 27, 2017 by admin

There are lots of products within the beauty and dermatology industry to help improve the health and appearance of the skin. Two of the most popular ones, however, are laser treatment, and Botox treatment. When considering how many Newport Beach Botox specialists exist, it quickly becomes clear that this is the most popular of the two. Let’s take a look at both, however.

What Is Laser Skin Removal?

Through laser skin remove, skin that has been damaged by time and the sun is removed. At the same time, the body is encouraged to grow new, healthy, glowing skin. This is a particularly effective procedure for wrinkles on not just the face, but also the neck. Additionally, it targets the entire complexion, and not just the wrinkles.

Laser skin removal is very popular because:

  • It helps to remove premature wrinkles.
  • It doesn’t hurt.
  • The procedure is very quick.
  • The effects can be noticed very rapidly.

There are some drawbacks to the procedure, however, including:

  • It does involve some preparation and aftercare.
  • It is not permanent.
  • It is not as effective on really deep wrinkles.

What Is Botox?

Botox is a toxic substance, the botulism toxin, that was originally developed to treat a variety of medical conditions, including eye muscle spasms, migraines, and excessive sweating. However, it quickly became clear that it was also very beneficial in treating the appearance of wrinkles. Botox injections are now one of the most performed cosmetic procedures the world over.

Botox is popular because:

  • It is affordable.
  • It is relatively painless
  • It is a quick procedure.
  • The results can be noticed quite rapidly.
  • You can have preemptive Botox, which means you avoid wrinkles later on in life.

At the same time, it has some significant drawbacks, including:

  • Results only last for around four months, which means you have to have it repeated quite often.
  • Some bruising can occur at the injection site.
  • There are possible risks associated, although these are rare.
  • The procedure is not as effective on very deep wrinkles.
  • It doesn’t affect the complexity of the skin, so other signs of aging remain in place.
  • It cannot be used on every wrinkle, not even on the face.

These are just two of the cosmetic procedures that have gained in popularity as of late. As they become more affordable, more and more people are having either laser wrinkle removal or Botox completed to make them look younger again. We live in a society where looking young is hugely important, and this does bring with it another risk: addiction to cosmetic procedures. It is very important, therefore, to choose a reputable specialist, who will only perform the procedures as often as is required. Without that, laser wrinkle removal can take too much of the skin layer away, and Botox can lead to a frozen face. Unfortunately, there are quite a few unscrupulous “specialists” out there, including those who host Botox parties, making it all too easy for people who want too much, to be able to get it.

How to Make Yourself Look Younger

February 25, 2017 by admin

Every day, you get a day older unfortunately. This means that you may also be after some tips to, at least on the surface, stop Father Time and his ravaging effects. Below are some of the options available to you, which includes Ultherapy.

  1. Botox

Botox can do a whole lot of things for you, including:

  • Erase glabellar wrinkles and frown lines, so you stop looking angry.
  • Get rid of those wrinkles on your forehead. You only need between 10 and 20 units, and you won’t have wrinkles for around four months!
  • Lessen crow’s feet and wrinkles. In fact, the FDA has approved it for this.
  • Help to lift your brows, opening up your eyes and making you look more awake.
  • Fill those vertical lines around your mouth.
  1. Obagi

Obagi created ELASTIderm, which also helps to treat crow’s feet around your eyes. This works particularly well in combination with Botox. Obagi Clear, meanwhile, helps to address the  bags under your eyes.

  1. Ultherapy

Generally considered to be the best way to get rid of nasty crow’s feet, Ultherapy is one of the latest therapies around. Best of all, you use it as a standalone treatment, which means you don’t have to get Botox as well, nor do you have to invest in ELASTIderm.

Ultherapy also works really well if you want to lift your brows and open up your eyes. Furthermore, it has been shown to help improve the thin lines around your mouth as well. Also, the FDA has approved Ultherapy to help with sagging skin around the neck area.

  1. Juvederm Ultra Plus

Juvederm Voluma has been approved by the FDA for filling your temples. Results last about two years. Juvederm Ultra XC, meanwhile, helps you to fill the hollow bags under your eyes. It can also be used to plump your lips up, and looks incredibly natural. It can even be used to tighten up the skin on your hands.

  1. Latisse

Latisse, another FDA approved tool, will help you to develop beautiful lashes. It has been clinically proven to make your lashes longer, thicker, and darker in between eight and 16 weeks.

  1. Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers work really well on the lines around your mouth, and even more so if used in combination with Botox. They can also benefit you if you want your hands to rejuvenate.

  1. CoolSculpting

CoolSculpting is the perfect procedure if you want to get rid of fatty bulges. It effectively freezes all those stubborn bulgy areas. It takes just an hour to complete, and you will be ready to get back to your daily life straight away. In fact, you could do it during your lunch break. And the results last a long time as well!

Put together, all of these therapies could easily take decades off your look. Best of all, none of them are classed as surgical procedures, which means you won’t have to take time out of your life in order to recover. At most, you could have a little bit of bruising for a few days, but that is all.
