Both BOTOX Cosmetic and dermal fillers are an ideal way to produce a youthful, wrinkle-free appearance without the dangers or discomforts of facial plastic surgery.

2012-06-28

WASHINGTON, DC, June 28, 2012 (Press-News.org) Both BOTOX Cosmetic and dermal fillers are an ideal way to produce a youthful, wrinkle-free appearance without the dangers or discomforts of facial plastic surgery. Both BOTOX Cosmetic and dermal filler injections can provide a softer, fuller, and smoother facial appearance for men and women alike, but the product most suited to meet your needs will be dependent on your aesthetic desires and the recommendation of your cosmetic surgeon.

BOTOX Cosmetic

BOTOX Cosmetic is the most popular nonsurgical facial rejuvenation treatment in the United States. BOTOX Cosmetic works by temporarily disrupting the nerve signals that cause your facial muscles to contract. This, in turn, eliminates fine lines and deep wrinkles without interfering with proper facial movement. Treatment takes about ten minutes and a single series of injections can provide results that last up to four months. This treatment is safe and effective, but cannot provide long-lasting results.

Dermal Fillers

There are a number of different dermal fillers. Some dermal fillers boost collagen production while others restore your hyaluronic acid to significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and creases while also helping your skin look softer and fuller. Most dermal fillers require only one treatment, but the longevity of results depends on the type of filler you choose. Some fillers offer results for up to six months while others may last for 12 months or more. Your cosmetic surgeon will discuss all of your options and help you determine the type of filler best suited to meet your needs.

Personalized Options

There is no single solution for every face. When you are considering a nonsurgical cosmetic procedure, make sure you are working with an experienced facial cosmetic surgeon. Your facial cosmetic surgeon will be able to assess the quality of your skin, advise you of all of your options, and help you determine if BOTOX Cosmetic or dermal fillers will best help you reach your aesthetic goals.

If you live in or around Northern Virginia, Maryland, or Washington, D.C. and would like to learn more about your nonsurgical facial rejuvenation options, please visit the website of Nova Surgicare, PC for additional information at http://www.novasurgicare.com.
