What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Have you ever wondered how celebrities always seem to look so young and fresh-faced? One of the reasons may be that they’ve had anti-wrinkle injections.
Ageing is a natural part of being a human being, but for cosmetic purposes some of us would like to slow down that process as much as possible.
A great way to ‘pause time’ for your skin could be to invest in a few anti wrinkle treatments.
Anti-wrinkle injections, or Botox, are a type of cosmetic injectable that helps to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines on the face.
If you’re considering getting anti-wrinkle injections with House of Saab, here’s what you need to know.
What Is The Difference Between Anti wrinkle Injections And A Dermal Filler Treatment?
Anti-Wrinkle Injections vs. Dermal Fillers: How Do They Work?
Both anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers are injected into the skin using a fine needle. However, that’s where the similarities end.
Anti-wrinkle Injections
Anti Wrinkle injections are a medical anti-aging treatment used for cosmetic purposes that are administered by qualified healthcare professionals. They can help to reduce and smooth the appearance of wrinkles in your face and neck.
The anti wrinkle injectables work by temporarily blocking the signals from nerves to muscles. When this happens, these tense facial muscles begin to relax, causing lines and wrinkles on the face such as those between your forehead or around the eyes to soften and diminish.
Whether you’re looking to prevent future wrinkles or soften existing ones, anti wrinkle injections can provide an efficient solution with natural-looking results. Many clients see a dramatic reduction in forehead lines and crow’s feet after just one session!
A series of anti wrinkle injection treatments can go a long way towards rejuvenating your features and restoring your youthful appearance – no surgery required!
With anti wrinkle injections, you’ll be giving yourself a luxurious treat that helps you look your best at any age.
Furthermore, anti wrinkle injectables are not permanent so you can rest easy knowing that you’re in control of how much natural beauty enhancement you want done.
All in all, anti wrinkle injections are an effective anti-aging solution perfect for anyone who wants a youthful complexion without undergoing surgery or using makeup.
Dermal Filler Injections
Dermal fillers are skin injections used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and enhance facial contours.
The procedure involves a qualified medical practitioner injecting Hyaluronic Acid, Poly-L-lactic acid or other specialised skin product into areas of the skin that need to be filled in. Depending on the patient’s needs and skin type, the filler is chosen accordingly.
Different fillers have different effects; some are designed to boost collagen production, while others are injected to soften wrinkles and lines. Factors like skin elasticity and amount of loose skin may also be taken into consideration when deciding which type of dermal filler is suitable for a patient.
Results can vary depending on personal body chemistry, but typically last between 6 – 12 months or longer with good skin care practices.
Dermal fillers are commonly used to treat areas such as around the eyes, cheeks, lips, jawline and forehead.
Dermal fillers address most of our cosmetic concerns regarding skin ageing while also providing a safe, yet highly effective way to restore young looking skin without having to undergo full-blown surgery.
Overall, dermal fillers offer great potential for rejuvenation when implanted correctly by an experienced practitioner for maximum results.
They help smooth out creases, lines and even improve skin volume in such a way that looks natural rather than artificial, so clients can still feel like themselves after treatment.
When performed by our certified House of Saab professionals, these age defying treatments can have long lasting results that subtly turn back time on sagging skin, giving it a fresher and more youthful look overall.
How Do Anti-Wrinkle Injections Work?
Anti-wrinkle injections are a non surgical treatment that works by paralysing the facial muscles that cause wrinkles.
These wrinkles are usually caused by facial expressions such as smiling, frowning or even sleeping on your side.
While this may sound a tad intense and scary, it is recognised to be a very safe non invasive treatment.
When these targeted muscles are paralysed, they restrict movement so they can’t form wrinkles. The most commonly injected areas are forehead lines, around the eyes, crow’s feet, frown lines and bunny lines between the eyebrows.
Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to treat wrinkles on other parts of the face, such as smile lines, necklines and can even be used to treat excessive sweating.
What Is The Age Range For Anti Wrinkle Injections?
There is no real ‘age range’ for anti wrinkle treatments but it is common for patients to consider this treatment around their mid 30’s. There is also no upper age limit, so you’re welcome to have your first treatment session at any age as long as you’re over 18.
