BOTOX Top of our list is Botulinum Toxin injections, more commonly referred to as Botox. You have probably heard this word countless times but let’s break down what this actually is & what it does. Botox is a neurotoxin that when administered correctly has a number of applications. Cosmetically it is mostly used to remove wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing muscles. It is injected into the problem area where it takes takes between 72 hours to 7 days to start working. By paralyzing the muscles underneath, the skin on top stops wrinkling, therefore attaining a more youthful and line free appearance. Botox is popularly used to treat forehead lines, crows feet (around the eyes), to lift the eyebrows to make eyes look less droopy etc. The effects of botox last from 3-6 months. The procedure generally doesn’t hurt but some patients experience bruising which can last up to a week.

2 Dermal Fillers Fillers do what they say in the name – they fill. As we age, our skin not only loses collagen (causing wrinkles) but also loses volume. The puppy fat we once loathed, as well as muscle/bone mass goes down as we get older & this depletion causes our skin to sag & become droopy. So while Botox stops the small muscles in your face from making the movements that cause wrinkles, fillers plump from below the wrinkle to smooth them out & promote a youthful look. There are many types of dermal fillers which depending on their thickness, pliability & other factors are suitable for different parts of the face but the most common
type of facial filler uses hyaluronic acid – the natural substance found in many areas of the body including eyeballs, joints & skin, that can hold 1000x its weight in water. Most dermal fillers are temporary (and most doctors & dermatologists advise against opting for permanent options) & last between 6 to 18 months. They are injected into the skin to restore lost volume, add lift & even reshape features. Fillers can be used to minimise undereye hollows & bags, sagging cheeks, for a subtle non surgical nose job, to get the appearance of higher cheekbones or a stronger chin. And of course they are often used to plump up lips.

This is a minimally invasive procedure used to renew overall skin tone and texture. The procedure uses a special applicator with an abrasive surface to gently sand away the thick outer layer of the skin to rejuvenate it. It can improve the appearance of sun damage, wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, acne scarring, melasma, and other skin-related concerns and conditions. A different microdermabrasion technique sprays fine particles of aluminum oxide or sodium bicarbonate with a vacuum/ suction to accomplish the same outcome as the abrasive surface. Some patients opt for a mild numbing cream for this process, but the procedure is generally painless if not entirely comfortable. The result is brighter looking skin and a more even toned & healthy complexion.
