Botox

Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA), also called botulinum toxin type A, is made from the bacteria that causes botulism, a type of food poisoning. Botulinum toxin blocks nerve activity in the muscles, causing a temporary paralyze muscle activity. When Botox (Botulinum Toxin Type A) is injected into the muscle, it stops the nerve signals that are sent to the muscles. The muscles are prevented from contracting, and this results in muscle relaxation. The fine lines and wrinkles then smooth out and not have the opportunity to form deeper ridges and creases on the face. Proper Botox injection techniques by an expert injector should result in a younger, smoother appearance.

Dermal Fillers

If you want to reduce facial wrinkles and lines, hyaluronic acid may be a good choice as a dermal filler because of its compatibility with the human body. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in your body. High concentrations are found in soft connective tissues and in the fluid surrounding your eyes. It is also in some cartilage and joint fluids, as well as skin tissue. It is extracted and reformulated and now has become one of the most popular kinds of injectable fillers. When this gel is injected, it acts like an inflated cushion to support facial structures and tissues that may have lost volume or elasticity due to normal aging. It also brings water to the surface of skin to keep it looking fresh and younger.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment

Platelet-rich plasma (Abbreviation: PRP) is blood plasma that has been enriched with platelets. PRP injections are a new medical technology used in the treatment of many sport injuries and also for rejuvenation of the skin, muscle and other tissues in body. PRP is blood plasma that has been enriched with more platelets than what is typically found in blood. platelets also contain hundreds of proteins called growth factors which are very important in the healing of injuries. PRP therapy, takes approximately twenty minutes to complete, begins with collection of30 milliliters of the patient’s blood. The blood sample is placed in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma from the other components of whole blood. Doctors then inject the concentrated platelets into the area (face, neck or injured area). Platelets function as a natural reservoir for growth factors that are essential to repair tissues. The growth factors that the platelets secrete stimulate tissue recovery by increasing collagen production. The result starts to show up from 1 month up to 6 months. The side effects of PRP injections are very limited as the patient is utilizing their own blood, which they should have no reaction to.

Mesotherapy
