What Is Botulinum Toxin?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As one of the go-to treatments for celebrities, you\u2019ve likely heard of BOTOX\u00ae or DYSPORT\u00ae over the years. But what exactly is it? Although it\u2019s widely known for its cosmetic benefits, it offers medical perks as well. Essentially, it\u2019s diluted botulinum toxin, which relaxes the hyperactive muscles it\u2019s injected into. As a result, it relieves tension and smooths fine lines and wrinkles. It can be administered in as little as 5-10 minutes and the results can be seen within the first week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are Dermal Fillers?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As skin ages, 1% of dermal collagen is lost per year, especially after 50 years of age. The skin houses 56% of the body\u2019s hyaluronic acid, which binds water up to 1,000x its volume.  Restylane\u00ae products from Galderma is a hyaluronic acid gel that rehydrates and adds volume back to deficient areas, which decreases wrinkles and provides a more youthful appearance.  Results are seen immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
