If we didn’t truly appreciate the great work of those who manicure our nails, cut our hair and pamper our skin before, we sure do now. Life under lockdown has seen many of us having to get creative with our own DIY beauty treatments. While some of us have discovered a new skill, others might be longing for an expert touch. Fortunately, this is something you can always rely on with our highly-skilled doctors. They’re still on hand to help you look and feel your best with injectable treatments like botulinum toxin and dermal filler.
Bring back the smooth
Botulinum toxin is still one of the best solutions for dynamic wrinkles. The type that appears when your face is animated. By relaxing the muscle that’s responsible for the movement, you soften or even eliminate the lines. Popular treatment areas include crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles and glabella lines. These are the short vertical lines that can appear between the eyebrows and create an “angry” appearance.
While botulinum toxin is a brilliant wrinkle-buster, our doctors consider it a real multi-tasker. It used it to successfully help those suffering from TMJ (jaw clenching and grinding), calm down overactive sweat glands and even fix a gummy smile. These are all virtually painless, in-and-out procedures that any of our doctors could perform within minutes – and under the strictest hygiene conditions, of course!
Fill and sculpt
Another kind of wrinkle we treat at Skin Renewal is the static type. These are lines that are evident even when your face is relaxed, so they’re visible all the time. Most of the time, they’re the result of volume loss and the effects of gravity. Fortunately, we can plump these up with a little dermal filler.
We also use fillers to sculpt. For example, we can create a more prominent cheek that can even lift the jawline. We can even enhance your lips in a way that looks incredibly natural. No trout pouts to see here, thanks!
Best of both worlds
If lockdown and the stress are starting to reflect on your face, consider our ultimate injectable treatment – a 3D Liquid Facelift. It sees us use the best of both worlds - wrinkle-relaxing botulinum toxin and dermal fillers in one session. The goal is to give you a complete refresh that can take years off your face and often delay the desire for a more invasive surgical solution later on.
The results of the filler will be immediate. Your cheeks will be beautifully full in a way that can lift sagging in the lower part of the face. Any under eye hollows can be vanquished. We can also plump up your lips in a way that looks natural and fresh. Then, when the effects of the botulinum toxin become apparent after 10-14 days, you’ll get to enjoy a smoother-looking, sometimes even line-free complexion!
Ultimately, the number of injectables required and where the placement is will depend on what you want to achieve. You might even decide you want a few
