With the demand for facial injectables on the rise, it is important to understand which is best for your skin and why. Our office is happy to make this information as accessible as possible to the people of Broward County, including Fort Lauderdale, and South Florida.
About Facial Toxins
If you’re looking for something to smooth out those frown lines or crow’s feet, then you’re looking for either Botox® or Dysport®. Both help get rid of wrinkles on the forehead as cause by facial expressions.
These injections are some of the most popular procedures because they are practically painless and the results are noted within only days. There is no downtime. You will be able to return to your normal schedule immediately after your treatment. The results should last for four to six months and can be continued if so desired. You’ll be happy to know that Dr. Levens won the award for Top Botox® Doctor of 2013.
About Fillers
Our office offers a variety of filler options, mostly various hyaluronic acid (HA) injectables such as the Restylane® and Juvederm® families of products. These are used to reduce lines and wrinkles and help restore facial volume lost with aging by using a naturally occurring component of the skin to fill in the crevices in your skin and support deeper losses. Hyaluronic acid also hydrates the skin and boosts volume to restore a youthful glow to the face.
All HA fillers are non-surgical treatments that take only minutes to administer with a topical anesthetic and ice application to ease the minor discomfort. They produce immediate results with no downtime. The results may last from 6 months to 1 year.
If you have any questions about any of these safe, minimally invasive and popular injectables or wish to schedule an appointment, contact our office today.
