The beauty of combining BOTOX COSMETIC® and filler treatments.

It’s quite logical – you can’t bake a cake with just one ingredient. When the correct ratio of ingredients come together by the skilled hand of a pastry chef, we can all agree the result is pretty irresistible.

We can apply the same logic to an age prevention strategy. There are several factors that play into a youthful appearance such as the textural quality of the skin, the skin’s tautness and the presence of lines and wrinkles. To only address one aging concern at a given time leaves the full picture of rejuvenation incomplete. This is where combining non-invasive treatments such as BOTOX COSMETIC® and fillers come into play.

Whether one is concerned with fine lines or deep wrinkles, neuromodulators like BOTOX COSMETIC® and fillers like JUVÉDERM® can be administered to erase them swiftly with little to no recovery time.

How do combined injectable treatments work?

BOTOX COSMETIC® treatments are used to smooth deep expression lines that are caused by sustained muscle tension. Wrinkles such as crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead wrinkles and even neck wrinkles can be addressed with a BOTOX COSMETIC® treatment. By relaxing the rigid muscles that are pulling the skin inward to form a wrinkle, the skin is smoothed and a refreshed and open appearance is restored.

Once these expression lines have been addressed, the next step is to restore facial volume to lessen the look of creases, folds and hollow areas that can make us look drawn or tired. Filler treatments are typically composed of cross-linked hyaluronic acid, which replaces lost facial volume due to shrinking fat, muscle and skin tissue. Filler treatments can be used to:

  • enhance thinning lips
  • redefine the lip line
  • smooth uneven contours and bulges along the jawline
  • rebuild fullness under the eyes, in the cheeks and at the temples
  • soften wrinkles and folds around the mouth area

Combining these treatments is often referred to as a global approach to facial rejuvenation. The aim is to achieve improved symmetry and balance while relieving the aforementioned aging concerns. In the hands of a skilled and experienced practitioner improvements are noticeable, but done in such a way that no one will be the wiser.
