“Tweakments” for Beginners: Dermal Fillers and Botox
“Tweakments”…did you read that right? Yes, you did. Tweak (or finely tune) your appearance with the best dermal filler and Botox treatments.
But, how do dermal fillers work? How long does it take to see Botox results? Which treatment is right for me? “Tweakments” for beginners: dermal fillers and Botox – here is what you need to know.
What Exactly Are Dermal Fillers?
Cosmetic injectables made of synthetic hyaluronic acid, dermal filler brands Juvéderm and Restylane are the most popular. They can correct a myriad of issues such as dark circles, fine lines / wrinkles, sunken cheeks, and thin lips.
You’ll notice a change in volume immediately after injections, though it takes a couple of weeks to see the desired effect. You can expect to enjoy your results for six to 18 months depending on the brand you choose.
What Can You Tell Me About Botox?
Pretty much a household name at this point, Botox is a neurotoxin that blocks nerve signals to targeted facial muscles. This causes them to stop contracting. This allows your skin to smooth and soften.
It only takes three to four days to see Botox begin to work. You’ll see your final outcome within 10 to 14 days. Botox results last around three to four months.
Can I Combine Dermal Fillers and Botox?
Let’s talk about how safe it is to combine “tweakments” for beginners: dermal fillers and Botox for a non-surgical facelift. Because Botox and dermal fillers treat different aging concerns, it’s quite popular for men and women to combine both treatments for enhanced results.
Both treatments are incredibly safe on their own, and they are just as safe when used together. Of course, it’ll cost a little more for both, but the results are so worth it!
