Women of Color and Injectables: What You Should Know

If you don’t have time for a relaxing vacation this summer, you may be considering cosmetic injections to help you achieve that relaxed, rested look.

So, you may be wondering about women of color and injectables. If you want the real scoop, read on!

You’re Eligible for the Same Great Results With Cosmetic Injections as People With Less Melanin

Yes, as a black or brown woman, you can experience the age-defying effects of Botox and other cosmetic injectables as women with light skin. And, if you’re worried about the stigma of women of color getting injections, don’t! 

You can achieve the joys of looking and feeling younger without the guilt. Many women are doing it and not feeling like they’re rejecting their heritage or ethnicity by wanting to improve their appearance.

You will look natural too, when your injections are done right. You shouldn’t worry that your results will be obvious because of your ethnicity. Injectables such as Dysport will give you that same subtle change that looks like you’ve simply gotten more rest just like it does for other women.

Your Injector Matters –  A Lot

Hyperpigmentation can occur from fillers and Botox, typically due to the injector’s lack of skill. You want an experienced injector whose results you can verify through before-and-after photos. 

Choose an injector who not only has experience with women of color and injectables, but IS of color, so you can trust they know and understand your unique skin care needs.
