As you look at your face more closely in the mirror, you can see fine lines forming around your eyes. In addition, you see that the skin above your eyes is becoming wrinkled. The situation is not overly concerning, but you would like to deal with these formations before they become more noticeable. Such observations do not warrant anything as involved as a facelift, but you are aware that the influences of time and gravity on your skin will continue to make the situation worse as you age. Fortunately, there is something you can do to improve your situation. While creams and serums do not hide the early signs of aging all that well, getting BOTOX® in Greensboro can be a simple approach to erasing the impact of fine lines and minor skin wrinkling.
What is BOTOX®?
BOTOX® is the commercial name for a purified protein solution that is used as an injectable substance in cosmetic procedures. Many people like using BOTOX® because it does not require any surgery. Also, there is virtually no recovery time after the injections have been completed. It works by temporary relaxing the region of the face where it is being injected. This occurs because the signals from the nerves controlling the muscle contractions are being blocked by the BOTOX® solution. Since the muscles do not get the signal to contract, this causes the muscles to remain in a relaxed state. Ultimately, this allows the skin on top of them to remain smooth.
Can Fillers Be Added?
To enhance the way BOTOX® works, it is common to inject fillers under the skin to get a better outcome. Fillers provide volume and lift from under the layers of skin that helps to keep fine lines and wrinkles less pronounced. This results in making the skin look more youthful overall. There are many kinds of fillers being used for this purpose today, so it is important to consult with a professional in Greensboro before deciding which one is best for you.
