Are you dreading the holidays because you know everyone will want to take pictures to capture the family memories? With Botox® and fillers on your side, you can look and feel younger, better rested, and more attractive in holiday snaps.
At New Image Medical Spa in Fremont, California, Dr. Surinder Sandhu and her team provide cosmetic injectables like Botox and fillers so you’ll look refreshed and ready for your holiday events.
Botox minimizes the appearance of the dynamic wrinkles that form when you smile, frown, squint, or make other common facial expressions. You should ask about Botox if you’re concerned about the upper half of your face and common wrinkles and lines that appear there:
Dr. Sandhu applies small injections of Botox along the line or wrinkle using an extremely small needle. The controlled dose of botulinum toxin works directly on the nerves that tell muscles to contract, preventing the muscles from contracting, causing your face to relax, and therefore reducing the depth and severity of lines and wrinkles in your face.
Results from Botox usually last around three to four months, although some people find they need injections repeated every two months and others discover that their results last as long as six months.
Fillers minimize the depth and shape of static wrinkles and lines, which are formed as you age and your body loses the collagen and elastin that keep your face looking supple and smooth. Ask about fillers if you’re more concerned about the appearance of your lower face, including:
Dr. Sandhu restores volume in chosen areas of your face using targeted injections of Juvéderm®, a filler made mainly of hyaluronic acid, or HA. Although HA is naturally produced by your body like collagen and elastin, production slows as you age.
Using filler injections helps to rejuvenate your appearance, plumping out fine lines and wrinkles and hydrating your skin from the inside out. You’ll love seeing the youthful contours of your face being restored.
As with Botox, Dr. Sandhu injects Juvéderm fillers with an extremely small needle, and the process only takes a few minutes. You’ll be able to go right back to your day with only the slightest discomfort.
Juvéderm results typically range from six months to a year, although certain filler formulations have been shown to last up to 24 months for some patients.
