Top Botox® Mistakes to Avoid: What New Injectors Need to Know
New to injecting Botox®? This guide walks you through the most common mistakes—and how to avoid them—so you can deliver safe, natural-looking results your patients will love.
It is natural for skin to undergo a number of different changes as we get older.
The development of fine lines and wrinkles, scars from acne and thinning of the lips are all natural phenomenon.
These days, there are a number of different cosmetic treatments that are available that can help get rid of these skin changes.
Amongst the very many that are available, dermal fillers remain a popular treatment choice. In this article, we shall take a brief look at how best to choose a dermal filler, concentrating particularly on hyaluronic acid.
Dermal fillers are either natural or synthetic products that are injected into the skin or similar structures in order to enhance their appearance.
For example, dermal fillers can be injected under areas of scar tissue which have been formed over years due to previous acne.
These fillers tend to elevate the skin making it appear smooth. When choosing a dermal filler, it is important to ensure that you are using one that is safe and effective.
Natural dermal fillers are better than synthetic ones as the skin recognizes this as being one of its own. Hyaluronic acid is a natural dermal filler. In other words, it is a product which is normally present in the skin anyway but only a lot less in areas where there are skin deformities.
Hyaluronic acid is particularly useful in managing crow’s feet, wrinkles under the eyes and in lip enhancement.
Another important aspect to consider when undergoing dermal filler procedures is the development of any side-effects. It is natural for patients to have a small amount of bleeding or even bruising at the site of dermal filler injections.
However, allergic reactions are rare with natural dermal fillers. One of the reasons why dermal fillers have become popular these days is the fact that it is affordable.
However, cost should not be the only driving factor and when considering the use of a dermal filler to enhance your appearance, make sure that you choose the right professional who has the required training to inject the skin.
A discussion with them will offer useful advice on where dermal fillers may be of benefit to you. Individualized treatments are another reason why dermal fillers have become so popular.
Not every patient gets the same treatment and initial assessments can help determine what the future look of the person will be once they have undergone the procedure.
