When you live in New York City, you always want to look your best. If you’re noticing concerning lines and creases on your face, there are an abundance of options available to you. You may choose to slather on a cream, improve hydration or even consider an injection of Botox. Although many of these options may produce positive side effects, Juvederm treatments are a safer alternative to Botox that will give you excellent results with little to no side effects. Botox is made from botulinum toxin A, an injectable substance made from the same bacteria that causes botulism. It works by paralyzing the muscles directly under the dermis, allowing the skin to lie more smoothly.
Alternatives to Botox such as Juvederm, are gaining popularity. Made from hyaluronic acid, which is naturally occurring in the body, Juvederm treatments pose no danger to your health. It sucks in and redistributes water throughout the skin to naturally fill fine lines and wrinkles, such as the nasolabial fold (the line that runs from your nose to the corners of your mouth). The side effects of this treatment are minimal compared to alternatives, and generally consist of pain and slight bruising. This option is ideal for newcomers who are unfamiliar with injectable cosmetic procedures and want a natural change to their appearance.
If you’re interested in exploring treatment options, a doctor can review your skincare concerns and help to determine the best course of action based upon the results you’re looking for. Juvederm treatments may be the best option to combat facial lines or wrinkles that are bothering you. The procedure is easy; a few injections in the targeted area and you’re all done. Because it’s a naturally occurring substance, it’s easy to dissolve any bumps that may occur. If you’re unsure what treatment will work best for your needs, make an appointment at the midtown Manhattan office of Smooth Med Spa. Regardless of which skincare option you choose, you’re sure to be satisfied with your results.
