The body's skin loses its normal elasticity with the growing age, leading to wrinkles and sagginess. Thus, that person looks very old due to this wrinkled skin, which is not desirable. Luckily, there are some medical treatments discovered as the remedies of this natural problem, among which cosmetic injection is the most effective technique. The anti-wrinkle drug put into this injection syringe holds the capability of restoring the original elasticity of the skin. Botulinum toxin type A, or in short Botox, is the most common protein-based medicine used in this injection, while dermal fillers are also preferred by many dermatologists. Various forms of Hyaluronic acid are some other medicinal substances used for filling up anti-wrinkle injections or fillers.
Benefits obtained from the application of these cosmetic injections include:
1. Cheaper procedure: A cosmetic surgery is an expensive matter that cannot be afforded by all common people, even though it can make a person look much younger. On the other hand, a cosmetic injection can yield almost a similar result by eradicating all the wrinkles on facial skin and relaxing the skins, but at a much lower cost. These injections and fillers provide the same effect on the skin but save the surgical expenses and costs of post-surgical medications.
2. Restores the younger look: All types of skin can achieve a youthful look through injections and fillers, as these medications relax the facial muscles and flatten the skin. Thus, all wrinkles and fine lines of an aged skin disappear after administering a cosmetic injection, leaving a glowing young appearance. All the frown lines close to eyebrows, lines on the forehead and nose, crow’s feet, wrinkles on eye corners, and lines on the neck are eliminated by this injection.
3. Prevents further skin wrinkles: The cosmetic fillers and injections thicken the skin and restore its elasticity so that no further wrinkle or fine line can develop there. The effect of a cosmetic injection remains for a long time, during which that person need not worry about further wrinkle formations that may hamper his/her youthful look.
4. Least discomfort: Usually, these injections do not cause much pain except a sensation like an ant’s bite on the skin at the injection site. However, the sites of injection should be chosen correctly by the dermatologist, as injections at wrong places may cause some adverse reactions to a patient. Sometimes, a dermal filler may also feature negative side effects that can be a bit painful, if utmost care is not adopted by both the healthcare professional and the client.
5. Instant effect: It takes only a few seconds to administer a cosmetic injection to a person and he/she will see the effects of this injection almost instantly. Only a few minutes’ appointments with a reputed dermatologist can bring back the youth in the appearance of a person. Unlike cosmetic surgery, people do not need to take a whole day leave for this purpose, as the injection can be quickly taken during a lunch break or after office hours as well.
However, no one should attempt to take any over-the-counter medications for the treatment of wrinkles on aged skin. Only a licensed and well-experienced dermatologist should be approached for administering a cosmetic injection. The patient should seek all information regarding the risky side effects involved with this treatment before proceeding for it. The dermatologist should be informed of the general medical history of that person so that he can choose the right medication for the patient. Moreover, this type of cosmetic treatment is not covered by health insurance, and thus it is better to judge your financial aspect before going for it. It is better to take a person along with you while visiting the dermatologist for taking this injection so that you can have support if you feel sick after taking the injection.
