Wrinkles Who Needs Them!
Dr. Zimmerman M.D., P.C. of Las Vegas, Nevada Back to Procedures
The
first thing you need to understand about Wrinkles:
Is that there are two different kinds
of wrinkles on our face, static and dynamic. Static wrinkles are the
lines and folds that are on the face all the time. Dynamic
wrinkles are the lines that appear when we have muscle movement
resulting in facial expressions (crow's feet, frown or forehead lines).
BOTOX® is designed to stop dynamic wrinkles. it prevents the nerves
ending from communicating to the muscle to contract. If you have lot of
dynamic movement in the upper third of your face, but very few static
wrinkles, you are an ideal candidate for BOTOX®.
BOTOX® is a registered trademark of Allergan, Inc.
BOTOX®
Is not a permanent solution. it can last from six weeks to 6
months. Most people average three to four months from
the injections.
Some people can use it once and never need it again, while others could
bathe in it and never respond.
You
should have you injections done by someone who does a fair amount of BOTOX®. otherwise you may have to bring a friend
to share the vial or
wait for BOTOX® day, which some offices do once or twice a month. We
inject fresh BOTOX® everyday of the week. Because of volume and
experience we are a member of Allergan's Preferred Provider Network. BOTOX®
is not a filler. It will not fill or plump up lines or
depressions in the skin that are present when your face is at rest. in order to improve deep set static lines you have
to plump them up with
some type of filler like Collagen™, Fascian™ or Radiesse®. Collagen™ has been around for years. In named
(the manufacturer of
Collagen™) mandates that people seeking injections have a least two
test spots to determine if there is an allergy to the product. Although
many people use Collagen™, the biggest complaint has always been
that
it does not last long enough.
Radiesse®
Radiesse is a safe, next generation cosmetic dermal filler that is
setting a new standard for the correction of facial lines and wrinkles
such as Nasolabial Folds. Years of rigorous clinical studies prove that
Radiesse lasts longer than the former leading filler, to safely fill and
correct smile lines, Nasolabial Folds and wrinkles around the nose and
mouth. Radiesse is made of unique calcium-based Radiesse microspheres
suspended in a natural gel that is injected into the skin through a
simple, safe and minimally invasive procedure. Simply put, Radiesse
treatments deliver a natural look that lasts. Radiesse works below the
skin’s surface. Tiny calcium-based microspheres form a “scaffold”
to support and stimulate the growth of your own collagen to create a
natural, full, youthful look. Radiesse does more than just temporarily
fill-in facial lines and wrinkles ─ it rebuilds your skin’s
foundation, without the risks associated with permanent fillers. Yes.
Over 250,000 patients have experienced Radiesse and more than 4,000
physicians have been trained to provide Radiesse treatments.
Through years of rigorous industry and independent research worldwide,
Radiesse has been shown to be safe and effective. With Radiesse, you get
safe, clinically tested, FDA Approved reliability. Why “fill in”
wrinkles with Radiesse? Over time, tissue volume diminishes, leaving
what is commonly seen as lines and wrinkles, including the deepening of
Nasolabial Folds, accentuated smile lines (sometimes called
“marionette lines”), fallen cheek pads and sagging jaw lines.
Radiesse can be injected into the skin in order to compensate or correct
these areas. By using your body’s ability to grow collagen and
regenerate tissue, Radiesse produces natural looking results for a
fresh, rested, healthy appearance that still looks like you. How soon
can I expect results? How long will the results last? The results
are immediate. Radiesse continues to deliver results as it works with
your body to stimulate new collagen and regenerate tissue. Results
typically can last a year or more, longer than the former leading
cosmetic dermal filler, saving you time and money. Since results may
vary, be sure to discuss your expectations with your doctor.
Is Radiesse permanent? No. Treatment results are relatively
long-lasting, but not permanent. Over time the tiny calcium-based
microspheres gradually break down into basic calcium and phosphate ions
which are safely and naturally absorbed into your body, leaving your own
collagen in their place.
Restylane®
Today,
many people are showing increasing interest in correcting wrinkles and
folds, shaping facial contours and augmenting the lips. With Restylane,
we
can offer our patients a complete solution for tissue-tailored facial
augmentation.
A natural beauty lift using the body’s own material. Restylane is a crystal-clear, biodegradable NASHA (Non-Animal Stabilized
Hyaluronic Acid) gel, which is injected into the dermis in tiny
amounts with a very fine needle. The result is instantaneous, producing a
long-lasting, natural enhancement, gentle and safe to the skin. Needs a
block to put it into lips and at least topical for NL folds. Since
it was launched in 1996, Restylane has undergone extensive histological
and clinical studies with an increasing body of evidence relating to its
ease of use, tolerability and effectiveness. Today, more than one
million treatments have been successfully carried out worldwide. Restylane
a
clear, hyaluronic acid gel that is FDA approved and lasts about 2X as long as collagen. Needs a block to put it into lips
and at least topical for NL folds, but a better product at a better price for
how long it lasts and no white dots visible under the skin. How
a wrinkle occurs As we age, the hyaluronic acid in the skin diminishes as cells lose
their ability to produce it. As a result, the skin becomes drier,
thinner and less able to restore itself after squeezing or indentation.
The loss of skin fullness also means that the skin becomes looser. All
in all, these factors lead to wrinkling and an older appearance of the
skin. Smoothing wrinkles by adding volume can make an enormous
difference to a patient’s appearance and sometimes make them look
several years younger. With Restylane, you can offer facial rejuvenation
without the use of foreign elements. For
the treatment of wrinkles or folds, Restylane is injected into the skin
in small amounts with a very fine needle. The injected gel gives natural
volume under the wrinkle, which is lifted up and smoothed out. The
results can be seen immediately. Treating wrinkles with Restylane is
fast and safe – and leaves no scars or other traces on the face. For Lips
For many women, a fuller, more sensual mouth comes high on their wish
list. With Restylane, you can offer a more pronounced mouth or a soft
pouting look using the body’s own material. Lip
augmentation is usually carried out in two steps – pouting and
contouring. To create a more pronounced mouth and fuller lips, Restylane
is injected into the upper and/or lower lip. This is often combined with
the marking of the vermilion border by injecting the gel along the lip
line. Redefining this edge leads to a more youthful and appealing look.
The philtrum ridges can be defined by injecting the gel into the lines.
To achieve the optimal result, a combination of these steps is often
used. Shaping
facial contours. Many people are looking for a slightly fuller shape for their chin. Just
a touch of additional volume can make an enormous difference, giving the
face a fuller or more defined appearance. Or perhaps your patient wants
a rounder, more sensual line along the cheeks to bring out that youthful
innocence? Injected
into the skin, Restylane®, Perlane® corrects deep folds and lifts up the
skin from the cheeks and chin, giving a new shape to the facial
contours.
