Aesthetics

To understand what injectables do, it’s important to understand what happens to the aging face. Over time, people acquire facial lines and wrinkles and the skin on their faces also starts to look less full. How wrinkled you get is partly genetic, but mostly determined by exposure to the sun. Sun exposure weakens the collagen and elastic tissue of the skin, which causes sagging and wrinkling. Over the years, the face also loses volume from a natural decrease in bone and fat that happens as we age. To help minimize the visible effects of aging, botulinum toxin injections and dermal fillers serve different purposes: Botulinum toxins soften lines by preventing muscles from contracting when we talk, chew or make facial expressions. This can cause a slightly less animated look in the face when expressing emotions, especially when administered by someone who is not well trained in the latest techniques. Dermal fillers smooth wrinkles and help plump up “hollowed out” areas of the face, such as in the cheeks where facial volume has been lost during the aging process. They can also help smooth scars and plump lips. Overfilling and other complications can result when fillers are administered by an unskilled individual. If you’re considering an injectable cosmetic treatment, your dermatologist can work with you to determine if you would benefit from Botox, a dermal filler or both in order to meet your aesthetic goals. Injectable treatments can cost several hundred dollars and are not covered by medical insurance when administered for cosmetic reasons.

Botulinum injections are commonly used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in several parts of the face: Crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes Forehead wrinkles Vertical “11-lines” between the brows Wrinkles around the mouth

Typically, a Botox treatment requires only 10-20 minutes in an examination room and ends with absolutely minimal or no discomfort. Usually, you can return to work immediately, while we recommend that you stay away from getting into strenuous activity until the next day.

First results usually appear 5 to 7 days after injection, and typically last from 90 to 120 days. Because these results don’t last forever, repeated injections are needed to preserve the achieved effects.

The most common Botox treatment areas are: 11 lines or glabella, forehead lines “crow’s feet”(lines around the eyes) However, Botox is a versatile drug and at Trifecta Med Spa it can be used for: Jaw reduction – gives one a softer and more visually pleasing appearance Calf muscle reduction – gives a thinner appearance to the calf area TMD disorder (or Bruxism) – this aching ailment causes irritation in the jaw area and often lead to teeth grinding and pain in the jaw area. We can help here at Trifecta Med Spa by using Botox to relax the jaw (masseter) muscles and dramatically reduce the effect of this disorder. Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis – Botox is effectively used for excessive sweating by blocking the release of acetylcholine, thus causing sweat glands to stop producing sweat. Around 20-25 minor injections to the underarm area effectively reduces sweating by up to 90% within 2 days period, lasting up to 10 month, or even longer.

The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery(ASAPS) named Botox the most popular physician administered aesthetic procedure in the USA for the seventh year in a row. It is very safe and a highly effective treatment. Botox makes people appear and feel more youthful without the dangers and costs traditionally associated with plastic surgery. We apply the injectable to prevent facial muscles’ movement – causing a smoother, renewed and fresh outlook on faces for extended duration. Although Botox is a temporary solution to facial wrinkles, consulting Dr. Ahsan Abdulghani, M.D. ensures that you will face no side-effects and complexities at all, as well as you will be able to resume normal life right after the session.
