Aging can change a lot of things in your body, including your skin. While these changes are normal, they may not be changes you appreciate. You don’t have to deal with these changes forever. At Biotech Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Spa in Aventura, FL, our Belotero treatments can help you feel your best.
How Long Does It Take for Belotero to Work?
If you’re looking for an effective way to treat wrinkles and volume loss in your face, then a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler like Belotero can help. Losing volume can make your skin looser which in turn results in sagging and wrinkling. You may not be happy with the way this makes your skin look.
This dermal filler provides a highly effective way of maintaining a fuller, more youthful appearance. And one of the best parts is that you’ll see results almost immediately after your treatment as the product fills in the space beneath your skin. Over the following days, your results will be even more noticeable.
Why Does Skin Change?
It’s natural to see a change in the appearance and texture of your skin as you get older, but these changes aren’t necessarily welcome. So what causes them anyway? Your skin is made up of various chemicals including the proteins collagen and elastin as well as the sugar hyaluronic acid. When you’re young, you have higher levels of these chemicals. But as you get older, your skin stops being able to produce as much of them.
This results in a loss of volume as you lose hyaluronic acid. Your skin also becomes less able to smooth out effectively when the muscles beneath are relaxed because of the diminishing levels of collagen and elastin. This results in wrinkling and sagging.
How Does Belotero Work?
This dermal filler is applied to your desired areas using a fine and precise needle. The hyaluronic acid in the filler will fill in the areas where you’ve lost volume, providing a more voluminous look that makes your skin appear and feel younger. It attracts moisture which helps you maintain your results for longer.
Hyaluronic acid also helps by stimulating your body’s production of collagen. This will help your skin stay firm and supple-looking.
What Areas Can It Target?
If you’re thinking of receiving this treatment, you might be wondering what you can target with it. There are lots of ways that this injectable can help you look younger. Here are a few common places where people receive treatment.
Forehead Lines
Volume loss occurs all over the face. When combined with repeated muscle movements, this can result in the formation of permanent wrinkles One of the places where you may notice this happening is on your forehead.
When you lift your brows, you’ll likely notice horizontal lines forming as the skin creases. Over time, these lines may become permanent. One of the best ways to fill in lines on your forehead is by using a dermal filler like this one. You’ll fill in any lost volume, smoothing out these wrinkles and making you look younger.
Crow’s Feet
The skin around your eyes is thinner than it is on the rest of your face. That means that you’re likely to see signs of aging quickly and more dramatically in this area. The little lines that form around the outer corners of your eyes are called crow’s feet, and they can make you look far older than you are.
These lines can be difficult to target, but this dermal filler can effectively fill in the area around your eyes. This will smooth out your crow’s feet and help you look much younger.
Undereye Bags
Because the skin around your eyes is so much thinner than on the rest of your face, it’s common to see undereye bags as the area loses volume. These bags can make you look perpetually tired, which may not be an appearance you like.
This dermal filler provides a really effective way of filling in your undereye bags. Doing this will help you look more awake and alert, and it will make your eyes look younger and brighter.
Cheeks
The skin all over your body loses volume as you get older, but one of the places where this is most evident is in your cheeks. While your cheeks may appear full and round in your youth, getting older will most likely result in your cheeks becoming hollower.
As you lose volume here, you’ll probably also notice the skin starting to sag which can result in jowls forming. You can get this dermal filler to fill in your cheek area, lifting the skin and providing more defined, rounder, and younger-looking cheeks.
Laugh Lines
When you smile or laugh, you’ll likely see lines forming in between your nose and mouth area. As your skin loses its structural integrity, these lines will become permanent over time. The wrinkles that form are called nasolabial folds, laugh lines, or smile lines.
These wrinkles can age your appearance considerably. If you’re looking to maintain a younger appearance, then this dermal filler can help. The hyaluronic acid will add in more volume while also helping your skin to produce more collagen which will help to keep it firm.
Lips
Are you unhappy with the way your lips look? If you have thin lips, you may not appreciate how severe they make you look. Your lips may also lose volume as you get older, making them appear even thinner.
This dermal filler is a great way to target your lip area, plumping them for a younger, healthier look. Your lips will look fuller and more defined, and filling them in can also help eliminate the appearance of lipstick lines that may have begun to form.
Acne Scars
One of the great benefits of this dermal filler is that it’s not only a great way to treat signs of aging like volume loss and wrinkling. It can also be used to target certain acne scars.
If you have scarring from acne, then booking a consultation with us can help you determine if this might be an effective way to treat your scars.
Who Should Get Belotero?
There are plenty of great reasons to choose this dermal filler. If you’re concerned about the above areas and you’re in overall good health, you could be a good candidate for this treatment. There are several other reasons why you might want to consider it.
It Lasts a Long Time
As you already know, this filler offers a fast-acting solution for your aging concerns. You’ll see a change in your appearance as soon as your treatment is done, with results becoming more noticeable over the coming days.
But one of the other great things about it is that it’s long-lasting too. Depending on the area you’re targeting, you can expect to enjoy your results for somewhere between 6 to 18 months. Help your results last even longer by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and keeping up with a regular skincare routine.
It’s Non-Invasive
There are lots of options to consider if you’re looking for a cosmetic treatment. One option is a surgical procedure. But while these procedures can offer long-lasting and effective results, they may not be right for everyone.
Those looking to avoid invasive procedures should look into an injectable filler like this one. You’ll get effective, long-lasting results without having to worry about a long treatment or lengthy recovery period. The treatment will be fast and easy, and your post-treatment recovery will require essentially no downtime.
It’s Safe
Of course, one of the main things to think about when it comes to any type of treatment is safety. There are lots of treatment options including other dermal fillers out there, but not every option will be safe for everybody.
One of the great things about this particular dermal filler is that it’s extremely safe. Hyaluronic acid is something you find naturally in your skin anyway. It also helps to stimulate a process that your body performs on its own. The formula is carefully designed to be safe, and the product has been approved by the FDA since 2011.
