The liquid facelift at Body Beautiful Day Spa is a non-surgical procedure that uses injections of dermal fillers and Botox to achieve results that are comparable to surgical facelifts – WITHOUT THE DOWN TIME OR EXPENSE! Fillers and Botox are used to plump features and fill cheeks, smooth lines and wrinkles, and to firm skin. The results are impressive, taking up to 10 years off in about an hour!
The use of Botox in addition to dermal fillers such as Juvederm in a Liquid Facelift provides better, longer-lasting results. Botox, approved by the FDA for cosmetic use in 2002, blocks the nerve impulses that cause muscle contractions. Botox relaxes overactive muscles that are responsible for creating facial wrinkles such as crow’s feet, deep brow furrows, and frown lines.
Botox can be especially useful when dermal fillers have been used to fill in expression lines, such as the creases that form when you smile, as repeated over-use of the surrounding muscles will cause the filler to break down more quickly. This breakdown shortens the length of time before more injections are needed to maintain results.
Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler. Because hyaluronic acid is present in everyone’s skin, it is an exceptionally well tolerated treatment. Juvederm is injected to add youthful volume to vertical lip lines, nasolabial folds (folds from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth), marionette lines (lines from the corner of the mouth to the chin), tear troughs, and cheeks.
