Aesthetic Procedures
Aesthetics
With the rapid advancements in the field of cosmetics, aesthetic procedures have gained a lot of popularity. They have become the standard for age-related facial changes and enhancements. These procedures can be of many different types such as botulinum toxin and dermal filler injections, laser hair reduction, chemical peels and laser skin resurfacing. Botox treatment cost depends upon the type of treatment and whether it is invasive or non-invasive. With us, you will be recommended the procedure that is best suited for you at a price that is very reasonable.
DERMAL FILLERS
Typically made up of hyaluronic acid, dermal filler injections are popular due to the fact that they are minimally invasive which means that surgery is not required. The gel like substance fills in wrinkles and adds volume to tissue which means that the part of the face where the substance is injected appears to be fuller. Dermal fillers can be applied around the eyes, mouth and cheeks while lip fillers are applied directly to the lips.
TRUSCUPLT
A non-invasive RF (radio Frequency) technology that delivers deep heating to adipose tissue for body sculpting, fat reduction and skin tightening.
BOTOX
Botox (botulinum toxin) was the number one nonsurgical cosmetic procedure in the U.S. in 2017. Botox provides a smoother look to your skin and reduces wrinkles by blocking nerve impulses to tissues. Being a minimally invasive procedure, it is common in the world of cosmetics.
SKIN TIGHTENING
This is a popular aesthetic procedure due to the fact that it is non-invasive. Targeted energy is used to heat deeper layers of skin which stimulates collagen and elastin production which, in turn, improves the texture of the skin. Depending on the type of treatment, fibrous tissue might also be affected which helps smooth cellulite.
What is hyperhidrosis?
The common term for this condition is excessive sweating. However, this term doesn’t apply to those who merely sweat a lot at the gym or in the summer heat. Hyperhidrosis can typically strike at any time, anywhere. Usually, sweat will accumulate so much that it will start to soak through one’s clothing.
How can Botox help treat hyperhidrosis?
Just as Botox can paralyze the facial muscles so that they tighten, the treatment can also paralyze the nerves that control your sweat glands. Since they can’t do anything, they won’t trigger a sweating episode.
Typically, a doctor will inject several rounds of Botox into the affected area, such as your armpits or palms. The process takes just a few minutes, and the results can last for up to eight months. If you experience excessive sweating all the time, you will likely want to come in for follow-up treatments as the Botox wears off.
