Do you find it increasingly hard to keep up with the signs of aging? Fine lines and wrinkles, thinning hair, and a loss of volume are common issues that come with the passage of time. These cosmetic challenges can impact confidence and self-esteem. Dr. Jack Peterson and his team of professionals at Topeka are ready to help you get ready for a refreshed look with the use of cosmetic injectables.
Cosmetic injectables are topically applied products designed to rejuvenate the skin, and there are many different types available. Some are used to promote healthy skin and improve tone and texture, while others are designed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles or to re-build lost volume. Most of the injectables are known to be safe according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and they offer long-lasting results.
Choosing a Cosmetic Procedure
Cosmetic injectables are a popular choice, as they require minimal downtime and provide fast results. Dr. Peterson will assess your unique facial structure as well as discuss your goals and any concerns you may have, then tailor a treatment plan specifically for you. He will explain the different types of injectables available and will help you decide which one is right for you.
Types of Cosmetic Injectables
One of the most popular types of cosmetic injectables in the United States is botulinum toxin type A, also known as Botox. Botox is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as to prevent new ones from forming. Dr. Peterson also offers other botulinum toxin type A products like Dysport and Xeomin.
For those looking to restore lost volume or correct lines and wrinkles, hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm and Restylane may be the way to go. These fillers are applied in a few minutes and offer long-lasting results.
The Treatment Process
Before your treatment, Dr. Peterson will take a few minutes to go over everything with you, and to answer any questions you may have. The process itself usually takes between 15 to 60 minutes, and no anesthesia is required. You may feel a slight burning or stinging sensation, but it passes quickly. After the procedure, Dr. Peterson will give you specific instructions for the recovery period. Most people are able to get back to normal activities right away.
Increased Confidence
As you start to see the results of your treatment, it’s not uncommon for people to have a boost in confidence. Dr. Peterson and his team of professionals will be with you every step of the way, and are always available to answer any questions or concerns you may have. They want nothing more than for you to feel and look your best.
