fillers 101

The liquid facelift is the latest trend in non-surgical aesthetic medicine. Simply put, it is a combination of advanced dermal fillers, such as Fillmed, Restylane, Pluryal, Juvederm, and injectable fillers from Radiesse, hydrating fillers, such as Profhilo, and neurotoxins, such as botulinum toxin A in Botox or famous brand Dysport, or even Synvisc. It is also possible to have a liquid facelift procedure done without the neurotoxin component.

The term “liquid facelift” is somewhat of a misnomer because it is not really a facelift. However, when a liquid facelift is done correctly and skillfully, it is possible to achieve an extremely satisfying outcome, albeit not of the same caliber as a surgical facelift. A liquid facelift is often recommended to patients who are anxious of undergoing surgical treatments, or who are simply not good candidates for surgery.

 

The liquid facelift technique can significantly improve a patient’s appearance. It is effective in reducing the appearance of wrinkles and folds, contouring the face, and giving an overall youthful appearance. Repeat sessions are often necessary to obtain maximum benefits.

 

Liquid facelift is a promising procedure

 

New products and techniques to slow down the aging process are being introduced all the time. These newer products and techniques are less expensive and less invasive than the older ones. While soft-tissue injectables can turn back the hands of time, they often require yearly maintenance. Before you decide to book an appointment for a cosmetic injection, you must do your research and find a qualified doctor to carry out the procedure.

 

Is Liquid facelift a better alternative than a surgical facelift?

 

A liquid facelift is a good alternative to, but not a replacement for, traditional facelift surgery. It is important to assess the patient’s condition and desired outcome. If there is quite a bit of sagging, you may be better suited for a thread lift or surgical facelift.

 

Soft-tissue augmentations, with the help of dermal fillers, have quickly become a popular doctor-administered cosmetic procedure in the United States. Dermal fillers that are available today have different modes of action and require different injection techniques. A responsible health-care provider must be knowledgeable about the pros and cons of the product, as well as which injection techniques to use for optimal results.
