It seems like every time you look in the mirror, you see another sign of aging. The little wrinkle or sag isn’t much on its own, but when you add it to all the others, you’re starting to lose your younger self behind aging skin.
While a facelift is certainly a great way to reverse these unwelcome changes, cosmetic injectables are a less invasive step you might try first. These anti-aging treatments are so popular that nearly 16 million neuromodulator and soft tissue filler procedures were performed in the United States in 2022 alone.
While our name — Advanced Aesthetics Lopez Plastic Surgery — suggests we specialize in plastic surgery, we also offer minimally invasive cosmetic treatments through our L Med Spa.
Under the direction of Dr. Manuel Lopez, our team of highly trained providers can provide you with a liquid facelift that includes dermal fillers and Botox®, allowing you to quickly and easily hit the reset button on aging skin.
Here’s a look at all we can accomplish — in mere minutes — with a liquid facelift.
Relax those dynamic wrinkles around your forehead and eyes
Each time you smile, laugh, squint, or frown, these expressions are accentuated by lines that form around your eyes and forehead. When you’re young, these lines quickly disappear after you stop making the expression. However, these dynamic wrinkles can take up permanent residence on your face with age.
So, a big part of our liquid facelift is to relax and smooth out the lines around the top half of your face with the original neuromodulator — Botox. This injectable, which was first introduced more than two decades ago, can treat:
- Forehead lines
- Frown or brow lines
- Crow’s feet
With just a few quick injections, the active ingredient in Botox — onabotulinumtoxinA — relaxes the muscles that form these dynamic wrinkles. As a result, your skin is much smoother.
Aside from Botox, we also offer Dysport® — another effective neuromodulator.
Filling in the folds
Now, let’s travel to the bottom half of your face, where deep lines may have formed, such as the nasolabial folds around your mouth or the marionette lines on your chin. To tackle these folds, we turn to dermal fillers.
We offer only leading brands, such as Juvéderm®, Restylane®, and Sculptra®, which deliver hyaluronic acid or collagen-building gels that fill in your folds.
Turning up the volume with dermal fillers
While wrinkles may take center stage, there are other culprits when it comes to aging, such as a loss of volume. Perhaps your cheeks look more sunken because the layer of fat has shifted, or maybe your lips have become thinner.
Wherever you need volume for a more youthful appearance, we have you covered with dermal fillers.
Getting a lift
Lastly, another way in which we use dermal fillers is to lift sagging skin. While we can’t make a dramatic difference like a facelift, we can make some significant improvements.
For example, if small jowls have formed around your chin, we can strategically inject dermal fillers to lift the skin in this area. Or, we can inject some filler around your temples to lift the skin in your midface.
Clearly, there’s much we can achieve with our comprehensive suite of cosmetic injectables. To learn how we can best dial back the years in your face with a liquid facelift, we invite you to contact us at one of our six convenient locations in the San Antonio area. Our friendly staff is available to assist and answer any of your questions regarding Botox and fillers.
