SHOULD I GET BOTOX OR FILLERS OR BOTH?
If signs of aging are getting you down, don’t assume your only option is going “under the knife.” A wealth of noninvasive options can take years off your face.
Fortunately, Dr. Pamela Kimbrough and her team at Life’s Cycle are here to help. She goes over what areas of your face you’d like to revive and refresh, and devises a treatment plan just for you. Aside from expertise that you can trust completely, when you come to one of our offices — in Ardmore and Norman, Oklahoma — you are assured of compassionate care.
WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS IF I WANT A FRESHER, MORE YOUTHFUL LOOK?
You have more options available to you than you may realize. As we mentioned before, you need to first think about what your beauty goals are. Do you want to erase wrinkles or plump up your face and give it volume?
BotoxⓇ and DysportⓇ are technically known as purified neurotoxins. What does this mean, exactly? When we repeatedly make expressions, from smiles to frowns and everything in between, lines form on our skin. These injectables actually freeze the movement of your facial muscles, which smooths the look of your skin.
First, the lines are fine and subtle, but as time goes on, they become deeper and defined. Botox and Dysport injections actually stop the movement of those facial muscles in their tracks. When your facial muscles can’t move, you no longer make the expressions that are responsible for the wrinkles! Your face becomes relaxed, and you look smoothed.
These treatments are great for minimizing:
The “11” lines that develop between your brows
Crows feet around your eyes
Lines etched into your forehead
We also offer the fillers JuvedermⓇ and RestylaneⓇ, which address areas of your face that thin because of aging, including:
Wrinkles surrounding your eyes
Frown lines
Vertical smokers lines on your lips
Smile lines
Forehead lines
Recessed scars
Lips that have lost fullness
Gaunt or sunken cheeks
Dermal fillers work because they contain an essential plumping agent: hyaluronic acid, or HA. Our own bodies make plenty of it as young people, but HA production drops off markedly as we age.
Thankfully, dermal fillers give your skin a lovely fullness, moistness, and all-over stronger foundation. Other patient-friendly advantages of fillers are:
Comfortable (we use a numbing agent or your injection includes lidocaine for comfort)
Long-lasting (6-18 months)
No post-treatment downtime
Getting retreated over time is standard and easy
In fact, we created the Brilliant DistinctionsⓇ program, with which dermal filler recipients are able save money on future treatments.
If you’re doubting the transformative benefits of Botox, Dysport, Juvederm, and Restylane, become a believer by visiting our service page and looking at “before and afters.” You could be next! And in terms of that classic question, which treatment should you choose?, seek guidance from us. We help you determine what your needs are so you end up looking fabulous!
