The Inside Scoop on Injectables: Everything you need to know about two top trending treatments Image

Ready for a little rejuvenation and not sure where to begin? When choosing from the vast variety of aesthetic treatments on the market today, it can be easy to get a bit overwhelmed. With so many amazing options available, you might be wondering which one is right for you.

To help you get started, we’ve got the full scoop on two of our most popular injectable options – Botox and Profhilo. Read on for the who, what, where, when, why, and how behind these incredible trending treatments.

Botox

WHAT IS IT?

The original for addressing fine lines and preventing premature signs of aging, Botox® is an anti-wrinkle injectable. Botox® works using a substance injected into the skin to temporarily relax the facial muscles, thereby reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A miracle worker for turning back the clock and promoting overall more youthful skin, the botulinum toxin can also be used for jaw reshaping and addressing bruxism.

WHO IT’S FOR?

Botox® is particularly beneficial for preventing signs of aging. It can also be helpful for treating tight jaw muscles and teeth grinding.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT

By preventing repetitive crease-causing facial movements, Botox® can help reduce the appearance of signs of aging, resulting in smooth, taut, wrinkle-free skin. A typical treatment takes just 15-30 minutes, making it a quick, easy and minimally invasive alternative to more aggressive anti-aging procedures.

WHEN TO EXPECT RESULTS

Visible results appear within two weeks of treatment.

HOW OFTEN WILL YOU NEED IT?

On average, results last between 3-6 months, but will vary depending upon the area treated.

Profhilo

WHAT IS IT?

Profhilo is a skin booster that uses a hyaluronic acid based technology and dual action treatment to infuse hydration and remodel skin tissue. The production of skin-supporting collagen and elastin is stimulated by this procedure, which works to deliver plumping hyaluronic acid into the tissue, and encourages regeneration even after the active ingredient has fully absorbed.

WHO IT’S FOR?

Profhilo is appropriate for most skin types and is especially beneficial for dry skin, dull skin, sagging skin, aging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles.

WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT

Profhilo is non-invasive, and there is no downtime following treatment. This helps to quickly create a brighter, plumper, smoother and more supple complexion. Plus, an average treatment takes only 30 minutes, meaning you’re good-to-glow in no time.

WHEN TO EXPECT RESULTS

Visible results appear within two weeks of treatment.

HOW OFTEN WILL YOU NEED IT?

2 treatments, 4 week – 6 weeks apart
