The Easiest Ways to Get Rid of Wrinkles and Fine Lines

 

If fine lines and wrinkles are adding years to your appearance, plastic surgery isn't your only option. Cosmetic surgeons and aesthetic treatment professionals now offer customized antiaging programs that only require a quick injection - with the help of dermal fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane.

Dermal fillers are a growing trend for baby boomers and those with aging skin, simply because they're lower in cost than the average facial rejuvenation procedure, and can give you instant results. If you're trying to decide between Juvederm and Restylane, this lens can help you decide which injectable will be the best choice for you.

Restylane Injections to Get Rid of Wrinkles 

What You Need to Know

Restylane has been named one of the top antiaging procedures by researchers at the University of Michigan, and continues to be a popular BOTOX alternative. According to RestylaneUSA.com, this cosmetic enhancer can "has been used in over 70 countries and in more than 1.4 million treatments in the U.S."

Restylane is a hyaluronic acid injectable filler that fills out fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, nose and mouth; it can be used with other facial rejuvenation procedures, and helps to bind skin tissues and muscles for a smoother, contoured look.

One of the biggest benefits of Restylane is that it can also stimulate collagen production. Since collagen levels diminish with age, increasing collagen production with facial rejuvenation treatments can enhance your appearance weeks after a treatment.

Other benefits of Restylane include:
-No pain or discomfort during and after treatment
-A natural-looking appearance after treatment
-Restoring skin's firmness and elasticity
-Low risk of complications since it does not contain animal products
-Can be used for lip augmentation as well as facial contouring

Consulting with a cosmetic surgeon that specializes in Restylane can help you determine if Restylane injectables are the right match for you.

Juvederm to Get Rid of Wrinkles 

What You Need to Know

Juvederm is another leading dermal filler available at several medical spas and cosmetic surgery centers across the country. Juvederm is designed to plump up wrinkles, reduce the appearance of fine lines and enhance natural facial contours.

Juvederm costs between $500 - $600 per treatment, and results can last up to six months. Since it is another hyaluronic acid filler that is slowly absorbed by the body, 'touch up' treatments will be necessary to maintain results.

Still, some of the latest treatments such as Ultra Juvederm and Juvederm Ultra Plus can last up to a year, say experts at CosmeticSurgery.com .

Choosing Between Juvederm and Restylane
