How To Extend The Life Of Your Botox and Dermal Fillers

Injectable beauty products, like dermal fillers and Botox, are an excellent way to reverse the signs of ageing. Botox prevents the onset of wrinkles and fine lines, while derma fillers reduce their appearance and make your skin look plump. While the results of these procedures may last a considerable time, they do eventually wear off.


Depending on the kind of injectable used on your skin, you may enjoy the skin rejuvenating benefits for anywhere between 6 months to a couple of years. We understand that you want to get the most out of your Botox and dermal fillers.


Here are some ways you can extend their life: New Paragraph

Sun protection

The sun’s UV rays are highly damaging to the skin. They break down skin cells and can even cause skin cancer. The UV rays reverse the benefits of your anti-ageing treatments, like Botox and fillers. That’s why we always recommend our patients to wear a UVA and UVB blocking sunscreen.



Avoid sun exposure during peak UV hours and wear protective clothing and accessories when outdoors.

Skincare

The effects of injectable products last longer on clients who take care of their skin. Those who moisturize their skin and keep it hydrated are more likely to have a glowing and youthful appearance.


Drinking plenty of water every day increases the water absorption of hyaluronic-based fillers, keeping the areas plump for much longer.

A balanced diet

The food you consume directly impacts your skin. Having food that’s low in nutrients leads to a dull complexion and increases the signs of ageing.



Stay away from processed and packaged foods, since they tend to have higher levels of saturated fats, sugar, sodium, and preservatives. To ensure optimal skin health, keep your sugar intake low too.

Zinc supplements

Zinc has been found to work well with Botox. Studies have revealed that those who consumed zinc supplements experienced an increase in the toxin effect duration.



Make sure you check with your physician before incorporating a new supplement into your routine.

Deal with stress in a healthy way

Stress is something we have to deal with in our daily life. Whether it’s stemming from your career or personal life, finding a healthy way to deal with it is the key to beautiful skin. Take time out regularly to destress and relax because high cortisol levels only accelerate the ageing process.

Marriage may not be the end of a fun life, but it is the end of single life. Bachelor and bachelorette parties celebrate a person’s last night as a married man or woman. These parties are also known as the hen, stag-dos in the UK, and Jack and Jill parties in Australia. Thomas Thurnell-Read , a sociologist at Loughborough University, describes these pre-wedding festivities as a rite of passage . When a young person switches from one phase of life to another, it’s an opportunity to celebrate with friends and family. Holding gendered-rituals like bachelorette parties to mark the end of being single has been a tradition since the 17th century . Modern bachelor and bachelorette parties in the 21st century are high-influenced by pop culture; for example, movies like the “The Hangover.” People spend a ton of money on their party arrangements and travel. According to a wedding site, The Knot, the average bachelorette party costs $537 per attendee in 2018. The activities involved in these parties include travel, accommodation, gifts, and food. From skydiving to destination weekends, and from wine tasting to a low-key spa evening , girls now have plenty of options to choose from. But if you’re on a budget and are looking for the perfect girls’ night, here are some creative ideas to get you started.

A body scrub is one of the most popular body care treatments. It is basically a facial for the entire body that hydrates and exfoliates the skin leaving it soft and smooth. The scrub is typically done with an abrasive material such as sugar or sea salt that is mixed with aromatic massage oils. After the scrub, the body is treated with a high-quality cream or lotion to soothe and hydrate the skin. A professional body scrub can only be performed by skilled aestheticians who are licenced and certified to work on the skin and have in-depth knowledge of how different skin types react to different products.  Here are some reasons why body scrubs should be a regular part of your beauty routine:

You don’t have genes of a Greek goddess or a closet full of expensive skincare products to look young and beautiful. If you want skin like J-Lo, Olivia Wilde, Miranda Kerr or any of the celebrities who look airbrushed in reality, you need to have a skin routine. Nothing gives your skin that youthful glow and healthy plumpness than a good night’s sleep. But there’s more to skincare than turning off the lights at 10 every night. Winters may have quit the scene, but the effects of harsh cold and dry winds are still pretty much there on your skin. You don’t want your skin to look scaly, dry, and cracked now, do you? That’s why you need to restore luster to your skin by getting a full body scrub.
