A Fat Transfer Can Flatten Deep Facial Grooves

Creases from below the eyelids to the chin are best treated by filling them. Even a facelift can not flatten deep nasolabial grooves. The choices for filling them are fat, Collagen and Restylane or Radiance. For large amounts, fat can be harvested with a small suction procedure and reinjected. This fat, like collagen, will mostly dissolve over several months. For smaller amounts Collagen is quicker, easier and requires no donor site.

BOTOX® Injections Thousand Oaks

The beauty of a BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment is that it's a simple, 10-minute, non-surgical process. Treatment consists of a few tiny injections of very low dosage, made through a very fine needle, directly into the appropriate muscles. Results may vary. And there’s no recovery time. You can even do it on your lunch break. You can request that the area be desensitized with a cold pack or anesthetic cream prior to beginning, though most patients experience only brief mild discomfort. The process takes only about ten minutes, and a noticeable improvement in your frown lines appears within a few days. The results generally last around four to six months, after which time the injections can be repeated.
I never knew Botox Injections were so simple. Has anyone ever had them before?
