Botulinum Toxin and Cosmetic Fillers

Cosmetic injectables continue to grow in popularity across the country. And for good reason. With Botulinum Toxin and dermal fillers, you can achieve significant aesthetic rejuvenation without the need for surgery. These cosmetic treatments are quick, safer, and deliver optimal results when performed by a skilled expert.

At his practice in Houston, Dr. Linville specializes in cosmetic fillers to restore facial harmony and to slow the signs of aging. He provides a range of injectable filler options, so there is bound to be one that will deliver your goals.

What Are Botulinum Toxin and Fillers?

Though Botulinum Toxin and fillers are slightly different, they are administered in the same way. With only a quick and virtually painless injection, you can achieve significant aesthetic enhancement. Both Botulinum Toxin and dermal fillers aim to treat signs of aging and boost your face’s appearance.

Many patients may still find great results from cosmetic surgery. However, signs of aging around the forehead, eyes, and cheek, can often be reversed non-surgically through a specialized combination tailored to meet your needs. You avoid the risk and inconvenience of surgical procedures while still achieving your aesthetic goals.

Botulinum Toxin

Botulinum Toxin is an excellent way to treat wrinkles. It targets the muscles that create wrinkles, allowing your skin to regain a smoother appearance over time. Though Botulinum Toxin can help almost any area on the face, it is most commonly used for the following concerns:

  • Forehead wrinkles
  • Crow’s feet
  • Frown lines
  • And more

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are a quick and convenient way to ward off signs of aging. Not only is the treatment quick, but you see your results almost immediately. Instead of spending time recovering from surgery, you can return to your daily life right away.

Though dermal fillers can be used to enhance many areas of the face, they are most popular for lip augmentation and restoring lost volume.

Liquid Facelift

Completely non-surgical facelift and a revolutionary new concept, fillers can be used to lift the face and replace lost volume in a completely natural way, without looking fake and without incisions.

Lip Augmentation

Like everything else, the lips lose volume as you age. Proper lip augmentation is all about pairing technique with artistry to achieve perfection. Your lips will look naturally bigger and beautiful but not wider and not “ducky.”

One of the benefits of injectable fillers is that they can be combined with other treatments. They are a common ingredient in treatment plans that deliver complete facial rejuvenation.

Are Injectables Right for Me?

If you want to fight signs of aging, then this treatment could be right for you. Below are a few signs that this treatment could be what you are looking for. Do you want to:

  • Achieve an enhanced shape and form of your lips
  • Reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines
  • Correct loss of volume or improve facial contours
  • Achieve subtle enhancements to your nose (a non-surgical nose job)

More patients are choosing non-surgical treatments for the range of benefits they provide. Surgery requires significant commitment. Not only do you need to spend time away from your daily life, but you must commit to your results for years. With injectables, the process is far less intensive.

Over time, your body naturally breaks down both Botulinum Toxin and fillers. Though this means your results can fade over time, it also allows you more freedom in building your aesthetic. Since your results likely will last a year or under, you can try different options to see what best suits your natural beauty.

The first step in your rejuvenation process is a consultation. During your personal meetings with Dr. Linville, you can get a sense for what treatments will be right for you. After listening to your goals, he can put together a fully tailored treatment plan that will make them a reality.

How Do Botulinum Toxin and Fillers Work?

Injectables can provide powerful help in fighting the signs of aging. But they hardly take any time out of your daily life. Instead of spending hours in surgery and weeks recovering, your treatment can last under half an hour.

Many of our patients come in during a lunch break and are back at work within minutes. Yet the results are powerful and last for months.

Since there is no need for anesthesia, you can even drive yourself home the same day. At most we use a local numbing anesthetic to ensure the injection process is comfortable. During your treatment, we precisely follow your treatment plan in every regard.

Afterward, some patients may notice minor swelling or bruising. But even this fades within about a day for most patients.

How Long Do My Results Last?

Once you have your treatment, you should begin seeing improvements right away. With dermal fillers, the results should be immediately apparent. With Botulinum Toxin , you will notice improvements right away, but your full results can take some time to reveal themselves.

The duration of your results depends on the type and amount of filler you had. Some last for only a couple of months, while others can show results for about a year or more. It also depends on how actively your body breaks down the fillers. For people who only engage in mild physical activity, their results will last longer.

Dr. Linville will provide you with information for how to ensure you see the best results and that they stay with you for as long as possible. Once results begin to fade, all you need is a quick touchup appointment to get back to enjoying your rejuvenated appearance.
