You probably wear sunscreen to keep your skin safe, take the time to do your makeup, and regularly work out, but the natural aging process still causes your skin to wrinkle over time. Lines and creases are a result of fully enjoying your life, but they can impact your self-confidence and make you feel like your efforts are ineffective. When your facial wrinkles begin to negatively affect your self-image, it may be time to consider Botox in Sterling Heights.
Your Girlfriend the Plastic Surgeon®, Dr. Danielle DeLuca-Pytell, listens to your goals and helps guide you to the injectable treatment option that is right for you, whether that is surgery or something more minimally invasive at our Med Spa, such as Botox treatments.
In Sterling Heights, you are a good candidate for anti-wrinkle injections if you:
You should understand what Botox is capable of before you begin treatment, as unrealistic expectations could negatively affect your recovery and appreciation for your results. It is also important that you are in generally good health because you want your body to focus on the treatment region rather than expending its efforts to help you recover from some other ailment.
If you are in Sterling Heights and decide to pursue Botox, you can schedule an appointment with our team. This will only take a short amount of time, as once we administer the Botox via tiny needles to the targeted regions of your face, you are free to go home.
There are some steps you can take to prepare for your treatment. You should abstain from anti-inflammatory medication, such as aspirin, for two weeks before your appointment to help reduce bruising. If you want to exercise, you should do that before your treatment, as you will need to rest afterward.
On the day of your appointment, you should wash your face thoroughly and avoid makeup so your face is ready for the injection. Additionally, we will cleanse the region before injection. Taking these steps helps make the entire procedure run smoothly and successfully.
While Botox and other injectables are minimally invasive procedures, you may experience some discomfort afterward, including swelling and bruising. We recommend using an ice pack and avoiding exercise for several hours after your treatment to help minimize these side effects.
Patients in Sterling Heights should understand that the results of anti-wrinkle injections will naturally fade over time. If you are happy with the outcome, you may decide to pursue maintenance injections: repeated injections at regular intervals to keep your wrinkles and fine lines under control.
