Turn Back the Clock with BOTOX in La Jolla

BOTOX

There are a lot of treatments out there that can help an individual to restore their youthful appearance. One of the most effective on the market today is BOTOX. It can help to smooth out your skin and get rid of dynamic wrinkles. We invite you to learn how you can turn back the clock with BOTOX in the La Jolla.

In order for you to understand why BOTOX can help you turn back the clock, you need to understand why you have wrinkles on your face. Wrinkles are the result of the changes that take place as you get older. For one thing, your skin starts to get thinner because it is no longer producing the same amount of elastin, collagen, and other healthy substances. You also start to lose the facial volume. When your skin is thinner and does not have as much volume, the muscle contractions underneath the skin are telegraphed through. As these muscle contractions take place hundreds of times throughout the day, it has a negative effect on your skin. It causes the skin to fold. All of these things contribute to wrinkles, both static and dynamic.

BOTOX is not a dermal filler. Dermal fillers are designed to help individuals who have wrinkles because of the loss of facial volume. They are directly injected into wrinkles in order to add volume and smooth the skin. BOTOX actually helps to relax the facial muscles. And since the facial muscles cannot contract with the same force as before, the skin is able to smooth out.

When an individual uses BOTOX for the first time, they may feel a little bit of apprehension. One of the reasons why they may feel this way is because they are nervous about not being able to make normal facial expressions. You do not have to worry about this at all. Our expert injectors are able to use just the right amount of BOTOX in just the right muscles in order for you to smooth away your wrinkles but to still make natural facial expressions. You are not going to be left with a face that looks frozen or does not have the ability to smile, frown, or to make other expressive movements.

We invite you to our La Jolla office in order to learn more about BOTOX and to see how it can turn back the clock for you. If you feel frustrated because of the dynamic wrinkles on your face, a couple of injections of BOTOX may be all that is needed to help you love the way you look and restore some of your youth. Please contact Torrey Pines Dermatology today to learn more about this amazing treatment.
