If you develop lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, or other unwelcome signs of aging, rely on Washington OB-GYN & Washington Wellness in San Antonio, Texas. Board-certified providers Jerome Washington, MD, and Valerie Calzada, MSN, RN, FNP-C, offer Botox® and fillers to give you the younger-looking, smoother, revitalized skin you deserve.
Botox and fillers are cosmetic injectables that improve the appearance of aging skin. They offer a variety of benefits, including a reduction in lines and wrinkles, to improve your appearance and help you gain confidence.
Botox injections are from the botulinum toxin that reduces the activity of facial muscles responsible for laugh, frown, and smile lines.
Dermal fillers, including Juvéderm® and others, add volume to sunken areas of your face, thereby reducing the signs of aging and enhancing facial contours.
Some of the many benefits you can experience after receiving Botox and filler injections include:
Receiving cosmetic injections is a fast, simple, painless process that offers dramatic anti-aging results without any downtime.
To find out if you’re a candidate for Botox, fillers, or other cosmetic procedures, your Washington OB-GYN & Washington Wellness specialist discusses your medical history and desired outcome. They examine the areas of your body with aging skin before personalizing a cosmetic treatment that’s right for you.
You relax in a comfortable chair when receiving Botox and filler injections. Your Washington OB-GYN & Washington Wellness provider can numb the treatment area if needed before injecting Botox or a dermal filler beneath your skin at targeted areas. The procedure is fast and virtually painless.
After receiving Botox, fillers, or a combination of these treatments, there’s no downtime, so you can resume a normal routine right away. Avoid touching and rubbing the treatment areas. You may notice some swelling, tenderness, or redness at the injection sites, but these side effects don’t last long.
You should notice the effects of dermal fillers right away, but results from Botox usually appear within a few days. Botox injections often last a few months, while fillers could last 6-18 months or longer before you need repeat treatments.
