Botox, Fillers, Peels and Lasers Q&A
What are dermal fillers?
Dermal fillers are gel-like substances, typically hyaluronic acid, that are injected into the skin to plump up the skin and restore lost volume. As you age, your body produces less of the collagen and elastin that keep your skin looking young and supple. Over time, your skin may begin to wrinkle, sag, and lose its youthful vitality.
If you’re struggling with fine lines, wrinkles, and saggy skin, dermal fillers can restore your lost volume and give you the smooth skin you’ve always wanted.
Which areas do dermal fillers treat?
Though Botox® targets dynamic wrinkles — wrinkles caused by muscle movement — dermal fillers help restore volume in static wrinkles — those caused by collagen and fat loss. The team at Park Plaza Dermatology often uses fillers to:
- Plump up sunken cheeks or temples
- Improve facial symmetry
- Smooth out creases
- Plump lips
- Soften lip lines
- Minimize chin crease
- Reduce lines around the mouth and nose
- Dermal fillers even help smooth out deep acne scars, giving you a more even skin texture.
What is Botox?
Botox is an injection made of botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that helps paralyze facial muscles to reduce:
- Crow’s feet
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines
- Lines near your mouth
- Chin dimples
- Smile lines
Your aesthetic specialist may use multiple Botox injections to help you achieve the best outcome. Periodic maintenance treatments every three to six months help you maintain long-lasting results.
What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is an aesthetic treatment that exfoliates and removes the surface layers of your skin to reveal the new, youthful layers underneath. Park Plaza Dermatology offers two main types of chemical peels:
Glycolic acid peel
Glycolic acid peels are ideal if you want to brighten your skin and minimize the appearance of hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and scars, with a gentle exfoliating treatment.
Salicylic acid peel
If you struggle with oily, dehydrated, or blemish-prone skin, a salicylic acid peel may be right for you.
Which skin problems do chemical peels treat?
Chemical peels brighten dull skin and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles by gently removing the surface layers of the skin. Some important skin conditions and concerns that they treat include:
- Acne
- Acne scars
- Hyperpigmentation
- Age spots
- Sun damage
- Scars
- Uneven skin tone
- Melasma (dark spots)
When these nonsurgical treatments are combined, dermal fillers and chemical peels can take years off your skin’s tone and texture. Because they’re minimally invasive, you can leave Park Plaza Dermatology with a fresh face that requires no downtime.
