Best Kept Anti-Aging Plastic Surgery Tips

We take one good look at someone like Jennifer Aniston, and think “I want that!”. That woman is 50 years old and she looks beautiful and young as ever! It’s important to know the ins and outs of cosmetic surgery, so your money can go towards your exact desired results. With that in mind, i’m here to tell you some of the best kept anti-aging secrets when it comes to plastic surgery:

Botox and filler are not the same thing

There can be a common misconceptions that botox and fillers are the same thing. Although both treatments are minimally invasive, they are very different from one another. Botox helps temporarily paralyze muscles to help correct dynamic wrinkles like expression lines. Botox cannot be used on wrinkles that are caused from sagging. But that is where fillers come into play! Fillers are made with a combination of substances that are used to inject in problematic areas that have static wrinkles. Static wrinkles are caused from sagging or loss of elasticity in the face. The type of treatment you will need depends on the cause of your fine lines.

There’s more than one kind of filler

By talking to our friends and looking up Yelp reviews, it’s easy to choose a filler based on a well reviewed or popular brand. But it’s important to not get caught up on the popular brand names, and focus in more on figuring out the kinds of results you are trying to achieve. There is more than one kind of filler, and to receive the best results you want to choose the best filler for the problematic area. For example, if you are wanting to lift or enhance your cheeks it is recommended to use Restylane. If you are looking to smooth out chin wrinkles, you are recommended to use Radiesse or Juvederm. So, when you are deciding a filler, be sure to research the differences between each one to figure out what’s right for you.

The earlier you get a procedure done, the better

One popular method of gaining a youthful appearance is getting a facelift. If you are contemplating on getting a procedure done like a facelift, it’s better to take action on it sooner than later. Results have shown that individuals who undergo a facelift in their early 40’s experience longer-lasting results and require less revisions later on. This does not mean that you should rush into a facelift without properly consulting your surgeon and making sure this procedure is right for you, it is just something to simply keep in mind.

My tip from me to you would be to write down what results you are looking for and what procedures you are interested in having, and then based off of your list do your proper research while consulting with your surgeon. Doing your research to figure out what procedure is best for you can make all the difference in the results that you get. You want to make sure that your hard-earned money is going towards the right treatment that makes you feel confident and beautiful!
