Botulinum toxin-A and filler
Over the years the skin loses elasticity and wrinkles slowly develop, which may result in a significantly older appearance of the face. They can be found predominantly on the forehead, between the eyebrows and around eyes (crow's feet) and are caused by constant contraction of the facial muscles.
The facial wrinkles can be smoothened. They produce a temporary relaxation of the selected muscles, which caused the wrinkles and are natural substances, which have been applied in medicine for years.
Additionally bothersome aspects are increasingly deeper dimples such as deep nasolabial folds, dimples around the mouth and on the chin. Deep dimples can be filled up with fillers such as hyaluronic acid.
Hyaluronic acid is a natural product, which is slowly metabolized by the body. The effect slowly decreases after about 4-6 months, therefore repeated treatment may become necessary.
