The recent FaceApp craze gave us an insight into what we might look like in the future. But for many women and men too, it made them think about what the future holds and how they can slow down the ageing process. If you are interested in finding different ways that you can stop time in its tracks with long-lasting but non-surgical treatments, anti-wrinkle injections could give you the fresh, smooth and youthful appearance you are after.
Demand For Anti-Aging Products Soaring
Even before the FaceApp trend took hold, the global anti-aging market has never been so big, with experts predicting it will hit $331 billion by 2021. From nail manicures, groomed eyebrows, skincare and cosmetics, women in Australia spend over $3,600 every year on beauty products and treatments. But while we cannot actually stop time, there are things we can do to slow it down.
What Are Beauty Injectables?
Beauty injectables such as cosmetic fillers and Botox have become increasingly popular as a way to effectively treat wrinkles and expression lines. However, some people also choose to have them as a preventative measure to prevent lines and wrinkles forming. Injectable fillers go under the skin fills in deep folders that run from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth. They create fuller lips and can fill out hollow cheeks and eyes. Hyaluronic acid has replaced collagen has the commonly-used filler. Botox is perhaps one of the most well-known of injectables and often linked to many youthful Hollywood faces. Botox relaxes muscles and stops the skin from creasing which causes wrinkles. It’s used to treat expression lines such as frown lines, crow’s feet around the eyes and the lines on the throat.
Always Choose Reputable Practitioner
Having beauty injections is very different to simply going to the store and beauty a jar of beauty serum. It’s crucial that you choose a practitioner who is a qualified medical doctor. Before you commit to having anything injected, you should attend a consultation first where you should receive a treatment plan which outlines what you will be having done and how often you’ll need to return for either check-ups or further treatment. Give yourself plenty of time after your initial consultation to think about whether injectables are right for you. While they may be very effective, they are also a big step so it’s important that you take your time with your decision.
While nothing should replace a healthy lifestyle and a good skincare regime, beauty injectables are becoming more common among women (and men) who want to give their complexion a more in-depth and longer-lasting boost. These could be the answer to helping you grow old gracefully, and you may even start looking forward to your golden years.
