What are anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers?

It is very common for people to ask what anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers  Leamington Spa are. These fillers and injections should not be confused with Botox injections, while they may appear to be used in a similar treatment style they are made from a completely different substance.

This substance is sterilised hyaluronic acid, these fillers can be injected under the skin to help the muscles relax and create a look of plumpness in the area. The hope is that this procedure will create natural-looking results that the patient will be happy with, giving them a more youthful appearance to their face.

The main reasons many patients are choosing injectable treatments over traditional cosmetic surgery are clear to see, as these treatments are quick and simple to receive, less invasive, and the recovery time is shorter. Most of the injectable treatments can be administered within ten to fifteen minutes, with a normal recovery time of less than a week.
