Botox

Natural aging and a lifetime of involuntary facial muscle movements contribute to the formation of wrinkles, creases and lines that can make you look angry, tired or older than you feel. Although aging may be inevitable, Laredo Wellness & Aesthetics offers, non-surgical treatments that combat the most noticeable and frustrating facial imperfections.

BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT  is designed to soften wrinkles caused by continual frowning, squinting and furrowing of the brows. Your facial muscles move when you make certain expressions and over time, this muscle movement creates wrinkles where the skin folds together. BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT works by blocking signals from the nerves to the muscles. When the injected muscle is unable to contract, wrinkles relax and soften.  BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT is also FDA-approved for the treatment of severe underarm sweating. This is an attractive option in a warm climate like ours.

Targeted injections of  BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT into facial tissue can temporarily interrupt the nerve signals to nearby muscles. By diminishing muscle activity, BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT can correct fine lines and deep-set wrinkles. With this amazingly effective and diverse treatment option, offered at Laredo Wellness & Aesthetics, BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT  Cosmetic can help temporarily erase and eliminate:

Forehead wrinkles
Frown lines

In most cases, the results of BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT  injections will last up to three to four months. Every patient is different, however, the accurate length of time your results will last depends on certain factors:
Amount of BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT used: Generally, the more units of BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT that are injected into a region, the longer the results will last.
‍Muscle strength: If you have very strong facial muscles in a certain area, they may be more resistant to the paralyzing function of the treatment. As a result, more BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT  may be required to achieve the same duration of results.
‍Follow up treatment: With follow-up BOTOX | XEOMIN | DYSPORT injection treatments at Laredo Wellness & Aesthetics, it is possible for your results to last longer than the average three to four months. Some patients can enjoy results for up to six to eight months with consistent follow-up appointments.

Laredo Wellness & Aesthetics is proud to offer dermal fillers. As we age, the thin skin of the face loses elasticity and slows in cellular turnover. In addition, a lifetime of expressions including laughing, smiling, squinting and frowning can leave profound creases and fine lines. With aging and harsh environmental factors, we naturally lose the fullness and plumpness of our youth, leaving less volume in the face and lips. Treatment with dermal fillers enables patients to address and correct the following cosmetic problems related to aging and facial volume loss, including, but not limited to:

Vertical Lip Lines
Thin Lips
Lost Facial Volume
Laugh Lines
‍

Dermal fillers recondition lost skin volume, diminishing the appearance of creases and fine lines. By restoring volume and reducing fine lines, the face looks youthful and refreshed. These injectable fillers allow you to reduce fine lines and restore lost facial volume without altering your ability to achieve natural facial expressions.

Potential temporary side effects of injectable fillers include tenderness, swelling, redness, firmness, bruising, and bumps at the injection sites. These symptoms are generally mild to moderate in nature and resolve within 7 days.  Following your dermal filler injections, you will be able to observe an immediate improvement in the volume and overall appearance of your skin in the treated areas. Although dermal fillers offer long-lasting results after just one treatment, each patient metabolizes these fillers differently, and periodic maintenance treatments may be necessary to preserve and maintain optimal results.
