Botox

Botox in recent years has become one of the most popular aesthetic treatments, particularly for those in their 40s. This is an injection which paralyzes the muscles in your face to stop the formation of wrinkles and can also have a smoothening and softening effect on your face. Botox injections need to be done by a certified doctor and the results take approximately a week to show. Touch ups are generally required every three to six months to maintain the results.

Dermal Fillers

As you hit the 40s. your body’s ability to product collagen and elastin naturally decreases. This is noticeable in the form of sagging skin, reduced elasticity and volume in the face, neck and body.

This is a treatment ideal for those in their 40s who have lost collagen and elastin and notice some sagging. Ultherapy can be used to tighten skin around the jawline, under the eyes, on the forehead, décolleté and even the stomach. Ideal results can be seen in three to six months post treatment with results lasting up to two years.
