Liquid Facelift – The Fluid Based Forms of Facial Contouring – Botox and Dermal Fillers in Delhi!
Liquid Facelift is the term given to face contouring procedures that are based on 
injecting liquid substances in the skin to plump up the appearance of sagging and droopy face.
These techniques have two major branches:
- Botox
- Dermal Fillers
We are going to talk about both in details, but first, let us find out the reasons to sagging skin, and face getting covered with wrinkles and losing its charm.
There are various reasons that play their chord as the facial skin starts to sag. These could be age, stress, extreme weight loss, medical side effects or hormonal imbalances. When the collagen and elastin present in the skin are lost, skin loses its elasticity and starts deflating like a balloon does when the air inside is lost. Thus, loss of volume makes the skin to crease, fold and get wrinkles; making the face look sad and charmless.
To take care of these issues, medical science offered cosmetic remedies that offer facial rejuvenation with the help of external volume that can be injected in the skin. Some of these substances also help the facial muscles to relax and not contribute to making more lines on the face.
Now let us get familiar with two major techniques that liquid facelift is based upon.
Dermal Fillers
As the name suggests, these are filler substances that are injected in the derma (skin) to make it look more fuller and regain supple form. Most of the FDA approved fillers, such as JUVEDERM®, Radiesse®, Restylane® & Perlane® are made of natural substances produced by body. With their special rejuvenating features, dermal fillers work perfectly to blossom up specific areas of the face. They are the tools to replace lost volume of the face or to stimulate skin cells to produce their own collagen. They lift or contour facial features and help the face to regain natural and younger looking appearance. Dermal fillers can be used for entire face or for specific concern areas such as cheeks, forehead, brow-lines, under-eye bags, jowls, and nose creases.
Dermal Fillers bring these cosmetic results:
- Gentle lift of facial features or specific areas where they are used.
- Wrinkles are reduced, lines and creases fade away to an extent.
- Natural and curved facial shape is restored.
- Face appears rested and energetic.
- Smile looks better, and more refreshing.
Botox
Botox is a potent protein which is used to muscle disorders and is also used as a cosmetic remedy. It is extracted from a neurotoxin called Botulinum toxin and gained huge popularity lately. The reasons that Botox is used as a cosmetic remedy is that it prevents the muscles from contracting and thus stops the formation of wrinkles on face. When injected in a particular area on face in extremely small concentration, Botox prevents the nerve cell signals from reaching the muscles and they stop the contracting action. This makes the wrinkles to relax and soften. Botox has proven itself to be an effective therapeutic protein used for many medical applications.
Botox injections bring these cosmetic results:
- Forehead lines are reduced giving a more friendly look to the face.
- Crow’s feet or lines around the eyes are relaxed, while eyes feel more alive and lit up.
- Lines around the lips and nose are reduced while giving the mouth a fuller look.
A perfect liquid facelift could be a combination of Botox and Dermal Fillers to relax the muscles and to provide an added lift. This combination also helps the endurance of the dermal fillers. Before undergoing any procedure, make sure that you consult an experienced and board-certified doctor who can prescribe the right treatment for your specific need.
