When it comes to facial injectables like BOTOX® Cosmetic or dermal fillers, you have options. There are different products on the market that can help smooth wrinkles, plump lips, improve facial symmetry, and more. How do you decide what’s right for you? Consider the following factors when choosing facial injectables.
Consider the Results You Want to Achieve
Think about the areas of your face you’d like to improve. Would you like to soften crow’s feet or forehead lines? Add subtle volume to your lips or cheeks? Pinpointing your goals can help narrow down injectable options.
BOTOX Cosmetic, the popular neurotoxin, is ideal for eliminating dynamic wrinkles from repetitive motions, like frowning or squinting. Dermal fillers like JUVÉDERM® or Restylane® work well for wrinkles at rest, lips, and hollows under the eyes or cheeks.
Being clear on what you hope to accomplish can guide your decision. During your consultation with us, we will set treatment goals and help you determine the right injectables for your desired results.
Consider Costs and Value
Injectables range in price depending on the product used and the number of syringes needed to achieve desired results. Typically, BOTOX costs $10-20 per unit, and fillers run $500-800 per syringe. While the upfront cost is a factor, also consider the long-term value. Opting for a more costly option that requires fewer touch-up appointments over time may balance out the cost of treatment.
We will let you know how much each potential treatment would cost you, and we are always happy to discuss more affordable alternatives when they are available.
Look for an Experienced Injector You Trust
The skill and experience of the person administering your injectables is vital. Board-certified dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and nurse practitioners have deep expertise in facial anatomy and knowledge of how different products work.
An expert can evaluate your face, listen to your goals and make individualized recommendations on which injectables are right for you. Rapport with your injector is also key — you should feel comfortable asking questions and addressing any concerns.
Schedule a Consultation
The best way to learn about products and decide what facial injectables are best is to meet with an injector for a consultation. They can examine your face and help you create a customized treatment plan.
