The new year is a perfect time to refresh your appearance and leave a tired look behind. If you’re noticing fine lines and facial volume loss, you don’t have to schedule surgery to get natural, youthful-looking results. At Plantation Dermatology, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Steven Barilla leads our expert team in helping patients achieve natural-looking facial rejuvenation using advanced injectables such as Botox® and Juvéderm®. Together, they can provide an incision-free lift.
How Botox Helps Create a Smoother Look
Botox Cosmetic is a neuromodulator that works by relaxing targeted facial muscles that contribute to expression lines. Over time, repeated muscle movement can lead to lines that remain visible even when the face is at rest. Botox helps soften these lines, creating a smoother and more refreshed appearance.
Common treatment areas include the forehead, the glabellar lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet around the eyes. Results typically begin to appear in as little as a day and can last up to four months, making Botox a popular option for maintaining a refreshed look throughout the year.
Restoring Volume With Dermal Fillers
Juvéderm is a collection of hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers designed to restore lost volume and improve facial contours. As collagen production slows with age, areas such as the cheeks, lips, and lower face can appear flatter, hollow, or sunken. Juvéderm replaces that lost volume in a way that looks soft and natural.
Dermal fillers are commonly used to enhance the cheeks, smooth lines around the mouth, soften marionette lines, and add subtle fullness to the lips. Because hyaluronic acid naturally attracts moisture, Juvéderm also supports skin hydration and structure. Results are visible immediately and can last from 6-24 months, depending on the specific product used.
Combining Botox and Juvéderm for a Non-Surgical Lift
When Botox and Juvéderm are used together, they address different signs of aging for a more complete facial refresh. Botox focuses on muscle-related wrinkles, while Juvéderm restores volume and improves facial shape. This combination is often referred to as a non-surgical facelift.
Using both treatments together can help:
- Relax lines caused by repeated facial movement
- Restore youthful fullness to the mid-face
- Improve balance and symmetry across facial features
- Create a refreshed appearance without surgery
Because these treatments are non-surgical, most patients return to normal activities the same day, making them a convenient option for starting the new year looking rested and rejuvenated.
