Frequently Asked Skin Care Questions
What is the difference between medical grade skincare and over the counter skin care products?
The primary difference between medical grade skincare and over-the-counter (OTC) products lies in their formulation, concentration of active ingredients, and the way they are marketed and distributed.
Medical Grade Skincare: These products often contain higher concentrations of active ingredients and typically undergo more rigorous testing and clinical studies. Medical Grade Skin Care products often require a prescription or is sold through licensed dermatologists, estheticians, or specialized skincare clinics.
Is Botox the same thing as filler?
No, Botox and fillers are not the same; they serve different purposes and work in distinct ways:
Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles, particularly dynamic wrinkles (like crow’s feet and frown lines). By preventing muscle contractions, it smooths the overlying skin.
Dermal Fillers add volume and fullness to areas of the face, such as cheeks, lips, and nasolabial folds. Fillers are used to address static wrinkles and restore lost volume.
In summary, Botox is primarily used for reducing muscle activity and smoothing dynamic wrinkles, while fillers are used to add volume and treat static wrinkles. Many people choose to use both for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation approach.
Can I have a laser treatment if I had Botox or filler?
Yes, you can generally have laser treatments after receiving Botox or fillers, but there are some important considerations to keep in mind:
Timing: It’s often recommended to wait at least 2 weeks after Botox injections before undergoing laser treatments. This allows the Botox to settle and take effect properly. For fillers, it’s usually advised to wait at least 1 to 2 weeks as well, depending on the type of filler used.
Does CoolSculpting work for skin tightening?
CoolSculpting is primarily designed for fat reduction through a process called cryolipolysis, where fat cells are frozen and subsequently eliminated by the body. While some patients may notice a slight tightening effect in the skin due to the loss of fat beneath it, CoolSculpting is not specifically intended for skin tightening. For more effective skin tightening, treatments like radiofrequency, ultrasound, or laser therapies are typically recommended. These modalities specifically target collagen production and skin elasticity.
