You know, the version of yourself that\u2019s confident, energized, and ready for anything. If you\u2019re like most adults, the answer is a big no. That good old Texas sun, daily stress, and simple aging take a real toll on the facial tissue. <\/span>Dr. Koo<\/span><\/a> at Piney Point Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery can quickly rejuvenate your appearance with cosmetic facial treatments. Botox injections and dermal fillers are two popular options for refreshing your skin — but they\u2019re not the only ones.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Cosmetic Facial Treatments Just In Time for the Holidays<\/span><\/h2>\r\nWith a variety of trusted, effective procedures, Dr. Koo can fix just about any cosmetic imperfection on your facial tissue. Unsightly mole? Acne scarring? Cheeks that look too full? Or maybe you just want to look younger and more refreshed — like you\u2019ve just woken up from the best sleep of your life. It\u2019s possible with Botox or dermal fillers. <\/span>\r\n

What Is Botox? Who Is It For?<\/span><\/h3>\r\nBotox is a safe, concentrated neurotoxin that is injected just below the surface of crow\u2019s feet and smile or frown lines. Once here, it paralyzes the muscles that cause the contraction and the resulting wrinkles. <\/span>\r\n\r\nBotox requires no anesthesia and is completed in just five or so minutes. It\u2019s so efficient, in fact, that many patients come in for a quick treatment before work or on their lunchbreak. <\/span>\r\n\r\nWhen is a good time to start Botox? Many people think it\u2019s for middle age or later — but the real answer may surprise you. When you don\u2019t wait for serious lines to develop before beginning Botox, it\u2019s possible to actually prevent wrinkles from forming by paralyzing the muscles that cause them in the first place. The mid-30s may be a good time to begin thinking about Botox treatments. <\/span>\r\n

What Are Dermal Fillers? How Are They Different From Botox?<\/span><\/h3>\r\nDermal fillers smooth lines and erase wrinkles by plumping the facial tissue underneath. Unlike Botox, they do not freeze the muscles that cause contractions. Instead, they rejuvenate the skin by simply adding to the tissue — making your face appear fuller and more vibrant. <\/span>\r\n\r\nAt Piney Point OMS, Dr. Koo offers several types of dermal fillers. They all perform basically the same function, but some may be best used in specific areas of the face. Bellafill, however, does not absorb into the tissue like other fillers. Instead, it is permanently inserted into the facial tissue. <\/span>\r\n

Benefits of Facial Rejuvenation<\/span><\/h3>\r\nWe know enhancing your appearance with facial rejuvenation is something you\u2019ve probably been considering for a while. So what are you waiting for? Consider the following benefits of these cosmetic treatments — they are just a few. Which one would enjoy most? <\/span>\r\n
