Aristocrat Plastic Surgery created a brief infographic on five things you need to know about Cosmetic Injectables prior to getting them.
- Cosmetic injectables are minimally invasive aesthetic medicine that are used to add volume, alter the contours of your face, and fill in wrinkles.
- Common areas for injections are the face, neck, and hands to achieve a fuller, smoother, and more youthful appearance.
- Results are immediate, there are few risks, and no recovery time is needed which attributes to their popularity.
- Collagen-based, hyaluronic acid-based, and calcium hydroxylapatite are the most popular dermal fillers and are all temporary.
- Semi-permanent and permanent injectables exist and are made of poly-L-lactic acid and polymethylmethacrylate.
