Itchy, Irritated Skin? Find Relief That Works

I suffer from dry, itchy skin that keeps me from going outdoors. No matter what I use or apply on my skin, my symptoms won't go away and seem to get worse whenever I go out in the sun. One day, I talked to my regular doctor about my skin condition. The doctor referred me to a dermatologist for treatment. It was a big relief to find someone who can really help. The dermatologist examined my skin and asked me questions about my diet, lifestyle and habits. I actually caused my skin problems by what I do each day. After making big changes in my life and getting the right skin treatment, I now live a full life. If you need help for your skin condition that really works, read my blog. You'll find information about skin conditions and their treatments, as well as where to go for help.

Botox and Cosmetic Injections: Do They Complement Your Other Cosmetic Procedures?

by Andy Hopkins

If you're thinking about getting Botox or another cosmetic injection in your face or another area of your body and you take advantage of other cosmetic procedures as well, it's wise to consider what benefits getting cosmetic injections can give you if you have other work done. This guide will help you understand if Botox and other injected cosmetic products can complement your other efforts to keep your skin healthy and young.

It depends on what cosmetic work you have done

If you have had a facelift, then you likely don't need any cosmetic injections or fillers on your face. However, if you have had a facelift but your neck or hands could use a little work, then getting Botox or other injections where your other cosmetic efforts haven't benefited you yet can be helpful.

You don't want to overdo it will fillers and muscle-freezing products because doing so can make your face appear stiff and unnatural. Your cosmetic surgeon will let you know if injectables are the right complement to your other work or not.

It depends on what results you want to have

Getting minor work done on your face and other areas of your body can lead to you needing to get some minor Botox to help you feel like you have tighter, smoother skin around your eyes and nose or lips. If you want to have results that won't appear too harsh along with getting facials or laser treatments, then adding Botox and other treatments to your regime can have many benefits and will help you keep your results longer.

It depends on what upkeep you want

Sometimes getting facial work done is ideal because it's not something you have to repeat for several years or as your skin changes with age. Botox and other cosmetic injections, however, have to be reapplied every so often to give you the constant results you want. The upkeep can be more than you want to handle, although this does allow you to have more control over how your skin looks over time than just relying on more permanent results alone. Your cosmetic surgeon can help you determine if this is the best option for you if you don't want high-maintenance skincare.

Botox and other facial and cosmetic injections are usually charged per amount or vial. Your cosmetic surgeon will explain the pros and cons of these procedures to you to help you determine which ones are best for you.
