Despite longstanding popularity for botox, micro needling is fast becoming a leading cosmetic treatment in demand. It is fortunate that the growing trend combines both treatments for smoothing out and improving skin texture, improving wrinkles, treating acne scars and skin conditions, and restoring youthful appearance.

At our medical aesthetics facility, we offer a variety of treatments to help our clients achieve their aesthetic goals. Two of the most popular treatments we offer are Botox and microneedling. In this post, we'll take a closer look at these two minimally invasive cosmetic treatments and how they can benefit you.

Botox is a popular injectable treatment that is used to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. It works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles in the treatment area that cause dynamic wrinkles and exacerbate static facial wrinkles. This decreases the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by muscle contractions and muscle movement. 

Botox is most commonly injected into the forehead, between the eyebrows (frown lines) and around the eyes (crows feet). 

The recommendation for when to start receiving botox treatments varies by individual botox patient. Some botox patients start injections in their 20s to prevent winkles, sometimes called 'baby botox injections.' These patients typically receive lower doses of botulinum toxin or may begin with only a single treatment area, while patients with more skin concerns, fine lines, and facial wrinkles may require additional botox injections or elect multiple treatment areas

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that is used to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, increase skin firmness and elasticity, improve the appearance of acne scarring and other common skin conditions. It works by using a microneedling device which uses tiny needles to create microscopic wounds to create controlled injury to the skin. This injury triggers the release of growth factors that promote wound healing and stimulating production of collagen and elastin, two proteins responsible for skin elasticity and firmness and our target for facial rejuvenation. 

As a result, microneedling can improve the appearance of skin texture, firmness, and reduce wrinkles and acne scars. Microneedling treatment can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions and concerns, including facial lines, wrinkles, acne scarring, stretch marks, brown spots, skin laxity, and hyperpigmentation. 

If you are looking for a minimally-invasive way to improve the appearance of your skin, microneedling may be right for you. Good candidates for microneedling are generally healthy individuals who are looking for facial rejuvenation to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. An ideal candidate presents with no active skin infections in the treatment area or inflammatory skin conditions. 

Both! Botox and microneedling are effective cosmetic treatments that can help you achieve your aesthetic goals for healthy, glowing skin. Microneedling and botox injections are cosmetic treatments serve as excellent combination therapy for to refresh and rejuvenate your appearance. 

Best of all, combining the microneedling procedure and botox treatment with non invasive procedures can promote long-lasting collagen production, improve skin tone and yield overall amazing skin care results.
