Every Costa Mesa person experiences changes to the skin, especially the thinner skin of the face, as he or she age. The skin and the underlying tissues become thinner, and the muscles of the face appear closer to the skin, creating fine lines and wrinkles. Costa Mesa Botox and Fillers may be the answer for patients who struggle with these problems. While they are not permanent solutions, they create a temporary solution to eliminate crow’s feet, forehead furrows, laugh and frown lines around the mouth and nose and other fine lines and wrinkles.

Costa Mesa Botox and Fillers are two very different solutions that are used separately depending on what goals a patient wants to accomplish. Dr. Tavoussi will be able to make an individualized recommendation after meeting a patient and evaluating the patient’s face at an initial consultation.
Costa Mesa Botox Treatment
Botox is actually a bacterium known scientifically at Clostridium Botulinum that has been purified and is safe to use on humans. It has been verified for use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. It is commonly used in the forehead and around the eyes, but it may also be used around the mouth to eliminate frown lines as well as in the neck. Costa Mesa Botox works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles to cause them to stop contracting. The minute contractions of the facial muscles are what cause wrinkles and furrows. A Botox procedure only takes 10 minutes and can be done at our OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique in Newport Beach.
Costa Mesa Fillers Procedure
Costa Mesa Fillers, on the other hand, include Restylane and Juvaderm, which we use on Orange County patients who come to our office. Fillers are injected beneath the skin to add plumpness back into the underlying tissues. While they are used to reduce wrinkles, they can also add plumpness to facial creases and add contours to areas of the cheeks that have begun sagging.
Candidates For Costa Mesa Botox and Filler Cosmetic Procedures
The best candidates for Costa Mesa Botox or Fillers are those who are healthy and who do not smoke. In addition, patients should have a positive outlook on the effects of these treatments and should have realistic goals for how long they will last. Dr. Tavoussi will need to perform Costa Mesa Botox treatments every four months and fillers every six or so months. Finally, patients should realize that the solutions provided by Costa Mesa Botox and fillers are not as dramatic or long-lasting as the results of a facelift are.
