According to recent stats from the ASPS, the use of injectable fillers increased by 6% and botox by 8% between 2007 and 2008.
They are the most popular procedures for plastic surgeons and dermatologists to perform. Hyaluronic acid, most popularly known as Juvederm or Restylane, temporarily smoothes wrinkles by adding volume under the skin, with effects usually lasting for six months. Similary, Botox reduces moderate to severe frown lines between the brows which can last up to 4 months.
To get the best results, always see a qualified expert.
