3 Things To Visit A Cosmetic Dermatologist For

Posted on: 16 January 2020

It used to be that you would only go to a dermatologist if you thought you had a cancerous mole or if you had severe acne. However, since the cosmetic skin industry has taken over, more and more people are going to see dermatologists for more than just skin checks. Rather than going to someone for Botox or laser who doesn't know much about your skin, why not go to an expert? Because your dermatologist has so much expertise and training with the skin it makes sense for you to see them for all of your cosmetic needs including the following. 

Botox

Botox is the most popular injectable on the market because patients see real results and it is fairly affordable. Botox is unique because it's a neurotoxin and so it works on another level. By injecting it into your facial muscles, Botox works to relax your muscles so you can't make any movements with them. For instance, if it's injected on your forehead, you won't be able to make facial movements with your forehead. This is great because it, in turn, minimizes your skin's appearance of fine lines and wrinkles since you can't make movements which can help patients look younger in just a couple of days. Your dermatologist will be able to give you Botox injections in all of the right facial muscles to help you get the most out of each treatment. 

Facial Fillers

Facial fillers are another thing that you can talk to your dermatologist about. When fillers are injected by someone who doesn't have training, it can make you look like you've had too much work done. However, if fillers are injected by someone with training and experience, they can help accentuate your beauty and make you look younger. The unique thing about fillers is that they can be used almost everywhere on your face including around your eyes, in your cheeks, in your lips, and anywhere else where you may have wrinkles.

Laser Treatment

Laser treatment is another thing that a lot of patients seek from a dermatologist who specializes in cosmetic treatments. Laser treatment can be used for a variety of things including hyperpigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, loss of volume, acne scars, sun spots, and other types of damage. When you work with a dermatologist, they can create a unique plan which includes a combination of laser and some topical creams to help you get the best results possible.

When it comes to your skin, make sure that you stick with the experts if you want to get the best results. To learn more, reach out to a dermatologist near you.
