Advanced technology has allowed cosmetic surgeons to begin offering non-surgical facelift procedures to their patients. At Plastic surgeon Dr. David Broadway’s Denver, Colorado plastic surgery clinic, you can receive a non-surgical facelift during which Dr. Broadway will employ the use of dermal fillers in combination with Botox.

Advantages of a non-surgical facelift

• Costs much less than traditional facelift surgery
• There is a shorter recovery period.
• Risks of complication and post-operative infections is lower

Dermal fillers

As we age, our skin begins to sag and wrinkles appear. The cause for this is the breakdown of underlying collagen and fatty tissue. These signs of aging may be the result of one or more factors:

• Muscle laxity
• Heredity
• Sun damage
• Gravity

Injecting dermal fillers provides a way to fill out the skin which makes it firmer and aids in smoothing frown lines, wrinkles and crow’s feet. They can also be used to fill out hollow cheeks, reduce acne scars, reshape chins and noses and plump the lips.

Side effects of dermal fillers are minimal and disappear within a few days.

• Itching
• Redness
• Tenderness
• Minor Swelling

Botox injections

Botox injections are placed into the muscle tissues around the areas on your face that are to be treated for the signs of aging. This cosmetic injection blocks tissue nerve impulses which relaxes the muscles that are causing wrinkles.

Side effects of Botox injections are very mild and well tolerated by most patients.

• Temporary tingling
• Minor bruising
• Minor swelling
• Numbness

Combining dermal fillers with Botox injections allows your surgeon to relax the muscles that are causing your signs of age and fill the areas where the lines and wrinkles have appeared to restore a more youthful and smooth complexion. The results of this non-surgical procedure can last from a few months up to a year. It is a relatively pain free and easy way to treat patients who wish to regain a younger, more vibrant appearance.

Most people who are of general good health and who are seeking an alternative to invasive surgery procedures are eligible for dermal filler and Botox injections. It is wise to refrain from taking any antibiotics, aspirin or anti-inflammatory medications while receiving these injections as they may cause increased bruising.

Dr. Broadway also offers anti-aging packages and complimentary skin care rejuvenation analysis to his patients who are seeking a combination of treatments for skin revitalizing.
