The 5 Cosmetic Benefits of Botox

Jan 02, 2023

What is Botox and How Does it Work?

In the past five years, Botox has risen in popularity and has seen an increase of 40% in the number of procedures performed. The benefits of Botox are expansive and can transform your appearance and wellbeing for the better.

 

Botox is now one of the most popular cosmetic treatments that does not require plastic surgery. That’s because it’s nearly unbeatable as a treatment for fine lines, furrows, and wrinkles. The results can be seen soon after the treatment and offer lasting visibility.

 

As Botox becomes more popular, many people want to know the benefits of this cosmetic procedure. Keep reading to learn why Botox has become so popular and why we at Balanced Beauty offer it as one of our top services.


What is Botox?

 Botox is a non-surgical injectable cosmetic treatment that relaxes facial wrinkles. Fine lines and wrinkles are the unfortunate consequences of aging. No matter how well you take care of your skin, you will probably have wrinkles at some point in life. That’s the bad news: the good news is you don’t have to let wrinkles control your life.

 

The benefits of Botox are so complete that millions of people worldwide use this cosmetic treatment to remove wrinkles. Botox is an FDA-approved safe formula that has been on the market since 2002. This treatment was once famous for giving a “frozen” look to the face. In modern times, you never need to worry about having unnatural-looking skin after the treatment. 


How Does Botox Work?

 Botox is different from other wrinkle-reducing treatments in that it is not a dermal filler. When a client comes into our office in Downtown Geneva for a treatment, our licensed professionals make a direct injection of the botulinin toxin directly into the problem area.

 

As a result of this, the muscle beneath the wrinkles and fine lines is temporarily paralyzed. The affected area begins to smooth out and can stay that way for up to four months, disappearing the look of fine lines and wrinkles. These Botox treatments are long-lasting, but clients can return to our Balanced Beauty office for touch-ups as they see fit.


The Benefits of Botox

 When used cosmetically, Botox is an excellent treatment to soften the look of lines, wrinkles, and furrows such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and other lines that appear on the face and neck. Be sure to keep reading to learn even more about the numerous benefits of Botox.


1. Enhances Natural Beauty

 One of the most significant benefits of getting Botox treatments is that it is an easy way to enhance your natural beauty.

 

Botox is used as an anti-aging treatment, as it is an easy way to lessen the appearance of wrinkles. This means that Botox injections can improve anything from severe forehead lines to frown lines and all parts in between. 


2. Non-Invasive and Fast Procedure

Botox injections are an excellent option for cosmetic procedures because they are non-invasive and fast.

 

The entire procedure only takes a few minutes to perform, especially when working with a licensed professional. At Balanced Beauty, our licensed professionals will use a small needle to inject Botox into specific areas of your face. Because Botox is a non-surgical procedure, it means that you will have less downtime with your appointment, and you can get in and out quickly. 


3. Nearly Immediate Results

Many people who want to improve their appearance quickly choose Botox because it provides nearly immediate results. Once you get your Botox injections, you will see results as early as three to four days after your procedure.

 

However, Botox continues to work for about three months after your injections. Typically, you will notice that your wrinkles and lines continually relax until you have your maximum results – it usually takes up to ten days to see your best results. After the injections, you may notice light bleeding, but there is no recovery time necessary. You can simply return to your normal activities right after your injections.


4. Lasting Results

 Something else that makes Botox a great cosmetic treatment option is that it provides long-lasting results. As we mentioned above, you can expect to see maximum results from your procedure within ten days of your injections.

 

In this time, your wrinkles and fine lines will continue to relax and become less visible. While Botox injections eventually wear off, they will typically last around three full months. Clients usually return to our Balanced Beauty office for touch-ups three to four months after their last injection. 


5. Customizable Treatment Options

Finally, getting Botox injections allows you to create customizable treatment options with our Balanced Beauty licensed professionals.

 

When you schedule your consultation at Balanced Beauty, you can discuss the areas of your face that concern you most and determine what spots you want to treat the most.

 

You can also get as many or as few Botox injections as you want. This also means that you can fit your Botox treatments into your monthly budget! By discussing your end goal with our licensed professionals, you can find a treatment course that best fits your needs.

What is Body Contouring and How Can it Help You? Everybody deserves to look and feel their best, but sometimes our bodies don’t cooperate with us. Body Contouring helps to shape specific areas of the body and tighten skin. Even though, Body Contouring does not usually help you lose weight it helps shape the body and address specific areas where weight loss isn’t effective. Body Contouring treatments are the best way to remove the stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. At Balanced Beauty, we are pleased to offer our clients an array of non-surgical body contouring treatments. Whether you’ve lost weight and have loose skin to contend with, or you just want to trim those last few areas down that never seem to look as firm and tight as you want them to, Balanced Beauty’s Physiq Body Contouring in the Finger Lakes can do wonders to your physique. What is Body Contouring? Body Contouring is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to reveal a firm and toned body hidden underneath layers of fat or loose skin. Everyone has a firm physique waiting to be revealed, and sometimes diet and exercise are not enough to reach our aesthetic goals. Body Contouring treatments target those stubborn fat deposits found in the abdomen, thighs, “love handles”, arms, and more that won’t budge no matter what you do. If you’re interested in learning more about Body Contouring, check out our services page here: https://www.balancedbeauty.md/physiq-body-contouring What Options Do You Have? At Balanced Beauty, we offer the best body contouring services in the Finger Lakes region. Physiq Body Contouring offers powerful personal transformation. Physiq Body Contouring offers incredible benefits for those who have tried everything else to get rid of stubborn fat. This treatment does not use needles or any kind of surgery and requires no downtime or recovery. Every treatment provides gradual results that improve over time. Physiq Body Contouring works with the body to remove fat cells in stages, which means your results improve with time – similar to the results given by dieting and exercise. Just this year, Physiq was honored with a coveted Best Innovations Award by NewBeauty.

NewBeauty editors also loved Physiq’s comfortable treatments, the ability to target multiple areas at once, and customizable treatment programs. To learn more, be sure to visit: https://www.cartessaaesthetics.com/physiq-wins-2022-newbeauty-award Why is Body Contouring Used? People choose to have Body Contouring to look and feel thinner or to attain a certain shape. It’s often used on specific areas of the body when diet and exercise aren’t making a difference. Body Contouring can target most areas of the body. Common sites include: - Arms - Back - Belly and flanks (love handles) - Buttocks - Neck and Chin - Thighs What are the Advantages of Body Contouring? Diet and exercise are the pillars of good health. However, many people discover that no matter how strictly they maintain a diet or how regularly they go to the gym, they always seem to develop pockets of body fat in stubborn areas. These pockets are resistant to all their efforts to remove them and can have a negative effect both on your appearance and your motivation to stay with your program. After all, what’s the point of denying yourself your favorite treats when your body gives you love handles no matter what you eat? Many people who have Body Contouring report: - More defined, well-shaped physique - Younger, thinner appearance - Reduced stretch marks, wrinkles, and cellulite - Eliminated fat - A more sculpted figure - Difficult areas toned and trimmed - Loosed, hanging skin tightened and firmed Check out the 4 major benefits of Body Contouring: 1. Targeted Fat Reduction Diet and exercise are a very effective means of allowing you to maintain a low overall body fat percentage. However, it is very difficult to reduce fat in target areas using these methods. There is no machine at the gym which allows you to perform exercises that reduce the fat concentration beneath your chin. The other problem with diet and exercise is that although it is effective at lowering your fat percentage, sometimes your body takes fat from the wrong places. Many women become frustrated when their exercise routine causes a reduction in their curves while leaving their problem areas completely intact. Wouldn’t it be great to take advantage of a fat reduction treatment that only removes fat from the places you selected? With this treatment, you can contour your body exactly into the shape and form that most suits you. 2. The Non-Surgical Answer The best part about Body Contouring is that it’s non-surgical. This means you can remove the fat that you do not want without having to endure any recovery period. We all suffer enough to achieve our beauty, and the elimination of a further surgery to achieve our ends is highly attractive. A non-surgical treatment is easy to perform and safe. 3. Very Effective Clinical testing has proven Body Contouring treatments to be highly effective. They can remove between 20% to 25% percent of the fat from a targeted area. Also, if you have a target date that you want to look your best for, like a wedding or a party, we can create a treatment schedule that will maximize the effectiveness of multiple treatments in the time you have available. There are several options for Body Contouring treatments, but all of them kill the fat cells that they target. These fat cells are then removed by the body’s natural processes. The fat cells that are killed do not return, so you can consider this a permanent form of weight loss. 4. Convenient We understand that the obligations of work and family place tremendous demands on your time. Contouring treatments usually last between thirty minutes and an hour. This means it’s possible for you to schedule an appointment over your lunch break, come in and treat your fat, and then leave the spa with none the wiser. Contouring has become so popular that many of our clients have incorporated regular treatments as part of their normal wellness routine. With as little as one treatment, you can achieve tremendous results. Is Body Contouring Right for Me? Body contouring treatments are the go-to choice for anyone who has stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise. Because these treatments are not a weight loss solution, eligible clients are those at or very near their ideal body weight who already have a healthy routine in place. If this sounds like you, you could benefit from one of these treatments. To find out, schedule a consultation with our professionals at Balanced Beauty. During your consultation, we discuss your body shaping goals and present you with the best treatment options to meet them. If you are ready to reveal the tight body you were born to flaunt, body contouring could be the right option for you.

Cleanse, Exfoliate, Hydrate, and Protect Your Skin. The HydraFacial has become one of the most popular facial trends, and it’s no wonder why. With its gentle non-invasive treatment, no downtime and great results, more and more people are turning to the HydraFacial as their primary functional, integrative facial skincare spa routine. What is a HydraFacial? A HydraFacial is one of the most powerful, non-invasive skin treatments available today. It combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection that removes dead skin cells and impurities, while simultaneously delivering moisturizing serums into the skin. “The HydraFacial is a multistep facial treatment typically performed with a proprietary machine from HydraFacial , manufactured by Edge Systems. In one session, aestheticians can use the HydraFacial device to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and deliver a variety of rejuvenating serums,” explains Dr. Arun Nagpaul of Balanced Beauty. How Does a HydraFacial Work? HydraFacial treatments take 30-60 minutes, depending on what you’re looking to target, and involve three key steps: cleansing, extracting, and hydrating. In the first step, a cleansing serum is used to gently break down dead skin cells while gently opening your pores. In step two, a vacuum-like tool extracts surface-level build-up and impurities from your pores, while simultaneously infusing your skin with a hydrating serum. And in the last and final step, a soothing proprietary antidioyxitive and hydrating serum is applied to your skin to detoxify, rejuvenate, hydrate your skin, and amp up your glow. What are the Benefits of a HydraFacial? A HydraFacial treatment can improve your skin in a ton of ways. Its many benefits include a more hydrated, bright, plump, and clear complexion. Plus, it can also improve signs of aging. "The treatment reduces fine lines and wrinkles, increases firmness, evens tone, texture, and brown spots, as well as reducing enlarged pores," says Dr. Nagpaul. Why Should You Try a HydraFacial? HydraFacials are a gentle yet effective alternative to harsher facial treatments. Here are some of the reasons why you should try a HydraFacial today: Works on all skin types. Whether you have sensitive skin or acne, dry or oily skin, the HydraFacial will work for you. Consistent outcomes. Since much of the treatment is controlled by the HydraFacial technology, you can achieve a consistently high-quality treatment every time. No downtime. Another reason people love the HydraFacial is that there is no downtime. You can even apply makeup that same day if you’d like to—though most people enjoy the glow from the treatment too much to cover it up. Immediate results. Because the treatment is noninvasive, you can see positive results right away. We even recommend it before weddings or events for a luminous, healthy glow. What Can You Expect at Balanced Beauty?
