First a vocabulary lesson!
Did you know that all the different types of wrinkles and fine lines on your skin have names? There are twogeneraltypes of wrinkles:static and dynamic.
dynamic wrinklesthey appear when we use facial expressions to get excited, but they disappear when our faces become neutral again.
static wrinklesInstead, they are permanent marks left by the expressions we make, such as smiling, laughing, frowning, or squinting. Over time, our skin losescollagenand elasticity, causing the skin to loosen and slacken, resulting in more visible static wrinkles. Let's look at some of the different subtypes of wrinkles and lines.
nasolabial folds
These are the lines or indentations that form from the corner of the nose to the corner of the mouth. They are also known as laugh lines or laugh lines because they tend to be more prominent when expressing these emotions.
wrinkles on the forehead
Horizontal forehead wrinkles are some of the most common signs of aging. Surprised expressions when you raise your eyebrows cause these wrinkles to become static over time.
Crow's feet
The fine lines that emerge from the corners of the eyes are known as crow's feet. Smiling, laughing, and squinting cause these lines to form.
lines of concern
Clear lines of concern form between the eyebrows and they look like number eleven. They are called worry lines because when you express your concern, your eyebrows usually come together, causing these lines to appear.
puppet lines
These lines run vertically on either side of the mouth, imitating a doll's mouth (hence the name). The skin around your mouth is thinner, making it even more prone to wrinkles and lines as you age.
barcode lines
These are the fine lines that radiate around the mouth. They often look like little barcodes! They are made by pursing the lips.
Now that you understand the difference between wrinkles, let's see how to treat them!

Injectable dermal fillers in Carmel
As we age, we lose vital proteins such ascollagenjelastic. These are responsible for the elasticity and firmness of our skin. Think of them as a box spring with a collagen frame and elastin springs. They shape our skin and keep it smooth, firm and healthy!
When our bodies naturally reduce production of these proteins, the skin around the skeletal structure begins to sag, creating hollow areas, often around the cheeks and arms. This sagging of the skin, known as sagging skin, is also responsible for worsening wrinkles and fine lines.
Dermal fillers rebuild the structure of your skin to give you a more youthful appearance! Our specialized injectors use a small sterile needle to strategically inject the filler into the subcutaneous skin layers of the face or arms.
Different types of fillers contain different substances. These are the fillers we offer at Turkle & Associates:
Juvederm
This injectable dermal filler in Carmel is made up of a substance called hyaluronic acid, which is another naturally occurring substance. It is extremely moisturizing and has great anti-aging effects.JuvedermIt is considered the gold standard for injectable dermal fillers and there are a few different options for injections, including:
Juvederm XC

Juvederm Voluma XC

Juvederm Volbella XC

RHA
The RHA injectable collection is an elastic hyaluronic acid injectable in Carmel that enables flawless and dynamic results. This series of injectables is perfect for those who want a natural facial expression without visible signs of aging.
radiesse
radiesseIt consists of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA) gel microspheres containing phosphate and calcium ions. Phosphate and calcium occur naturally in the body.
Radiesse is a particularly effective treatment because over time it activates the body's natural collagen growth and CaHa is eventually reabsorbed back into your body without any health risks. The collagen your body naturally produces is left behind, giving your skin a natural plumpness!

BOTOX® vs. fillers
Both BOTOX® and fillers have similar, but not identical goals. BOTOX® is generally more suitable for treating wrinkles and fine lines created by muscle movement. Alternatively, fillers add volume to depressed or sunken areas and strengthen bone structure. Check out our recommendations for what to use.

Injectables FAQs in Carmel
How long does it take before you see results?
You can usually see immediate results after your first filler injections! You can see the results of BOTOX® after a few days. Neurotoxins take time to relax the underlying muscles, resulting in the loose appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Is there downtime associated with injectables?
No! You can continue with what you were doing before your appointment. However, depending on the type of injection and placement, slight bruising or swelling may occur. Medicines that thin the blood can increase the risk of bruising. If you are taking blood thinners, talk to your doctor before injecting Carmel.
Do I need a follow-up appointment?
Neurotoxins usually last 2-4 months. For the best result, we recommend a follow-up appointment every 3 months. With prolonged use, BOTOX® can prevent the formation of wrinkles.
Fillers usually last between 6 months and 2 years, depending on the type of filler and your unique metabolism!
