Why Who Administers Your Injectables Matters

If you’re bothered by your aging completion and want to avoid going “under the knife,” injectables, such as Botox® and fillers, have a lot to offer. However, not all injectables are equally safe and effective, mainly due to who provides your treatment.

The expert team at Park City Dermatology in Park City and Heber City, Utah, offer injectables to help create an appearance you love.

Who administers your treatment matters, whether you’re seeking your first treatment or hoping to improve on previous results — here’s why.

How Botox and fillers work

The administration of Botox and fillers is similar, but they vary in numerous other ways. 

Botox contains botulinum toxin, which temporarily paralyzes muscles in the treatment area. By preventing muscle contractions, it reduces fine lines and wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines, for up to several months. 

Also known as dermal fillers, fillers add volume or plumpness to thin or shallow facial areas. For example, they can plump up your lips and restore lost volume in your cheeks. Depending on the filler, your results may last as long as 12 months.

Why you shouldn’t get injectables from just anyone

The best possible results 

While many offer injectables, not every provider has the qualifications or experience to ensure the best possible results. With the right provider, you can rest easy knowing that your results will likely look natural. 

Our team avoids over-injecting and instead focuses on your desired look. This approach prevents a “frozen” or overly “filled” look to enhance your natural beauty, rather than take away from it. You’re more likely to look like you’ve slept well or aged backward a few years than you “had work done.”

Your safety first

Our trained dermatology experts prioritize your safety first and foremost. If you aren’t a good candidate for injectables, for example, due to an active skin condition or allergy to injectable ingredients, we guide you toward other options.

Qualified injectable providers also have the experience and training to know exactly how and where to inject your Botox and filler. Their expertise provides the best chance of preventing complications, such as filler migration, in which the solution moves out of the treatment area. 

The right provider also lowers the risk of​​ rare but serious complications like blindness. Their thorough knowledge of anatomical anatomy allows them to avoid blood vessels linked to vision and certain areas that seem too risky.
