Patients always want the highest quality cosmetic treatments, but they’re also concerned about value and getting the most “bang for their buck.” If you had a budget of about $250, for instance, what would be the best way to spend it?
Fortunately, there are now many nonsurgical treatment options that help patients get great results in a cost-effective way. BOTOX® Cosmetic and chemical peels are both excellent med spa treatments to find value at my practice in Downers Grove, IL. Read on to learn about these rejuvenating and refreshing treatment options.
BOTOX Cosmetic
Target Areas: This anti-aging treatment is a popular way to reduce wrinkles and create a more relaxed, rested appearance. BOTOX can be used on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and at the corners of the eyes to fade the wrinkles that have formed after years of smiling, frowning, and squinting. Before your treatment, I meet with you for a consultation to discuss the areas you wish to treat, your goals, and the results you can expect.
Treatment: BOTOX is an injectable solution administered using a tiny needle. Most patients say they feel a slight pinch but little discomfort.
Results: You see natural-looking results in a few days, and they last about 4 months.
Chemical Peels
Target Areas: Chemical peels can treat a variety of skin issues, including fine lines, hyperpigmentation, acne, scars, sun spots, age spots, and more.
Treatment: During a chemical peel, a solution is applied to your face that encourages cell turnover in the top layers of skin where many concerns are predominant. A single treatment takes about an hour, and some patients opt for a series of treatments. Although there are many different types of peels, I prefer the Obagi® Blue Peel, which I can customize to meet your precise needs.
Results: The solution continues to work over the course of the next few days, when the top layers peel away and reveal soft, fresh, new skin below. The peel also triggers the development of new collagen in the skin. This collagen is responsible for reducing wrinkles and fine lines, giving you a fresher, more youthful appearance.
Each of these treatments can provide natural-looking results for a more rejuvinated, refreshed appearance, and they all do so in a cost-effective way. I can help you determine which treatment will help you to meet your goals. I invite you to request a consultation so we can find the best solution for you.
