Refresh Your Look Before Valentine’s Day: The Power of Modern Injectables

What are your Valentine’s Day plans? Maybe you’ve got a dinner reservation somewhere special, or you’re working on a gift that will wow your loved one. Whatever you’ve got in the works, you’re probably trying to show your special someone that you care. 

Looking your best for them does just that. And this Valentine’s Day, you can go beyond putting on a nice outfit or fixing your hair the way they like. With injectables, you get a way to defy the effects of aging. 

That’s why Jean Johnson, MD, offers injectables to her patients at Rejuvenation For Her in Weston, Florida. With quick, highly effective treatment, she can help you move toward your cosmetic goals. If you want to refresh your look before Valentine’s Day, don’t hesitate to schedule your injectables consultation with Dr. Johnson.

How injectables provide a refresh

At our office, Dr. Johnson offers two types of injectables. They work differently, and understanding what each can accomplish helps you decide what’s right for you. 

Botox®

This cosmetic injectable targets dynamic wrinkles. These are the wrinkles you get because of repeated facial movements, like:

• Forehead lines
• Frown lines (between your eyebrows)
• Crow’s feet

Botox works by temporarily freezing the muscle underneath the wrinkle. This allows the skin above to relax. You should notice the results within a few days. 

Platelet-rich plasma 

Dr. Johnson uses this injectable to rejuvenate your skin. A recent study found it was effective for:

• Boosting collagen density
• Improving skin texture 
• Minimizing the appearance of wrinkles
• Reducing pigmented spots (including age spots)
• Shrinking pores 

That first benefit is worth digging into. Collagen is the protein that serves as the scaffolding for your skin. Your body produces less of it through the years. By helping your skin make more collagen, PRP supports younger-looking, less saggy skin. 

Dr. Johnson makes PRP from a tiny sample of your own blood. That blood contains platelets, which are rich in growth factors. Those growth factors stimulate the rejuvenation in your skin. 

Most people notice some immediate effects of PRP, with results that continue improving over the coming weeks. 

Personalizing your Valentine’s Day refresh

If you want to look your best this Valentine’s Day, come see Dr. Johnson. Telling her your cosmetic goals allows her to personalize an injectable program for you. She might recommend Botox, PRP, or both, depending on what you hope to accomplish.

No matter which injectable(s) you choose, treatment is quick and comes with minimal downtime. Once you and Dr. Johnson agree on a plan, the actual injections take just minutes. 

You might have some redness, bruising, or swelling at the injection sites, but that should fade over a couple of days.
