Obtain Thicker, Lusher Lashes With Latisse

/in /by

Are you tired of messing around with clumping mascaras and fake eyelashes? Are you seeking a way to enhance your lashes in a more permanent, long-lasting way? If you are ready to boost your beauty, we encourage you to book a consultation visit with the team at the Plastic Surgery Center of Hattiesburg today to learn about a medication known as Latisse.

What is Latisse and how does it work?

Latisse is a prescription medication that includes a medication called bimatoprost ophthalmic solution at .03%. It is administered onto the upper lashes each night with a sterile lash brush included. While the medication was initially formulated to help patients address glaucoma in eyedrops, professionals found that it could cause patients to improve the thickness and length of their eyelashes as well. This is when the FDA decided to approve the medication for the use of treating thinning eyelashes.

How does it work?

Latisse works by increasing the growing phase of the eyelashes, specifically at the follicular level during the anagen phase. As long as patients continue to use the medication, it can provide stunning results. However, when patients stop using Latisse, their eyelashes will return to their original appearance.

What should I expect?

First, patients should speak to their doctor to determine if they are a good candidate for Latisse. In terms of improving lashes, Latisse is used strictly as a cosmetic treatment. Once patients have decided to move forward with using Latisse, they are given a prescription from the team at the Plastic Surgery Center of Hattiesburg. The prescription is filled at a local pharmacy. Before bed, patients should administer the medication onto the upper eyelash area using a sterile brush. When patients sleep, the medication is naturally administered onto the lower lashes. With continued use, patients will notice thicker, fuller lashes that often don’t even require mascara!

BOTOX

Using nonsurgical approaches such as Botox injections for facial folds and wrinkles

/in /by

At Plastic Surgery Center of Hattiesburg, we offer a wide selection of surgical solutions for cosmetic enhancement of the face and body. However, not everyone’s situation may warrant surgical intervention. At our practice, Drs. William Reno III and Paul Talbot may encourage men and women to think about nonsurgical solutions to aging skin including Botox injections.

Understanding Botox

Our doctors describe Botox as a neuromodulator. This is an injection formulated with botulinum toxin type A. When Botox is injected into muscles, it can reduce their contractions and relax them for many months at a time. In doing so, patients can reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and folds that develop from muscle contractions in the face. Botox is often used to treat:

  • Crow’s feet
  • Glabellar lines
  • Forehead folds

These are areas on the upper third of the face that are impacted by muscle tightening and can cause formation of wrinkles and folds. By injecting Botox into the muscles around these areas, patients can turn back time for several months before reinjection is required to maintain the results.

Is Botox safe?

Botox has been a household name for many years. It is approved by the FDA not only for cosmetic enhancement, but for other medical conditions including cervical dystonia, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), chronic migraines, and overactive bladder. This versatile neuromodulator is highly desirable in both the medical and cosmetic field, and continues to be used today because it works! When patients have their Botox injections administered by the team at the Plastic Surgery Center of Hattiesburg, they can rest easy knowing they are in good hands.

Does Botox eliminate the need for facial plastic surgery?

Patients with mild to moderate formation of fine lines and wrinkles caused by dynamic muscle tension may be able to delay the need for a browlift or facelift for several years. More severe skin laxity and wrinkle formation may still require surgical intervention in some cases.
