Artefill, the new Botox

Are Botox days finally coming to an end?

As we are already sued to, new technologies step to the plate everyday and it has been since doctors have been looking for a better and less side-effects solution than Botox injections.

The biggest side back of Botox is that it can not last forever, after a couple of months, wrinkles show up again and so you have to your doctor's office. Damn, that is so much time and money expensive.

Actually, Artefill, also knwon as Artecoll, is not really that new. It was developed in France in 1993, and unlike Botox, it can get rid of wrinkles forever. It is already being used in the States, Canada, Europe, Argentina and Mexico.

At first, Artefill was used as bone implants, dental surgery, contact lenses manufacturing, but form ten years ago it was discovered it could be used to eliminate facial wrinkles.

How come it is not popular at Botox?

The answer is that Artefill presents more risks than Botox treatment. Artefill injections are harder to apply, so there is more likely for failure that on the contrary of Botox, can be forever. That is why Botox is still the big shot and still growing in the cosmetic industry.

Bioplasty, plastic surgery with no cuts

If you have ever watched the cosmetic surgery reality Dr. 90210 you know you will see two kinds of unpleasant images: the deep cuts in the surgery room and the scars and bruises after surgery.

But hopefully, we will get less of that thanks to Bioplasty, a new plastic surgery technique that doesn’t require making any cuts and can be applied on both face and body. Since no cuts are made, small doses of local anesthesia are required you can get back to your life right after the procedure.

This technique is mostly used to get rid of wrinkles and improving facial features. Bioplasty works great for sharpening and turning up the nose, redefining the jaw’s contour, adding more volume to the lips, enhancing or lifting the buttocks, thickening legs and embellishing hands.

Works as a shapeable prosthesis in the way we desire. It is not reabsorbed by the body, it does now move to other parts of the body. It is hypoallergenic. Many parts of the body can be treated in one session.

The most interesting thing about Bioplasty is that it is interactive, which means you stay awake during the procedure and you can look at it in a mirror so you can discuss with the surgeon about what he is doing in your body.

And, this is the coolest part: you can have a surgery test consisting of getting injected a reabsorbable substance that allows you seeing the results beforehand.
