There are so many injectables now, which one is natural and lasts the longest?

While Botox is the most commonly referenced dermal filler for lines and wrinkles on your forehead and other areas, there are many new dermal fillers which are more natural and last longer since Botox typically only lasts up to 4 months. One of these dermal fillers is Restylane. Restylane (hyluronic acid) is an FDA approved form of human collagen used to fill fine lines and wrinkles on the face giving a more plump, younger look, usually around the nose and mouth but also great for crow's feet or forehead. The results usually last up to 6 months, twice as long as botox! Make sure there is a doctor (MD)administering all injections. For example, at Winter Park Laser our Medical Director Jan V. Karlin M.D. is the only one administering injections. For more information go to www.winterparklaser.com
