Ultherapy vs botox, which method will be the perfect choice for your skin after 30 years old? Let’s analyze with Lux in the article below to better understand these 2 methods and choose the method that is suitable for your skin!
1. What is Ultherapy? What is Botox?
1.1 Ultherapy
Ultherapy is a skin rejuvenation technology using SÂ micro-focused ultrasound waves. This is a skin lifting and rejuvenation technology using ultrasound waves to heat the SMAS layer, thereby twisting the collagen fibers in 3D. In addition, Ultherapy will also help stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, helping to support the skin from the inside. And from there, your skin will be more elastic and firm.
Ưu Điểm
- There is an ultrasound screen to clearly see the volume deficit and the level of skin aging to apply the appropriate amount of heat and hand force to each position
- Non-invasive, no downtime, no pain
- Longest lasting time (about 2 years)
Nhược Điểm
- It takes about 2 – 4 months to see noticeable results.
- High cost
1.2 Botox
Botox (Botulinum toxin) là một loại độc tố nhóm botulinum A tương tự độc tố Dysport, Xeomin,… được tiêm vào các nhóm cơ làm tê liệt các nhóm cơ này để xóa bỏ các nếp nhăn động. Trong năm 2017 đã có hơn 7 triệu người Mỹ sử dụng phương pháp tiêm botox.
Advantage
- Can be used on most areas of the face
- Cheap price
- Popular
Disadvantages
- Too many injections will cause resistance to botox.
- Short lasting effect
- Injections into muscle groups will cause temporary sagging (because there is no dissolving injection, it will disappear on its own in about 3 – 6 months)
- Bruising around the injection site
