The safety of injection wrinkle removal is the primary consideration

As we age, wrinkles on our faces are a very annoying thing. Now many people choose to use anti-wrinkle injections to solve these problems. There are many methods of wrinkle removal by injection, and you should choose the method that suits you to achieve better results.

Comparison of anti-wrinkle injection methods

1. Autologous fat injection for wrinkle removal

Autologous fat wrinkle removal is a process in which fat from other parts of the body is sucked out through negative pressure to obtain fat particles, which are then transferred to skin wrinkles or grooves after rinsing, filtering and other processes to fill in wrinkles. Autologous fat transplantation is mainly used to fill the chest, temple depression, eye socket depression, etc., to make them swell and plump to achieve the purpose of beauty. Autologous fat is mostly taken from the patient's own body parts with relatively more fat, such as the abdomen, buttocks and thighs. The sucked fat particles are filtered to remove blood, fibrous tissue and debris, and then gradually injected into wrinkles and depressions with a syringe to make them swell and reduce wrinkles.

This type of injectable material has the highest safety factor of all materials, and there is no rejection, allergic reaction, etc. However, since liposuction surgery is required when obtaining the material, it is easily absorbed after injection. Even if the operation is carried out in strict accordance with the correct procedures and the squeezing of fat particles during injection is reduced to a minimum, the survival rate is only about 70%. For some injection surgeries that require a large amount of fat, in order to achieve a popular effect, the injection must be performed some time after the operation.

Autologous fat injection wrinkle removal is very suitable for women with localized fat accumulation. However, cosmetic surgery itself carries certain risks, and safety is the primary consideration. In addition, the body's tissue can be filled into other parts of the body without rejection, which makes it superior to any other foreign fillers.

2. Botulinum toxin injection for wrinkle removal

The full name of botulinum toxin is botulinum toxin. Clostridium botulinum is a deadly bacterium that secretes toxins during its reproduction process. Botulinum toxin is one of the most toxic proteins and is often used as a biological weapon in military warfare. When people ingest or inhale this toxin, they will develop a series of neurological symptoms, such as dizziness, difficulty breathing and muscle weakness.

Botulinum toxin wrinkle removal causes local temporary symptoms similar to "facial nerve paralysis". The wrinkle removal effect is temporary and generally lasts about 6 months. If the patient requests, the injection can be repeated after 6 months. Furthermore, this type of injection wrinkle removal has its limitations. It is only used to remove forehead wrinkles, frown lines and some crow's feet, and is not suitable for everyone. Using this method to remove wrinkles may aggravate drooping eyebrows, worsen the appearance of aging, and even cause ptosis of the upper eyelid. In addition, patients with myasthenia gravis, neuromuscular diseases, allergic constitution, pregnancy and lactation, a history of drinking within a week, or taking aspirin or other antipyretic and analgesic drugs within two weeks are not suitable for botulinum toxin injections to remove wrinkles.
