How to Make Botox Last Longer

In addition to sunscreen, using a medical grade hydrating face cream can also help care for your skin and keep it looking refreshed and renewed. Of course, hydration starts from the inside out. When we drink more water, it hydrates our bodies at the cellular level. Over time, our bodies and skin can look and feel better by drinking more water.

Instead of waiting until the effects of your Botox wear off, make regular maintenance appointments at Just Aesthetic Nursing. Our team of aesthetic nurses can recommend how frequently you should come in. By scheduling maintenance appointments you are sure to keep the youthful appearance you’re looking for.

Are you sacrificing sleep and valuable downtime to catch up with friends and work? You could be compromising the effects of your Botox treatments and the overall appearance of your skin. Just like our muscles and brain need sleep, so does our skin. Our skin’s blood flow increases during our sleep cycle and rebuilds its collagen stores. Without enough sleep, our skin may suffer. Add more rest and relaxation to your schedule. Your body, mind, and skin will thank you for it.

Stress directly increases the signs of aging and loss of skin elasticity. Too much stress can also create stubborn bags under your eyes and uneven pigmentation, making you look older than you really are. Stress can also lessen the effects of your Botox and compromise the results of your investment. Try a relaxing facial at Just Aesthetic Nursing to destress!

If you enjoy a cigarette or two a day it may be time to try a new vice. Research shows that nicotine and smoking contribute to the appearance of wrinkles and premature aging. Blood vessels begin to narrow due to nicotine use and will reduce oxygen flow and nutrients to your skin cells. If you want to figure out how to make your Botox last, start with skipping the nicotine to protect the health of your skin. Behind the sun, smoking is one of the top collagen destroyers.

You probably know that consuming a nutrient-rich diet is good for your overall health, but it also impacts the appearance of your skin. Adding more fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats is connected with fewer wrinkles and dryness. Your body will feel better, and your skin will take on a healthier glow with a reduction in the appearance of fine lines.
