Patient 4
Facial Aesthetic Prevention
Prevention in facial aesthetics involves a deeper anatomical perspective that is more adapted to the passage of time. It is essential, and sometimes challenging, to avoid focusing on a single detail and instead observe the face and neck as a whole. Thorough discussions and mutual understanding are also crucial phases for comprehensive care, aiming to achieve the most natural result possible.
The prevention strategy implemented with this patient over the years includes:
- Relaxing certain muscles with botulinum toxin, especially the masticatory muscles and certain depressor muscles of the face and neck.
- Supporting areas of weakness such as dark circles and areas of skin fragility like the nasolabial folds.
- Applying sunscreen daily.
- Avoiding intervention on areas of strength, such as well-defined cheekbones.
