If you have decided that you want to get injected with some of the new plastic surgery injectable substances instead of getting a major plastic surgery procedure, you should make sure that you know just which injections are the right ones for your face and your needs.

Some of the most impressive plastic surgeons in the world are not using scalpels and knives to do their sculpting, instead, they are using hypodermic needles and injectable substances. This new type of plastic surgery is being completed in offices from Paris to Los Angeles.

Most of the injectable plastic surgery options are aimed at combating age - that is, they are good for either filling wrinkles or reducing their appearance. The most popular of these substances is actually derived from a toxic and deadly poison - botulism. You might know it as Botox.

Botox is usually used to fight wrinkles in patients of any age who feel that they might have a few too many lines around their brow or above their brow line. These lines can be caused by frowning, or just by aging. They can occur at any age, but usually occur after age 40.

Another popular cosmetic plastic surgery injectable is Botox. Derived from the botulism toxin, this injectable has the ability to paralyze facial muscles where it is injected. It is most often injected into the brow line, where it serves to smooth out the muscles of the brow.

The purpose of smoothing brow muscles is to release the wrinkles that develop here - often called frown lines. While Botox is excellent at removing these wrinkles, it is not meant for use on wrinkles in other areas of the face, and will not work on these areas lower on the face.

A final cosmetic injectable is Restylane. This injectable, also known as hyaluronic acid, is a filler - it can be used to fill in wrinkles around the mouth area. These wrinkles are usually known as laugh lines, and it can also be used to fill in small feather lines around the lips.

Injections with Restylane can get rid of "laugh lines" and lines around the lips that may make you look prematurely older - a great way to make yourself look younger without a long recovery time. A few injections with a needle may negate the need for further plastic surgery.

Make sure to consult with a plastic surgeon who has a lot of experience with these injectable substances before getting any of this work done, and research your options before getting an injection. While easier than surgery, there are still risks - so make sure only a doctor performs the procedure.
