New Year’s Resolutions? 5 Cosmetic Treatments to Consider for 2018

Every year, it seems everyone makes the same New Year’s resolutions: lose weight, get organized, generally improve your life. But what if a New Year’s resolution wasn’t something you  felt compelled to break? What if it was something you could easily achieve instead? If you’re the right candidate, a variety of cosmetic treatments can help you start the year off right. Learn more about cosmetic treatments that can help you achieve a variety of goals in the coming year.

Resolve to Nip Aging in the Bud with Preventative Injections

Everyone ages differently. Some people develop lines and wrinkles while still in their early 20’s. Others look the same as they did in high school well into their 30’s. If you’re beginning to notice certain signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, resolve to nip those in the bud ASAP.

One option is to start exploring your injection choices, from Botox to fillers. Whether fillers or Botox is right for you depends on the type of lines you’re trying to fight. Often, dynamic wrinkles, which form thanks to repeated facial movements, are the first to appear. Botox injections temporarily block nerve signals to the underlying muscles to help ease your expressions and keep you looking more youthful for longer.

Resolve to Banish Chin Fat with Kybella

For years, no one knew what to do about the fatty deposits that cause a double chin. Sure, there were gimmicky products sold on late-night TV that promised to get rid of chin fat, but usually did nothing of the sort.

Then Kybella, an injection that literally dissolves chin fat, came on the scene. The treatment involves a series of up to 50 tiny injections repeated monthly for up to six months. At the end of it, the fat under the chin should be gone, leaving you with a taut and toned neck and chin area.

Kybella is a relatively new treatment, meaning you might not have had time to really think about it. Why not make 2018 the year you say goodbye to a double chin, thanks to Kybella?

Resolve to Reach Your Weight Loss Goals with Liposuction

One of the most popular New Year’s resolutions is to lose weight. While liposuction, or surgical fat removal, won’t have you drop the pounds if you’re overweight or obese, it can be the treatment that puts the finishing touch on your weight loss process. Liposuction is meant to get rid of stubborn fatty deposits that hang around even after you’ve reached your goal weight. Think saddle bags and love handles.

Whether you’ve lost all the weight already or are on track to meet your goal soon, liposuction can be the treatment that waits for you at the end and helps you finally cross the finish line.

Resolve to Get Your Pre-Baby Body Back with a Mommy Makeover

You love your kids, but you may not be super thrilled with what pregnancy and childbirth have done to your body. If diet and exercise haven’t been enough to help you get back to your pre-pregnancy shape, a mommy makeover might be just the thing.

One of the great things about a mommy makeover is that it’s fully customizable, allowing you to reach your goals or achieve your resolutions, no matter what they are. For example, if you’re hoping to get a flatter stomach, your mommy makeover can include a tummy tuck and liposuction. If you’ve also experienced changes in the breasts, your procedure can include breast augmentation to restore lost volume or a breast lift to make them perkier.

Resolve to Reverse Sun Damage with Laser Treatments

Resolving to wear sunscreen is a common New Year’s resolution. But what can you do about skin that’s already showing significant signs of sun damage, such as wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, and uneven texture? Laser treatments can help to eliminate signs of sun damage, giving you a clean slate. Plus, sun protection is a must after laser skin treatments, so you have even more of a reason to protect your skin from the sun’s UV rays.
