 Do not fall into this trap in skin filling and botox applications!


Many people apply different care products and medical aesthetic procedures to look well-groomed and young. Referring to these procedures, which are done with concern for beauty and aesthetics, Asst. Prof. Dr. Pelin Ozgunay warned that licensed products should be used and the procedures should be performed by doctors, particularly when getting botox and skin fillers.


When it comes to beauty and care, the first thing that comes to mind is the skin and the procedures done to the skin. The goal here is to look and feel good. Asst. Prof. Dr. Pelin Ozgunay from Istanbul Gelisim University Health Services Vocational School drew attention to the fact that the treatment should be creditable and that those who want to have the application should check the references of the health personnel who will do the application.

UNLICENSED PRODUCTS AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET

Today, especially botox and skin fillers have become a rapidly growing sector that people often prefer. Many people are faced with irreversible problems or need corrective treatment due to the fact that the wrong beauty and aesthetic treatments are performed by incompetent individuals and institutions. Emphasizing that there are people using unlicensed products in the market, Asst. Prof. Dr. Pelin Ozgunay also added, “We hear that complaints about treatments are increasing day by day and that the majority of them are related to lip augmentation treatments. These data continue to demonstrate us that treatments are still provided by non-healthcare professionals.”

SKIN CARE ROUTINE IS SIGNIFICANT

At the beginning of care applications, the procedures for healthy skin are of great importance. Taking good care of the skin and developing a skincare routine helps the skin stay young and healthy for longer. Asst. Prof. Dr. Ozgunay indicated: “The skin has many tasks to perform, from acting as a defense against environmental hazards to regulating temperature. All the functions that the skin performs are designed to help the body function properly. Your skin's primary job is to protect against environmental hazards such as germs and UV radiation. The skin's acid mantle plays a crucial role in preventing bacteria from attacking the skin and causing infections. It should not be forgotten to clean and moisturize the dirt and oil on the skin with make-up removers. ”
