For long term improvements in the appearance of aging, Evolence offers immediate results that can last up to 12 months. Collagen, a natural skin protein, provides the foundation for strong skin with optimal elasticity. As you age, collagen production slows, and this becomes evident in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Evolence is a dermal filler made from collagen that is used to improve the appearance of moderately wrinkled skin, with little to no bruising after the initial procedure.
How To Physically Prepare for Evolence
Before undergoing an Evolence injection, you may wish to take a few precautions. In order to avoid or minimize any bruising, try to steer clear of taking aspirin, vitamin E and any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen for the week prior to the procedure.
How to Financially Prepare for Evolence
Evolence can be a costly procedure, depending on the amount of injections needed at each visit. If you feel that paying up front for the procedure does not fit into your budget, financing may be available. In many cases, the physician's office may offer a deferred payment plan. If this option is not available, there are a variety of credit companies that specialize in health care financing. Your doctor may even be able to recommend a preferred lender for your procedure. Some clinics will only accept payment from certain lenders, so be sure to ask before you proceed with applying for a loan.
When to Talk to Your Doctor
Be sure to inform your doctor if you have had any previous occurrences of facial cold sores, so that they can take the necessary precautions to reduce the chances of recurrence. While most doctors do not require any tests before the injection, be sure to consult your doctor for any specific tests or preparation techniques that the practice may recommend or require.
