Stoked to #repost these amazing photos by @injectedbeauty 😘💯 ・・・ Did you know that wrinkles formed by muscular movement form PERPENDICULAR to the direction of muscle pull? I get asked all the time, “Why didn’t this vertical line on my forehead go away with Botox, but all of my other wrinkles did?” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The answer: sleep lines! Swipe-> to see exactly where this patient’s skin folds when he is laying on his pillow at night. You guessed it, he’s a right side sleeper. The arrows point out the wrinkles formed by his sleeping position, and nothing else! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, what to do? Well, the easiest answer: sleep on your back! But more often than not, my patients tell me that they just can’t get comfortable sleeping on their back. And of course, getting poor sleep will wreak WAY more havoc on your health than a few facial wrinkles 😅 #true ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My favorite solution for this (and the one I use MYSELF) is the Envy Pillow. @envypillow designed their pillow with side sleepers in mind 👍🏼 and it supports your head in a slightly tilted upward position, preventing the face smoosh! Not only am I preventing these sleep lines (that will not go away with ANY aesthetic treatment...yes, that’s right-ANY!), 6 months or so in, I am sleeping better than I have in years, because @envypillow is SO comfortable!) Go check them out, and tell them @injectedbeauty sent you 😘 Thanks to this awesome patient of mine for being so cool about me posting these pictures of him 😘😘😘 #aestheticinjector #nurseinjector #botoxable #sleepwrinkles #CANSnurse #sidesleepingallowed #beautysleep #sleepwiththebest #envypillow https://www.instagram.com/p/BrLO9W5AQSY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kqy5x1dtnhy2
