Botox®
Introduction
Botulinum Toxin has received enormous media publicity recently mainly because the procedure is painless and the results are both dramatic and quick.
Indication
Botox® can be injected for wrinkles in the forehead, glabellar region (frown lines), crow's feet area, and the lips. This can be done in conjunction with other procedures such as facelift, skin resurfacing, and soft tissue filler with collagen and fat.
Technique
The procedure is performed in the office. The areas to be injected are marked and injected with Botox®.
Following the Procedure
The full effect takes about three days for complete wrinkle reduction. The effect lasts for approximately three months. To avoid repeat injections of the glabellar areas, please contact our office for a consultation for a surgical procedure which will accomplish the same results.
