Service description

BOTOX® treatment is a revolutionary approach to reversing the effects of facial wrinkles. Crow’s feet, worry lines, and laugh lines are referred to as dynamic wrinkle lines, and all are treatable with this procedure. Cosmetic denervation is the process of injecting BOTOX® into the tiny facial muscles that create wrinkles.

BEFORE SURGERYBEFORE SURGERY

We will evaluate your medical history before surgery to better understand your overall health. In addition, a complete examination of your eyes is performed to decide the most effective injection sites. All issues and concerns will be discussed. The areas that will be treated are marked, and digital photographs are taken to determine the improvement after surgery.

THE BOTOX® PROCEDURE

BOTOX® injections are performed without anesthesia because it is virtually painless. Only a very small sting is felt when the injections are made. The effects are not permanent and may need to be repeated two to three times per year to retain the results. Research has suggested, however, that long-term use of the injections leads to a longer duration of each treatment’s effect. Patients over the age of 65 may not experience as dramatic of results. BOTOX® is only useful in treating expression lines and cannot be used to repair sagging skin caused by aging.

POST-OPERATIVE INFORMATION

After the operation, patients may experience slight bruising around the area that quickly fades. Normal activities can be performed immediately. Possible side effects are temporary weakness of nearby muscles or, in rare cases, an eyelid may droop. BOTOX® is completely reversible, so any side effect is only temporary. The doctor will explain all associated risks at the time of your consultation.
