Reduction of the wrinkles caused by frowning is the purpose of BOTOX® Cosmetic. Most people notice these wrinkles in the forehead, lines in between the eyes or crows feet which are wrinkles around the eyes. Repetitive contraction of muscles can cause these wrinkles to appear on the surface of the skin. BOTOX Cosmetic works by blocking nerve impulses that makes these muscles relax. The skin on top of the muscle then becomes smoother resulting in a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. Many people love BOTOX Cosmetic!
We believe that it is very important to evaluate the anatomy and features of each patient’s face prior to giving BOTOX Cosmetic injections. In addition, we will take into consideration the look you are trying to achieve such as getting an eyebrow lift or retaining some movement for a more natural look. Some people like a very smooth look, and others do not, so we take each patient on a case-by-case basis. One size definitely does not fit all when it comes to BOTOX Cosmetic!
Another benefit of having us administer your BOTOX Cosmetic is our ability to provide advanced BOTOX Cosmetic injection techniques. These include BOTOX Cosmetic injections to improve lines and wrinkles around the mouth as well as wrinkles and folds in the lower face and neck. Additionally, we provide the “Botox Brow lift” which can raise the eyebrow to provide a rejuvenated and more youthful look. Of course, we continue to administer BOTOX Cosmetic in the more traditional areas of forehead, in between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet.
BOTOX® is used as an alternative treatment for TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders and associated jaw tension and pain. When injected into facial muscles afflicted with soreness and discomfort, BOTOX relieves TMJ and jaw tension for many patients. The injections often eliminate headaches resulting from teeth grinding, and, in cases of severe stress, BOTOX can even minimize lock jaw.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgery, Botox and dermal filler procedures are the two fastest growing cosmetic treatments over the last decade and the dollar amount spent on the two exceeds the combined amount spent on breast implants and liposuction. These procedures have become popular in this uncertain economy because patients want to look better with options that are more affordable and less radical than surgery. The trend is here to stay and if dentists can provide these services in a completely painless way, the added benefit is remarkable. Learn more at www.aestheticmedicinenews.com
