Neuromodulators
BOTOX® Cosmetic and Jeauveau® are both purified protein and a simple, nonsurgical treatment that is injected directly into the muscles. Aesthetically, it is used to improve the look of moderate-to-severe dynamic wrinkles in people 18 years of age and up. Results appear in 3-14 days and lasts 3-6 months. It works by blocking nerve impulses to the injected muscles and reduces muscle activity that cause moderate to severe lines and wrinkles.
Ideal areas to treat include:
- Frown Lines: The 'll' between your eyebrows when you frown can be softened.
- Forehead Lines: The horizontal lines that appear on your forehead when you raise your eyebrows.
- Periorbital Lines: Also known as "crow's feet", these lines around your eyes can be reduced and smoothed.
- Bunny Lines: Horizontal lines at the bridge of the nose.
- Peach-Pit or Pebble-Stone Chin: Dimpling that appears at rest or during animation can be reduced with Botox.
- Perioral Lines: Sometimes called smoker's lines. These lines are hereditary and you do not need to be a smoker to get them.
- Platysmal Neck Bands: The rings/lines around your neck that run from the top portion of the neck to the base of your neck and pull the skin down.
Botox and Jeauveau are both available at our office. Set up an appointment and we will be happy to help you address your problem areas.
