The Fountain of Youth
Botox is the fountain of youth available today. This neurotoxin paralyzes the frown muscles of the face. It is used in the forehead, between the eyes, around the eyes and occasionally in the upper lip. This gives a smoothing effect to these areas and eliminates the scowling and tired appearance that we develop with age. These effects are immediate and last up to 4 months.
The procedure is performed in the office. It takes approximately 5 minutes. It can be done over a lunch hour. There is minimal bruising and essentially no pain with the injections. Patients who do this earlier in life before wrinkles become apparent, can minimize the wrinkles that occur later in life. The effects can last longer (up to 6 months) if the person regularly has the Botox injections. There is essentially no site effects.
