Botox
Are you noticing more lines around your eyes, on your forehead or around your mouth? It may be time to consider Botox.
What is Botox?
Botox is a neurotoxin that disrupts signals between nerves and muscles. Essentially, it temporarily paralyzes muscles. In small doses, it is safe and effective for reducing wrinkles and fine lines. Other neurotoxins include Dysport, Daxxify, Xeomin and Jeuveau.
Cosmetic Uses of Botox
While the primary use of Botox is reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles, there are other uses as well. Botox is FDA approved for the use of improving wrinkles between the eyebrow, around the eyes (crow’s feet), and horizontal creases on the forehead. However, it is also used to treat lines around the mouth and cobblestone skin on the chin.
Botox Lip Flip
Another new use of Botox is the lip flip. During this procedure, small amounts of Botox are injected into the area around the upper lip. This relaxes the muscle and allows the top lip to roll slightly upward, giving the appearance of fuller lips without actually adding volume. This is also used to treat gummy smiles.
Botox for Hyperhidrosis
Botox injections can significantly improve excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis. The neurotoxin blocks the nerves that trigger the sweat glands, effectively reducing the symptoms.
Dermal Fillers
Injectable dermal fillers are a great way to add volume to thin lips, enhance contours of the face, improve deep lines and folds, remove wrinkles and improve the appearance of scars. Dermal fillers can also be used to improve the appearance of the nose and reduce the signs of aging in the hands.
