ANTI-WRINKLE TREATMENT (BOTOX) FOR “MEN AND WOMEN”

Botox procedure is one of the safest available for the reduction or softening of wrinkles. Botox is used to treat frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead, and lines around the eyes.

Botox can also be used to treat lines around the mouth and those on the neck. A few tiny injections are administered to the skin which calms the muscles and allows for a smoother, more relaxed appearance. The effect may take three to five days to appear.

A testimonial 2017
“I was looking gaunt, wrinkled, and tired: despite being fit and strong I could not fight middle age’s effect on my face! I decided on fillers and botox but was worried that I would spend money on little difference or on a frozen face! Dr. Nadjafi was efficient and calm and recommended fillers in my cheeks and jawline and botox for crow’s feet and forehead.  It was fairly painless and it was clear he knew what he was doing. I had some bruising but no other ill effects. After a week the difference was wonderful. I now look less tired and haggard and fresh and softer in the face. It’s not majorly noticeable to others and is subtle, but it is dramatically different to me.  Very impressed and pleased with the results. Recommended.”

The Overall Advantages of Treating Wrinkles with Botox:

  • Reduces or eliminates wrinkles without surgery.

  • Corrects underlying muscles (as opposed to the skin’s surface as peels do)

  • Provides dramatic effects which are customizable and reversible.

  • No sedation or anesthesia is needed; however, you may choose to have the area numbed with an anesthetic cream or a cold pack prior to injecting.

  • Discomfort is usually minimal and brief. Most patients compare the sensation to a pin prick and treatment takes only a few minutes.

 

How Botox Works:

First, a few drops of Botox are injected (with a tiny needle) into the muscle that creates the wrinkle. When Botox is injected into a muscle, it freezes the nerve impulse from reaching that area, and as a result, the muscle weakens. As the muscle weakens, the skin overlying the muscle relaxes and the wrinkles in the skin gradually soften and often disappear. If a specific muscle can’t move, it can’t cause a wrinkle. Botox treatment does not affect normal facial expressions.

DERMAL FILLERS FOR “MEN AND WOMEN”

Dermal fillers represent a non-surgical way to address this issue for the loss of facial volume facial volume. The results are a natural, more youthful look, with softer facial contours and a healthier appearance. The newest and safest dermal filler is Hyaluronic Acid (H.A). It is injected not only to fill lines (e.g. Laughter lines and Marionette lines) but to also volumize and to re-establish the youthful contour of the skin.

Restylane dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid dermal fillers applied under the skin to smooth away wrinkles and fill up specific facial areas. Hyaluronic acid fillers are similar to collagen but last longer (up to 12 months) and do not require skin testing for allergies. Restylane is made by Allergan, a well-respected company that is also the maker of Botox. Restylane Dermal Fillers are FDA-approved

The advantage of Restylane dermal fillers is that they naturally attract water molecules and hydrate the skin by holding in water and acting as a cushioning agent. This is what gives a smoother, healthier glow to the skin and creates a filling effect long after the actual Restylane filler is injected. Restylane fillers are placed slightly deeper into the skin because they are thicker and last longer.

 

Dermal Fillers are used for:

  • Nasolabial folds – these lines are formed by smiling and deepen with age. Restylane can make them virtually disappear!

  • Marionette folds – these lines go down from the corners of the mouth

  • Other folds – deep frown furrows, smoker’s lines, chin lines, etc.
