BOTOX™

Serving New York City, Manhattan, Long Island, and surrounding areas

Although it is a toxin, BOTOX™ Cosmetic has been used safely by ophthalmologists for over 10 years. It has been used for wrinkle therapy since the early 1990's with no serious side effects documented.

BOTOX™ Cosmetic injections relax the muscles that create wrinkles thereby lessening the appearance of frown lines, laugh lines and crow's feet. After a BOTOX™ Cosmetic injection, for example, you are no longer able to frown so the lines created by frowning are eliminated.

A protein toxin produced by the clostridium botulinum bacteria, BOTOX™ Cosmetic eliminates the facial wrinkles that occur with overuse of facial muscles.

A small amount of BOTOX™ Cosmetic is injected right into the muscles that are responsible for creating wrinkles. BOTOX™ Cosmetic effectively inactivates the muscles that produce wrinkles, thereby causing lines to disappear or diminish dramatically.

Before	After
BOTOX™

Some of the common areas treated include crow's feet, frown lines, laugh lines, and forehead wrinkles.

A BOTOX™ Cosmetic treatment is quick and results usually last three to six months. After that you may return for a follow-up injection. Some doctors report that after several treatments, the effect of BOTOX™ Cosmetic appears to last longer, often up to several months.

The most common complication is a slight, temporary drooping of the eyelid. BOTOX™ Cosmetic is used in extremely small amounts and does not spread throughout the body so you can return to full activity immediately.

BOTOX™ Cosmetic can be used by almost anyone: patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding or who have a neurologic disease should not use BOTOX™ Cosmetic.
