Botox

BOTOX® is a weakened form of Botulinum toxin and the most common facial filler on the market. It works by weakening the muscles that control facial expressions. It can be an extremely effective treatment for wrinkles in the upper third of the face, including the forehead, between the eyes, and around the eyes in the “crows feet” areas.

Who is a Good Candidate for BOTOX?

In general, the best candidates are individuals with mild wrinkling of the face. During the initial consultation, Dr. Roesner will determine if you are a good candidate for neurotoxin, or if an alternative cosmetic technique will yield better results.

How Are the Injections Performed?

Using a very tiny needle, small amounts of neurotoxin are injected into the muscles to be paralyzed. Depending on the areas being treated, 5 to 15 needle pricks (or more) may be required. Discomfort is minimal and lasts only a few seconds. This paralysis is temporary, and re-injection is necessary within three to six months.
