While
BOTOX® Cosmetic remains one of the most popular,
and fastest non-surgical options for refreshing one’s
appearance, the way that BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments
are performed, makes a big difference between a “frozen
look” vs. a refreshed natural appearance.
As a
member of the BOTOX® Cosmetic Network in Houston,
Dr. Siegel is a specialist in the use of BOTOX when
it comes to meeting the needs and goals of patients.
He uses his thorough understanding of facial anatomy
and his skill for placing BOTOX injections in the
right places, in just the right quantity and concentration,
to achieve a rejuvenated natural look.
 BOTOX® Cosmetic
is a simple, nonsurgical, physician-administered
treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to
severe frown lines between the brows in people, 18
to 65 years of age. It is the only treatment of its
type approved by the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA).
One 10-minute treatment—a few tiny injections—and within days there's a
noticeable improvement in moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, which can
last up to 4 months. Results may vary.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein, which reduces the activity of the muscles
that cause those frown lines between the brows to form over time.
In 2005, almost 3.3 million procedures were performed with FDA-approved BOTOX® Cosmetic.
Having a treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic is one way that you can invest in your appearance.
Talking with your physician will help determine if BOTOX® Cosmetic is right for you.
BOTOX® Cosmetic does not improve the appearance of deep lines and folds, which are
created by the loss of skin collagen, a normal process of aging. These lines may be better
addressed with injectable fillers.
BOTOX® Cosmetic was the most popular physician-administered aesthetic procedure
in the United States for the fourth year in a row (surgical and nonsurgical combined).
The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) estimates that almost 3.3
million treatments were performed in 2005 alone—that's an increase of almost 16%
over 2004.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is the only treatment approved by the FDA for the temporary relief
of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people 18 to 65 years of age.
With one simple 10-minute treatment, results can be seen within a couple of days and
can last for up to 4 months. Individual results may vary.
The lines that appear between your brows (glabellar lines) actually result from muscle
movement and the passage of time. You may have heard the expression "wearing your
emotions on your sleeve," but in reality you wear them on your face. If you're angry
or annoyed, for example, you knit your brows together. Underneath your skin, your facial
muscles contract, cause a pleating of the overlying skin, and then, as anyone can see,
you're frowning.
After years of crinkling and wrinkling, those glabellar lines start to linger longer
and can become more pronounced. For women, whose faces tend to be more animated than
men's, and whose skin is typically more delicate, these lines may appear exaggerated
and more permanent.
Fortunately, there is a way to temporarily reduce moderate to severe glabellar lines.
Treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic can visibly smooth and soften moderate to severe frown
lines between your brows. BOTOX® works by reducing the contractions of the muscles that
cause those persistent frown lines that have developed between your brows over time. An improvement can be seen within days and may last up to 4
months, although results may vary. In clinical trials, nearly 90% of men and women surveyed
rated the improvement in the appearance of frown lines between their brows as moderate
to better 1 month after treatment.
The beauty of a BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment is that it's a simple, 10-minute, non-surgical
process. A few tiny injections, and within days there can be a noticeable improvement
in the moderate to severe frown lines between the brows that can last up to 4 months.
Results may vary. And there’s no recovery time. You can even do it on your lunch
break.
- Doctor Siegel will administer several tiny injections of BOTOX® Cosmetic directly
into the muscles that cause those moderate to severe frown lines between the brows.
- Doctor Siegel will determine where to administer the injections by examining your
ability to move certain muscles in your brow area. The location, size, and use of
the muscles that create a furrowed brow vary markedly among individuals.
- No anesthesia is required, although Doctor Siegel may choose to numb the area with
a cold pack or anesthetic cream prior to injecting. Discomfort is usually minimal
and brief.
- You can expect to be in and out of Doctor Siegel’s office without downtime.
You may see a marked improvement in the moderate to severe frown lines between your
brows within days. Improvement may continue for as long as a month, and could last
up to 4 months.
- Results may vary.
If you do not continue treatments, the frown lines between your brows
will gradually look like they did before treatment.
Of course, we know that seeing is believing. So check out before and after
