Botox Cosmetic
BOTOX® is the purified form of the natural protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which when applied to targeted muscles in very low doses can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Treatment is simple, safe, and nonsurgical. BOTOX® has been used to treat a variety of conditions for more than 10 years and is now FDA-approved for the temporary treatment of frown lines.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a non-surgical, physician-administered aesthetic treatment for moderate to severe frown lines between the brows by reducing the contractions of the muscles that cause persistent frown lines that develop over time. Treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic can visibly smooth and soften moderate to severe frown lines between your brows. An improvement can be seen within days and may last up to 4 months, although results may vary.
In addition, Dr. Shin uses Botox Cosmetic for the treatment of headaches and teeth grinding. Please contact our office and schedule a consultation to learn more about these exciting new treatments.
The Procedure. Dr. Shin will determine where to administer the injections by examining your ability to move certain muscles in your brow area. He then anesthetizes the area using a topical or local anesthetic and injects Botox Cosmetic using a fine needle. The entire Botox Cosmetic injection procedure takes approximately 10 minutes.
Results. 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.
