Aesthetic medicine has experienced tremendous growth over the past couple of decades. With all of the innovative technologies that have been developed, men and women facing unwanted signs of aging have more options than ever to erase them.
If you have become frustrated with lines and wrinkles on
your forehead, between your brows, or around your eyes, the solution
that may be ideal for you could be the injectable cosmetic that started
it all: Botox.
Since its inception, Botox has been the go-to wrinkle
reducing treatment for men and women all around the world. Those in the
Bay Area visit Dr. Christine Lee in her Walnut Creek office for expert
care that achieves the results they seek. Although Dr. Lee is well aware
of the benefits of Botox, she recommends care only after a thorough
discussion of the problem and your expectations. A skin assessment is
also conducted. Because of the unique abilities of Botox, its
indications are very clear. This cosmetic solution has been widely used
to lift a sagging brow and reduce common signs of aging on the upper
part of the face.
How Botox is unique
Botox is not like dermal fillers. Its formulation inhibits muscle contraction. This does not mean that you will not be able to make facial expressions, but the muscles that are always tensed will become relaxed. As a result, the lines and wrinkles on the skin above these muscles diminish. Patients we have treated with this solution have been delighted with the results.
After a single treatment with Botox, the skin may remain smooth for up to four months. Every person’s metabolism differs, so it is difficult to predict the longevity of results. Fortunately, touch-up treatments are convenient and affordable.
There are several reasons why, even with various other choices, patients continue to turn to Botox for their anti-aging treatments. With proven efficacy and safety, this non-surgical wrinkle-reducing treatment remains one of our favorites, too.
