BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily
smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people from 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
those persistent lines between the brows, which can last up to 4 months. Results may vary.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces
the activity of the muscles that cause those frown lines between the brows to form over time.
Patients who desire BOTOX® in Beverly Hills
may have noticed the effects of age, gravity, exposure to sunlight, and
the stresses of life all taking their toll on a person's face. Deep
creases often develop around the nose, eyes, and mouth causing
unsightly wrinkles which make the patient look older. Such factors may
affect an individual's confidence, leading them to seek their own
BOTOX® treatment. BOTOX® can help such individuals restore youthful
vibrance and energy to the face. The effects of time are virtually
undone to restore an individual's face and to remove some of the
effects of time and aging. Dr. Hassid accomplishes such effects by
injecting BOTOX® beneath wrinkles to smooth them out. BOTOX®
effectively relaxes the facial muscles underneath the skin which causes
the wrinkles. This not only helps to restore the physical appearance of
the patient, but also restores self-confidence and respect to the
patient.
Use of BOTOX® is an individualized procedure in which your goals should
be realistically determined and discussed with your physician. Together
you will determine what specific procedures will be performed. BOTOX®
is often used in conjunction with other procedures such as a face lift
or eye surgery. Once your goals have been determined you will set a
date for this procedure and will be given instructions about how to
prepare. When the date for your Beverly Hills BOTOX®
has arrived, the procedure should not take long unless you are having
other procedures performed with the injection. Each injection has
relatively little pain or discomfort, usually a stinging or burning
sensation unless an anesthesia is used. It is important to remember
that BOTOX® injections are no replacement for surgery procedures and
can not achieve as dramatic of a result. BOTOX® injections are also
usually temporary in nature, but the length of duration may differ
between individuals.
Individuals may also consider fat
injections. In a fat injection, fat is removed from another portion of
the body and then injected into the body to fill in wrinkles. Due to
the nature of the procedure, it will usually take longer than other
injectables as the fat must first be removed from the patient before it
is reinjected. Recovery is usually quick and post-recovery pains are
minor. Usually a bit of swelling may occur and redness usually subsides
within about a day or so. The degree of swelling will usually depend on
the size of the treated area and other individual factors unique to
each patient. Please visit our home page to learn more about BOTOX® in
