Botulinum toxin injection, commonly referred as Botox, is a substance which relaxes the skeletal muscles. Its use in aesthetic plastic surgery is indicated in reducing dynamic wrinkles in the upper third of the face and producing a fresh face with a sparkling glance. Nefertiti lift is the technique of botox injection in the neck to reduce platysma bands and achieve a youthful appearance.
Botox
What is it?
The procedure
Botox@ or Dysport@ is injected via tiny needles in the muscles of glabella, forehead and crows feet. I find it important to treat all these regions in order to achieve a natural result. When indicated, I inject the muscles of the nose, upper lip, chin and neck. Other clinical conditions treated with botox injection are the benign essential blepharospasm, hyperhidrosis and chronic migraines.
Instructions
The patient should not exercise or bend down for 4 hours following the treatment. We strongly advise avoidance of warm baths and scrubbing their face for 1 day.
Result
We finally achieve a calm and freshened up face after 4-5 days. Dynamic wrinkles are significantly reduced. Results last up to 6 months.
