Botox For A Youthful Look

Botox For A Youthful Look

The skin on our faces is affected by exposure to the sun, loss of elasticity due to aging, gravity, and toxins in the environment. You may look in the mirror one day and decide it is time to look into anti-aging treatments. BOTOX injections can be an excellent way to restore a more youthful, rested facial appearance. BOTOX treatments are quick, safe, and the results are proven to be excellent.

What is BOTOX?

BOTOX cosmetic contains a form of botulinum toxin. This toxin is a muscle-relaxing agent that is safe and effective in the doses used. The injections relax the facial muscles in the desired areas to create a smoother, more refreshed esthetic appearance. Cosmetic Dentist Marielaina Perrone DDS offers natural esthetic results with BOTOX in Las Vegas. Her extensive experience and knowledge of the facial muscles gives her an advantage to create the most natural look possible.

Am I a good candidate for BOTOX?

The best candidates for BOTOX treatment are those that are in good overall health with no history of neuromuscular diseases. BOTOX patients should not be currently pregnant or nursing their baby. Dr Perrone will thoroughly review your medical history with you to ensure you are a good candidate for safe effective results.

What happens during a BOTOX procedure

BOTOX is injected with an extremely fine needle. This needle is placed directly into the selected facial muscles creating the fine lines and creases on your skin. Marielaina Perrone DDS has years of experience and comprehensive knowledge of the anatomy of the face. She will select the exact muscles that are causing these lines and wrinkles. There is very little, if any, pain associated with BOTOX injections. A numbing cream is available prior to injections to make you feel completely comfortable with the process. The entire treatment is completed in-office in 10-15 minutes. 

What areas can be treated with BOTOX?

The following areas can achieve a smoother appearance with Las Vegas BOTOX injections:

Frown Lines: These are the vertical lines between your eyes. Caused by the muscles that cause frowning hence the name.

Glabellar lines: These are the fine lines that appear above your eyebrows and run horizontally. These are due to the muscles that make us appear sad or happy.

Crow's Feet: These are in the outer corners of our eyes as we get older.

Bunny Lines (Transverse nasal): The horizontal line that occurs at the top of the nose.

Perioral Lines (Smoker's Lines): The fine vertical lines that surround the mouth.

Marionette Lines: This is an area that dermal fillers typically treat but Dr Perrone has gotten very good results treating this area with Botox injections.

Vertical Platysma: BOTOX can help improve the appearance of overactive platysmal bands in the neck, which creates vertical bands.

Brow Lift: Through skilled, expert injection placement, the muscles in the forehead can be relaxed. This will result in an lift to the forehead.

When will I see results with BOTOX?

Optimal results typically take a few days to appear. It is not an immediate reaction. About 48 hours following your Botox injections in Las Vegas, you will start to notice an improvement in the dynamic wrinkles of the face as mentioned above. The full effects of your BOTOX treatment generally take up to two weeks following the injections to see. It is recommended that you plan well in advance for a special occasion such as a wedding or other engagement so you can look your best at the proper time.

How long do results last with BOTOX?

Results will vary from patient to patient. The effects of BOTOX will typically last from three to four months. Your muscles will eventually unrelax, and the wrinkles that were treated with Botox will again become visible. Many find that when the lines and wrinkles return, they are less severe than they were before injections with BOTOX. Regular Botox treatments will keep new wrinkles at bay as well.

What is the recovery with BOTOX?

Some patients experience minor bruising or small red marks at the injection sites following your BOTOX treatment but they disappear quickly. Makeup can be applied several hours after treatment. Although you can resume normal activity after BOTOX injections, Dr Perrone advises patients to avoid strenuous exercise or any activity that causes heavy sweating for 24 hours after your injections, and do not massage the sites of injection.
