Botox®
is now FDA
approved to temporarily
reduce wrinkles
Botox is
an extremely effective treatment for facial wrinkles
in the forehead, between the eyes and in the "crows
feet" areas. Botulinum toxin, or Botox works by
weakening the muscles of facial expression. Once
the resting tone of the treated muscles is weakened,
the pull of the muscles
relaxes and the overlying skin flattens. Botox

spasms for approximately 15 years.
Juvederm is hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally
occurring sugar found in our skin. It comes in the
form of gel which is injected through a needle into
different areas of the skin. Juvederm has a
different use than Botox in restoring a youthful
appearance. While Botox is effective on improving
specific lines, Juvederm is best used to fill contours such as
the nasolabial folds, corners of the mouth, scars,
and provide additional fullness to the lips. |
