Los Angeles Botox Injections


Spalding Cosmetic Surgery and Dermatology - Cosmetic Procedures - Face -  BOTOX

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical treatment that smoothes the deep, persistent lines between the brows that have developed over time. One five-minute treatment --- a few tiny injections --- relaxes the muscles that cause the lines to form and keeps them relaxed, up to four months. It is virtually a painless procedure, similar to plucking eyebrows. BOTOX® Cosmetic has been widely tested and is approved by the FDA.

Our results are dramatic and apparent within days. For many, BOTOX® Cosmetic, virtually “erases” these lines.

Unlike surgery, Los Angeles BOTOX® Cosmetic is fast, simple and minimally invasive with no downtime or recovery. Most people return directly to work or normal activity following treatment. Within days, they report looking more natural and relaxed.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is not magic. It’s medicine, the result of years of careful research and testing. Allergan’s BOTOX® Cosmetic product is the only one of its type with more than 10 years of success in treating patients with a variety of conditions including hyperhydrosis (sweating palms and arm pits) and migraines.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a natural, purified protein produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium. Very low doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic are administered via a few tiny injections. BOTOX® Cosmetic works by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the injected muscles. The effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic are usually confined to the injected region; it does not travel throughout the body.

In addition to using Botox for wrinkles in the forehead, eye brows and crows feet, both Drs. Amron and Nassif have many happy patients using Botox in less common areas such as:

Upper lip lines
Downturn corners of lips
Eyebrow lift
“Bunny” nose lines
Lower eyelid wrinkles
Chin dimples
Neck creases and wrinkles
Migraine headaches
Hyperhydrosis (sweating palms and arm pits)
Sweaty foreheads

Frequently Asked Questions

What is BOTOX® Cosmetic?

BOTOX® Cosmetic is the most popular non-surgical procedure in Los Angeles including the rest of the country. Simply, Botox is a neuro-toxin derived from the same spore that causes botulism.

How does BOTOX® Cosmetic work?

Wrinkles are caused by the muscles creasing under the skin. When Botox is injected into the muscle tissue in minute doses, it temporarily paralyzes the muscle causing the muscle to relax and the wrinkles to disappear.

What is the most common downside of BOTOX® Cosmetic?

As in any procedure, the most common downside is inexperience. You must be sure that the person doing your procedure is a board certified physician such as Dr. Amron, a Dermatological surgeon or Dr. Paul Nassif, a facial plastic surgeon. The most common side effects are all temporary but can happen. Less than one percent of patients can experience a droopy eyebrow or eyelid for a few weeks to slight bruising.

How long do the effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic last?

The benefits of Botox can last from three to four months at which time you can have the procedure done again.

Does it hurt?

It’s no more painful than plugging your eyebrows and the procedure only takes seconds. Discomfort is minimal and brief. Once the injection is complete, there is usually no discomfort and the results can last up to four months.

Who is a good candidate for BOTOX® Cosmetic?

Any woman or man who is concerned about the appearance of their frown lines can consider BOTOX® Cosmetic. Treatment can be used by people from ages 18 to 80. Your doctor can help you decide if BOTOX® Cosmetic is right for you.
