BOTOX® Cosmetic is an injectable in-office treatment. Historically, Botox is made from a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. After significant testing and FDA approval, this naturally occuring substance is only used in small and very safe concentrations. This solution works by temporarily relaxing the muscles in the target area, resulting in the reduced appearance of unwanted wrinkles.
Cosmetically speaking, this injectable procedure can be used to treat the following:
·        Eyelid spasms
·        Excessive sweating
·        Crow’s feet (wrinkles around the eyes)
·        Frown lines/brow lines
Our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Dean Kleto, knows and understands that every patient’s needs and aesthetic goals are unique. BOTOX® Cosmetic may not be for everyone. Other treatments and procedures may be the right choice if you are trying to rejuvenate your facial appearance, including:
·        Dermal fillers
·        Laser resurfacing
During your consultation, Dr. Kleto will develop a personalized treatment plan for your cosmetic enhancement goals.
