“Botox is the most popular cosmetic procedure in the United States. The injection into key muscles gives a more relaxed look and the benefits may be cumulative after many treatments.”

– Dr. Lupo

Botox is a cosmetic medication that actually began as a medical treatment. This type of medication is what is called a neuromodulator. In general terms, what this means is that, injected into muscles, Botox will weaken muscle stimulation. Originally designed for use on furrows between the brows, Botox has come a long way in the few decades it has been used cosmetically. Though various other cosmetic treatments have been developed since Botox, this treatment remains one of the most popular anti-aging tools in cosmetic dermatology. Dr. Lupo may use this cosmeceutical to treat concerns such as:

Brow furrows, known as “11s”
Lines across the forehead
Crow’s feet
Lines around the lips and mouth
Chin dimpling
Lines across the neck, called platysmal bands
Excessive sweating

What can Botox treat?

Botox works for the frown lines between the eyebrows they are called the glabella frown lines and are nicknamed the elevens because usually there a two of them. Some people have one and some have four or five it just depends on how the muscles work.

How does Botox work?

It blocks the neurochemical attaching to the receptor at the muscle. So, the nerve releases a neurochemical called the acetylcholine that crosses the neuromuscular junction attaches to muscle receptor and makes the muscles twitch.

What Botox and other neuromodulators do is block the ability the neurotransmitting chemical to have an effect on the muscles, so, the neuromuscular blockage. The effect lasts anywhere from 3-5 months typically there is always variability. Then the body by-passes those receptors and start using other receptors.

Neuromodulators such as Jeuveau, Botox, Dysport or Xeomin can reduce lines and wrinkles around eyes known as crow’s feet

A lot of patients don’t understand what causes their crow’s feet. First of all, you need to know that sun damages are a contributing factor to the lines we get when we smile. And there are two muscles that are involved with causing crow’s feet. One is the orbicularis oculi. That’s the circular muscle that we inject with the neuromodulators. When we use Dysport, Xeomin or Jeuveau, we are using that product of label. Botox is FDA approved for the crow’s feet but it is important to notice that there is an important muscle complex called the zygomaticus muscle. This muscle pushes the cheek up when we smile. It goes from the corner of the mouth to here and it pushes our cheek up. The doctor must be careful not to inject the lower orbicularis oculi too aggressively and … hit muscle fibres of the zygomaticus major muscle. If that happens, the patient will not be able to smile appropriately.

Why doesn’t Botox (or any neuromodulator) last as long in the forehead?

A lot of people asked questions on Instagram about why their Botox doesn’t last as long on their forehead as it does for their frown lines. There is a very good reason for that. The frontalis muscle is a very important muscle to lift the eyebrows. If it is over injected in order to totally freeze the forehead for a long period of time, so the patient sees absolutely no horizontal frown lines, it will result in a flat or droopy brow. A flat or droopy brow is not the price to pay to get red of a .. A natural look is achieved when the forehead or frontalis muscle is treated in a feathering pattern to give a softened lift to the eyebrow rather than a droop to the eyebrow.

Botox, Dysport and Xeomin are names of the neuromodulators that are FDA approved in the United States. Of course, Botox is the best known. Botox was FDA approved in 2002 and it really caused a revolution in nine surgical rejuvenations. What Botox does is it relaxes key muscles that the doctor identifies as being overactive. These overactive muscles result in unwanted lines and … Most people know that Botox is primarily used for the frown lines sometimes called as the … But a lot of people are unaware that Botox is a great option for crow’s feet. In fact, I did the FDA study for approval for Botox for the crow’s feet. In addition, we use Botox in the forehead lines and we also use Botox in key very minute areas around the mouth, to soften a dimple chin and even to diminish jawline around the mouth and to improve neck bending.
