Meet Dr. SinnoWhat is BOTOX used for?
BOTOX Cosmetic (and Dysport) help women and men resolve many of the lines, wrinkles, and creases that commonly make us look older before we’re ready, including:
- Horizontal forehead furrows
- Vertical lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the outside corners of the eyes
Many patients achieve impressive results by combining BOTOX or Dysport with wrinkle fillers such as Restylane®, JUVÉDERM®, RADIESSE®, or Sculptra®, or another modern skin care treatment.
How do BOTOX & Dysport work?
Unlike dermal fillers, these products go straight to the main cause of “dynamic” wrinkles: the facial muscles that contract with every expression. Whether you smile, frown, or squint, your skin becomes creased over time as movements are repeated and skin becomes less resilient. BOTOX and Dysport temporarily suspend targeted muscle movements, allowing the wrinkles to gradually smooth out. Especially effective in younger patients, these treatments can help subdue the effects of aging with periodic treatments.
What happens during a BOTOX or Dysport treatment?
One of the things that makes Dr. Sinno unique from many other plastic surgeons is that he does not delegate injectable treatments to other staff; he performs these injections himself to ensure his patients receive precise results. He performs BOTOX and Dysport treatments by making injections with a fine needle into the targeted facial muscles. The entire process is usually completed in less than 15 minutes. Because discomfort is so minimal, anesthetic is not usually required.
How long does it take for BOTOX to work the first time?
It will take a few days for your targeted areas to begin smoothing out after your treatment. Most patients notice themselves gradually looking younger and more refreshed in 1 week.
How long do the effects of BOTOX last?
The results last approximately 3 to 5 months and gradually dissipate. The improvement can be maintained with regular treatments.
