Botox treatment from your dermatologist redefines beauty

Botox has become a highly recognized cosmetic treatment in the ten-plus years that men and women have turned to this injectable to fight the signs of aging. We are happy to provide an outstanding level of care that includes wrinkle reduction with the Botox cosmetic solution. With a single-visit treatment in our office near Glen Ridge, a number of benefits can be obtained.

Minimally invasive treatment for beautiful results

One of the best things about Botox cosmetic is its gentle, minimally invasive nature. Before the unique side effects of the botulinum Type A toxin were discovered, those wishing to slow the hands of time had no real options outside of invasive cosmetic surgery. Today, for many people, Botox is a wonderful alternative to face or brow lift surgery. Working with your experienced dermatologist can lead to beautiful, youthful skin that leaves you feeling great about your appearance.

Gorgeous, youthful skin with few, if any, side effects

The choice of cosmetic procedures requires the consideration of after care, not to mention preparatory steps and general anesthesia. With Botox treatments, our patients have very little to think about besides the way they will feel when crow’s feet or frown lines have been smoothed out. After cosmetic procedures, days or weeks may be needed for recovery. After Botox treatment, it is possible to go straight back to work or other activities. We recommend no exercising for the remainder of the treatment day and staying upright for six hours.

Most commonly, the only side effects noticed are mild swelling or slight bruising in the areas where injections were administered. Some individuals experience a mild headache that may linger for an hour or two after treatment. So mild are the effects of Botox that many of our patients experience dramatic anti-aging by combining this cosmetic drug with other treatments such as dermal fillers. Used as a solitary treatment, Botox efficiently reduces the signs of age that occur on the upper part of the face, such as frown lines. By incorporating dermal fillers in to the treatment plan, it is possible to eliminate problems like sagging jowls or poorly defined cheekbones.
