Preventative Botox
December 22, 2011
The first time I ever heard about 'preventative Botox' was when I was injecting for another physician in the Flatiron district of NYC.
Patients were asking for Botox injections that really did not have any significant wrinkles in the bridge of their nose, forehead or on the sides of their eyes.
I asked why they wanted botox and they replied to prevent these lines from forming. At the time I thought it was a bit much but now three years later I believe they may have been correct.
The fact that after Botox they will not be able to lift their brows as much as a person without the injection means they will not constantly create a fold in the skin and thus not form the lines that develop over time.
So now I agree, early prevention using Botox can help prevent age related lines and wrinkles.
Should you want to discuss Botox and what it can do for you call us at 631-675-1842.
