Updates in Cosmetic Medicine


New and Less Common Uses for Botox

The safety and efficacy of Botox for treatment of lines and wrinkles on the face is well established. In more recent years  dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons have increasingly endorsed it’s use as a preventative treatment, and twin studies have been able to show that regular use of Botox will not only soften existing wrinkles, but will prevent the progressive development of deepening wrinkles over time. Increasingly, new methods of using Botox for other than facial lines are being developed. In a recent paper Dr. Steven Liew and Dr. Andrea Dart of Sydney Australia have shown that Botox injection in the masseter muscles (muscles at the angle of the jaw), can soften the facial contour of  individuals with a more square, masculine facial shape. The result is a more rounded feminine facial shape. Injection of Botox in the DOA, a muscle that tends to pull the angle of the mouth down, can improve the appearance of the mouth , and comcomitant use of Botox in the area of the upper lip, when hyaluronic acid filler is used to plump the lips, can improve the definition of the lip border. Botox can also be used to alleviate so called “bands” in the neck, and in the chest to alleviate crepe lines above the cleavage. Allergan has also just announced positive results of it's most recent study of Botox for treatment of chronic migraines.  New and creative uses for Botox are being developed all the time!

Look Forward to hearing from you soon!    From the all the Staff at MCSC
