Wrinkles,
Wrinkles everywhere! A multitude of factors lead to aging
and wrinkling in the skin. After years of crinkling, facial
lines start to linger and become more pronounced. For women,
whose faces tend to be more animated, and who have more delicate
skin, these lines may appear exaggerated and more permanent.
Wrinkles in the skin, particularly on the face are caused
by four factors: Muscle movement pulling on the skin, sun
damage, cellular age related changes and smoking. Botox® works
by weakening the muscles that pull on the skin, the main factor
causing the lines between the eyebrows and at the outer corners
of your eyes. Botulinum Toxin injections are one of the most
effective treatments to soften and even eliminate wrinkles.
Why see an Ophthalmic plastic surgeon
for Botox®?
Botulinum toxin was actually first used by ophthalmologists,
and still is, to treat spasm disorders effecting the eyelids,
as well as for treating double vision. Since most cosmetic
injections are close to the eye and have potential side effects,
it is the ophthalmologist above all others that understand
how Botox® works, how to administer it, an how to avoid complications.
