New York City Botox® Cosmetic, Manhattan Botox® Cosmetic NYC
Facial muscles create wrinkles and lines when we animate. The more they contract over time, the more ingrained the lines become in our skin. Some lines, such as smile lines, are quite beautiful, while others that result from scowls, frowns, and consternation we can often do without. By relaxing or weakening some of these contracting muscles, frown lines, worry lines, crow's feet, and
wrinkles can be softened, and sometimes even erased. Botox® Cosmetic is a treatment that blocks nerve impulses to muscles. When used in small doses in the muscles that cause wrinkles of the forehead and face, Botox® Cosmetic can smooth existing creases, and can even prevent the formation of new wrinkles.

Botox® Cosmetic is injected into the muscles of the face using tiny needles. The goal with Botox is to leave you looking refreshed and rejuvenated, never frozen. Most often, the lines associated with a scowl or with fatigue, such as the vertical furrows between the brows (the glabella), are treated more liberally with Botox® Cosmetic. Occasionally, when these glabellar lines are more deeply etched into the skin, the addition of an injectable filler such as Restylane© or Juvaderm© to the Botox® Cosmetic treatment provides both relaxation and refilling of the lines when muscle action and volume loss are the causes of the deep lines or furrows. Dr. Kolker always advocates a conservative Botox treatment approach first, with the goal of smoothing or reducing lines while maintaining a natural animation pattern. The Botox treatment takes minutes to perform, and takes several days to become apparent. You may return to work or other activities immediately after Botox® Cosmetic treatment. Botox® Cosmetic treatments last approximately three to four months.
Botox® Cosmetic can also be used for the treatment of fine lines due to muscle actions above the lips, as well as in the muscle bands (platysma muscle) in the neck. Botox® Cosmetic is also very effective in treating excessive perspiration, called hyperhydrosis, and can last for more than six months.
