BOTOX Cosmetic Injectable
Botox is botulinum toxin which is a neuromodulator. This means it erases wrinkles by freezing the muscles that are causing the wrinkles in your skin like when you frown. Do people say you look mad all the time because of the deep furrow between your eyebrows? Do you feel like your forehead is a road map? Crows feet? Or maybe you have those annoying fine lines above your lips? These are just a few areas where Botox is beneficial. Botox is one of the least expensive, nonsurgical treatments you can do to take years off your face. Call us today for your appointment with Dr. Trussell....501-228-6237

We Strive for a Natural, Rejuvenated Look
More is not always better. Dr. Trussell will recommend the amount of Botox (or any other product) that she thinks you need to achieve a natural look. She wants the appearance to be so natural that other people think you just looked refreshed and rested, but can't really pinpoint what you're doing differently. She listens to your concerns and offers advice to help you achieve the look you want and to budget your money wisely.
Many times Botox is used in conjunction with other skin rejuvenation treatments such as injections of dermal fillers, IPL, medical grade chemical peels, laser resurfacing, Exion, EmFace or microneedling. 501-228-6237
Average Units of Botox Needed For Each Treatment Area
The number of units needed to treat each area depends on the severity of your wrinkles and your response to Botox. Some patients require more units to effectively smooth out their wrinkles while others require less. Men often require more units because they have stronger muscles and more testosterone. Dr. Trussell will inject whatever amount is required to obtain an optimal result. Also understand that Botox generally lasts 3 months, but depending on the strength of the muscle treated, it could last a longer or shorter period of time.
