Want to improve your appearance? Fed up from frown lines, worry lines, laugh lines, crow’s feet and rest of the so-called dynamic wrinkles. Don’t worry cosmetic denervation is the procedure which will help you in this process. Dynamic wrinkles generally occur when delicate muscles lying underneath aging skin contract during the process of smiling, laughing and frowning. In the cosmetic denervation BOTOX( botulinum toxin cosmetic) is injected into the muscles. This cosmetic weakens these tiny muscles, therefore after the treatment overlying skin appear unwrinkled and smooth. On the other hand untreated muscles contract normally allowing facial expression to remain unaffected.
Although Botox Cosmetic in Los Angeles is a new and innovative treatment for dynamic wrinkles, BOTOX injections have been effectively and safely used in the ophthalmologic and neurologic disorders for more than a decade. The Best Doctor for Botox in Los Angeles have adequate experience with BOTOX cosmetic injections. Our doctors were the first group to use BOTOX injection for cosmetic purposes and have performed thousands of BOTOX injections.
Cosmetic denervation is a simple and safe procedure. A very small amount of BOTOX® Before and After Botox Cosmetic Denervation is the safe and simple procedure. A very fine needle is used for this purpose and a minute amount of BOTOX Cosmetic is injected into several locations of the face. Just because the shape and size, pain associated with this procedure is also minimal. People who have gone through this procedure say that they feel a sensation similar to ant or fly bite, not more than this. Therefore no local anaesthetic and sedation are needed, further, a person can quickly get into action immediately after the injection. Though slight bruising of the skin can be noticed on the injection side other than this there will be no visible sign of the treatment.
Bruising are uncommon and very mild in nature. There is no complication in this cosmetic denervation, but sometimes medication migrate from this original position, this might cause temporary weakness of close muscles. Rarely this issue reaches to the stage of asymmetry facial expression and dropping of the eyelid. Though the risk of side effects depends highly on the muscle which is injected. Don’t worry the effects of BOTOX cosmetic is temporary and completely reversible in nature and last up to few weeks.
If dynamic wrinkles are making you look older than you should, cosmetic denervation can smooth these out and give you a more youthful appearance. However, this procedure will not improve the more common “static” wrinkles that are unrelated to facial muscle contraction. You should also understand that cosmetic denervation will not improve loose or sagging skin and does not serve the same function as a face-lift.
Unfortunately, cosmetic denervation is not a permanent solution to the problem of dynamic wrinkles. Because the injections only last about four to six months, treatments typically should be scheduled two to three times a year.
At Dermatique we have pioneered the use of BOTOX® Cosmetic for areas other than the forehead or between the eyes. We were the first to describe the “BOTOX® Cosmetic Browlift” and we pioneered the use of BOTOX® Cosmetic in lower face, neck and around the mouth.

What are the results with Jeuveau™?
In 2 major clinical trials by Evolus the manufactures of Jeuveau™, when checked at the 30-day mark, 67.5% of patients in 1 study and 70.4% of subjects in a second study were responders defined as a 2-point composite improvement agreed upon by physician and patient.
How does Jeuveau™ work?
Jeuveau™ prevents your nerves from telling your facial muscles to flex. The result? In clinical trials, Jeuveau™ was shown to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines. In 2 long-term safety studies, patients received an average of 3 treatments over the course of 1 year.
What’s it like before and after treatment?
If it’s your first time getting a treatment, you may be a little nervous. And that’s okay! Localized pain, infection, inflammation, tenderness, swelling, erythema, and/or bleeding/bruising may be associated with the injection.
For specific instructions on what to do before and after your injection, please follow the instructions as given to you by your doctor or healthcare provider.

Dysport
Dysport is a prescription injection for temporary improvement in the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults under the age of 65. Prescription Dysport is an injection used to temporarily improve the look of your moderate to severe frown lines without changing the look of your whole face. The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas.
Dysport is a formulation that has been shown to deliver temporary improvement in moderate to severe frown lines, even with repeat treatments. So, the effect of repeat treatment with Dysport may be comparable to your first use.
Dysport is used for aesthetic purposes in 47 countries.† In the United States, Dysport was studied for safety in more than 2,400 U.S. patients, and today over 200,000 women and men have been treated with Dysport.
With just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and over the eyebrows, Dysport blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines. You should not be treated with Dysport more frequently than every 90 days.
Treatment with prescription Dysport can temporarily improve the look of your moderate to severe frown lines. Treatment generally takes just 10 to 20 minutes.
