“Botox Review for Crow's Feet - San...”
I had went to the dermatologist because I was unhapppy with the dark circles around my eyes, the deep hollows (sagging) below my eyes, and wrinkles around my eyes. On my first visit I met with an assistant (apparently she is a sales person). She recommended that I try the Ulthera Skin tightening and had told me that if I had the full face and neck treatment ($3600.00) - it would improve the... more
“I Look Like the Devil After Botox -...”
I am 47 and tried botox for the first time. I went to my dermatologist and she spent a lot of time with me. A friend of mine had very good results so I tried it. Lucky for me, my doctor suggested that I try one area first. Within three days my eyebrows dropped and I now have a very sinister look. My lids hooded over and overall, my eyes look a lot smaller. I suddenly realize that I looked... more
I use it to inject into masseter muscle in jaw to reduce TMJ. It works great. I have the injection every 8 months or so, and it really beats having to wear a mouth-guard every night (yuk). Also makes my jaw look a bit less "square" since it relieves the muscle build-up in my jaw muscles. Also makes chewing food easier and more pleasant (less painful). What can I say, for me - it just... more
“Botox Between the Eyebrows Was Good”
Pros:I now look younger than my real age. It didn't hurt and no bruising.Cons: As soon as it was shot in to me, I got severe dry eyes and it lasted for several days.I got botox cuz I had a deep wrinkle between my eyebrow. The result is good. I did this on August 25, 2009 and hope that it can for up to 4 months. more
“Botox is Fantastic! Love, Love Love...”
Love, love, love Botox....it has smoothed out my forehead and crows feet. It just needs to be done on a consistent basis for it to weaken the muscles I think. It worked well for me. Taking care of your skin with other things seems to be important as an adjunct....ie Green Cream (Retinol), Skinceuticals line, Jan Marini etc...and SUNSCREEN! more
“Artistry is Involved with Botox”
Botox is old news but I discovered, having switched to another provider, that placement of the shots is an art and definitely affects my appearance! The first time I had Botox I ended up with the desired, diminished forehead crease but also a brooding look to my face. Despite that, I liked that better than seeing the crease. To my surprise, when I went to a new provider for another... more
Works great. Had 2 dermabrasions years ago which tightened the lines but facial expressions brought them back. Botox is excellent. I went from always looking stressed to having people say how relaxed I look. I do get black and blue marks that last 4-6 days. I hear this is rare. I have started to limit any advil type product a week prior to the... more
“Smooth Forehead After Botox.”
I am a 52 years old woman of Indian origin and i live in LA. I recently got Botox injections after much consiideration and reccomendation of my friends. I had astonishingly hard frown lines all over my forehead and temples. Botox made them disappear within just a day and i was very very happy. The injectons were very mild and relatively painless after the ice that was rubbed on my... more
