Botox for undereye lines

Andres Bustillo, MD answers: Botox for under eye and upper lip lines?

I have two lines under the eyes, but not big bags. I was told I can have Botox just under the skin there. I also have little lines on my top lip and was told that tiny amounts of Botox can also be injected there. Are these correct? Does anyone have any experiences for this procedure? Thank you.

Dizzy chick,

Botox can be used to help smooth the small lines on the lower eyelid. Results vary, but generally the lines do diminish with treatment.As for the vertical lines around the upper lip, commonly called smokers lines, these can be filled in with fillers such as Restylane. Again results vary, but the lines do diminish with treatment. As with all cosmetic treatments, make sure your board certified physician is comfortable and has experience with the procedure.
