Frozen Botox: Beyond Freezing Wrinkles

Worth It
Spent: $500 in San Francisco

I've had Botox injected into my brow and crow's feet area for years.

I sought the treatment of Botox to alleviate stress headaches in the muscles directly above the eyebrows, to lessen a vertical wrinkle between my eyes, and to also lessen my crow's feet.

I am moving from sunny California to frigid Fairbanks, Alaska. Does the sub-zero temperature negatively affect the Botox that has been injected? I cannot imagine that -40 below zero weakens the effects of the Botox.

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.

Helpful review?

My Doctor: Seth L. Matarasso, MD

My rating:

This dermatologist is amazingly skilled: the overall results look natural, and my stress headaches are eliminated.

Question: Frozen BOTOX® : Beyond Freezing Wrinkles. Answer: BOTOX ® is successfully administered in Alaska. I do not feel that the colder climate should negatively impact the results of BOTOX®. Even in Alaska, you should not be exposing your skin to sub-zero temperatures for any length of time.
I agree with Dr Sigmund. Your skin should not be exposed to such cold temperatures otherwise you would get frostbite.
The Botox is injected under the dermis of the skin and it would be protected by the natural temperature regulation of the skin.
