Is It Possible to Receive Botox Injections in Your Higher Chest Area?

Hi Banwen,
As the other practitioners have pointed out, Botox is not commonly (if at all) used in the chest area. This is because Botox works by relaxing the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles (those affrected by muscle contraction).
In the chest area, you do not have the same type of dynamic wrinkles that are present in the upper face where Botox works well. For this reason, we think you would be better off cosnidering chemical peels or laser treatments. Good luck.

Hi Banwen,
The vertical wrinkle lines in the the chest area respond very well to a series of Fraxel re:store or Fraxel re:pair Lite treatments. The use of good skin care products and sun block should also become a part of your daily regimen. Botox works on wrinkles caused by muscular movement while the chest lines are caused by lax skin. Be well.

Hi there,
Botox works to improve wrinkles by locally and temporarily paralyzing the muscles directly responsible for the wrinkles in question. When wrinkles are caused by other factors rather than muscular contraction--such as sun damage and/or aging, Botox will not be effective. There are now several effective techniques for the improvement of wrinkles in the area of your concern, including skin creams you use at home, and treatments performed in the doctor's office, either by an aesthetician, or a provider. These include various peels and laser treatments (my preferred treatment for this area is a Mixto SX laser treatment). I hope that helps.
