BOTOX® Cosmetic

 

 

Dr. Cruise's philosophy regarding BOTOX® Cosmetic

 

BOTOX® Cosmetic is an extremely effective tool within the armamentarium of plastic surgery. I say this because not only is it effective at improving dynamic wrinkles but for the group of patients that do not want surgery it is an excellent alternative.

 

I like BOTOX® Cosmetic because it is an excellent adjunct to plastic surgery procedures as well as effective alone. It is the first line of treatment for the forehead and peri-ocular wrinkles that are made worse by facial expressions. As you age, these muscles become more prominent. Thus, during normal facial aging these wrinkles become particularly noticeable.

 

BOTOX® Cosmetic can be used in all age groups. In fact, I believe by using BOTOX® Cosmetic in the late 20's and early 30s to treat dynamic wrinkles you can delay the onset of permanent wrinkles. By paralyzing the muscles, wrinkles are not created in the first place or at least their onset is delayed. Also, I have found that repeated injections over time creating prolonged paralysis of the incriminating muscles can actually cause those muscles to fade away. In effect, this may result in a permanent improvement.
