Who doesn’t want to look younger longer? With BOTOX® Cosmetic, an FDA-approved treatment, this is now possible with minimal down time and consistent results. It is the most- effective treatment to temporarily diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by paralyzing the muscles underneath.

BOTOX® Cosmetic Interestingly enough, is derived from a bacterium! Clostridium Botulinum was developed to treat muscle spasms, given its ability to freeze them. BOTOX® Cosmetic is used to treat:

• Frown lines: sometimes called “scowl lines” or “worry lines”. These are the lines seen between the eyes and on the bridge of the nose.
• Crow’s feet: wrinkles around the eyes
• Facial and forehead wrinkles
• Lines at the corners of the mouth
• “Cobblestone” skin on the chin

BOTOX® Cosmetic also can be used for the bands that develop underneath the chin and extend to the neck. BOTOX® Cosmetic is also used by Dr. Tebyanian to treat migraine headaches, bruxism (tooth grinding) and some facial pain syndromes.

All injections are performed by Dr. Tebyanian in the office in a comfortable setting.. The number of injections required varies with the degree of wrinkling. The effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic begin between 24-72 hours and the effect lasts an average of 3 months. There is some evidence that after several, repeated injections, the effects last longer.
