Botox® Update:

Botox®, for one reason or another, is always making news. The latest appearance concerns the development of a more permanent solution to wrinkles, which claims to do away with Botox® altogether.

While the downside is that this plastic surgery treatment is more invasive than Botox®, i.e. it requires a surgery to erase the lines between the brows. But unlike the non-invasive injectable, the surgery permanently does away mild wrinkles and improves deeper lines to a considerable degree.

With injectable fillers like Botox®, Myobloc, etc. the wrinkles that occur in the brow area are numbed for just a small period after which they re-appear. Continual administration of these fillers is necessary to maintain the effect.

Plastic surgery, as a practice, is still evolving. New developments are constantly analyzed and repeatedly tested to ensure safety during their implementation. Before taking up a medical practitioner or a cosmetic surgery expert on any offer for a newly developed procedure it is vital that patients do a background check.

You can get in touch with the Plastic Surgery Institute of California at clinics located in Newport Beach, Pasadena, Beverly Hills and Huntington Beach for unbiased information on any new procedure you may have heard about. If it is a board approved procedure, we can let you know. If not, we make sure you know that as well.
