In addition to surgical cosmetic procedures, Burgess Plastic Surgery also offers facial rejuvenation procedures for lines and wrinkles.
BOTOX® cosmetic is an FDA approved medication used for the treatment of moderate to severe frown lines between patient’s brows. Through small injections directly into the overactive muscles, BOTOX® will work to relax the muscles that cause frown lines, while still allowing you to show expressions. The result is a more rested, youthful-looking appearance that can last up to four months.
During your consultation, Dr. Burgess will assist you in developing an individualized BOTOX® cosmetic plan and determine the exact points to inject to provide the most optimal results. The procedure is quick and normally no anesthesia is required. Some discomfort may be experienced at the site of injection, along with possible swelling, redness or bruising. Full results are evaluated at two weeks following the procedure, but many patients begin to notice a softening of their furrows after 4 days.
Dysport™ is an FDA approved medication used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Since frown lines occur due to facial movements, such as squinting or frowning, they may even develop in younger adults. Through several small injection points, Dysport™ blocks the nerve signal that causes the facial muscles to contract, resulting in a smooth, relaxed look.
