What is BOTOX® Cosmetic?

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a proven, non-surgical approach for reducing facial wrinkles, especially those on the forehead and around the eyes. Led by our highly experienced Dr. Lisa Zdinak, our team provides some of the best in BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments, making Precision Aesthetics one premier aesthetic medical practices in New York City and the world for this sought-after procedure.

How does BOTOX® Cosmetic work?

BOTOX® Cosmetic works by blocking nerve signals in the muscles where it is injected. When those nerve signals are interrupted, the affected muscle is strategically softened, causing wrinkles in the skin above the muscle to smooth out. The result is a fresher, more youthful appearance.

What can BOTOX® Cosmetic treat?

At Precision Aesthetics, we use BOTOX® Cosmetic to address several concerns:

Crow’s feet

BOTOX® Cosmetic can effectively smooth out the fine lines and wrinkles that form around the corners of the eyes, often referred to as “crow’s feet.”

Frown lines

We use BOTOX® Cosmetic to treat the vertical lines between the eyebrows, commonly known as “frown lines” or “11 lines.”

Forehead lines

Horizontal lines on the forehead caused by raising the eyebrows can also be treated with BOTOX® Cosmetic.

What else can BOTOX® Cosmetic do?

BOTOX® Cosmetic is more than just a treatment for wrinkles. Its versatility has made it a staple in the realm of anti-aging treatments, offering a non-surgical solution to a variety of cosmetic concerns, including:

Lip Flip

BOTOX® Cosmetic can be used to perform a “lip flip,” a procedure that subtly shapes the upper lip to appear slightly poutier and more pronounced without adding volume.

Jaw Reduction

For those with a wide or square jawline, BOTOX® Cosmetic can be injected into the masseter muscles (used for chewing) to create a softer, more oval-shaped face.

Gummy Smile Correction

If a high lip line reveals a lot of gum when you smile, BOTOX® Cosmetic can be used to lower the lip line, creating a more balanced smile.

Neck Bands

BOTOX® Cosmetic can be used to relax the platysma muscle in the neck, reducing the appearance of vertical neck bands.

Hyperhidrosis Treatment

BOTOX® Cosmetic can also be used to treat excessive sweating, known as hyperhidrosis. When injected into the underarms, hands, feet, or scalp, BOTOX® Cosmetic blocks the nerves responsible for activating sweat glands.

Chin Dimpling

BOTOX® Cosmetic can smooth out a ‘pebbly’ or dimpled chin by relaxing the mentalis muscle.

Nose Wrinkles

BOTOX® Cosmetic can be used to reduce the appearance of “bunny lines,” the small wrinkles that appear on the sides of the nose when you smile or laugh.

Marionette Lines

These are the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down towards the chin, and they can be softened with BOTOX® Cosmetic.

What to expect?

A typical BOTOX® Cosmetic procedure takes about 10 to 15 minutes and involves a series of small injections. Before the procedure, we will discuss your goals and determine the appropriate treatment areas. You may feel a slight pinch during the treatment, but most patients report minimal discomfort.

Is BOTOX® Cosmetic painful?

BOTOX® Cosmetic injections are typically well-tolerated. Some patients may feel a slight pinching sensation during the injection, but this is usually brief and manageable. The needle used in BOTOX® Cosmetic procedures is very fine and small, making the injections easy to experience.

Recovery time

One of the advantages of our BOTOX® Cosmetic in NYC is that there’s minimal downtime. You can return to your regular activities immediately after the procedure. However, we advise avoiding strenuous exercise, heat exposure, and massaging the treated areas for 24 hours post-treatment.

When will I see the results?

You should start noticing improvements within 24 to 48 hours after the treatment, with the full effect visible after two weeks. The results typically last for three to four months. Regular follow-up treatments can help maintain the effects.

Who is a good candidate for BOTOX® Cosmetic?

BOTOX® Cosmetic is suitable for adults who wish to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. It is also an excellent option for those looking to prevent the formation of new wrinkles. However, pregnant or nursing mothers, individuals with certain neurological diseases, or those allergic to any BOTOX® Cosmetic ingredients should avoid this treatment.

Why choose Precision Aesthetics for BOTOX® Cosmetic?

Dr. Zdinak has over twenty years of experience with BOTOX® Cosmetic and she is a Gold level BOTOX® Cosmetic practitioner trained in advanced BOTOX® Cosmetic techniques. She has used BOTOX in the operating room to correct childhood “strabismus” (crossed eyes) by injecting dilute BOTOX directly into the fragile muscles that move the eyes. She has also mastered the art of using BOTOX to precisely relax the facial muscles of patients suffering from blepharospasm, a neurological condition causing the facial muscles to squeeze for long periods of time, shutting the eyes and thus, causing the patient to be functionally blind.

This expertise and her core understanding of facial anatomy is the foundation upon which she employs advanced injection techniques of BOTOX® Cosmetic to restore harmony to the facial musculature. We believe in a personalized approach to aesthetic medicine. Each patient's facial structure and skin type are unique, and we customize our BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments to suit individual needs and aesthetic goals. Our team is here to guide you through the process, answering any questions and ensuring your comfort throughout the treatment.

I use BOTOX® Cosmetic to restore balance to the facial muscles that are losing the tug-of-war with gravity. Before every BOTOX® Cosmetic session with my patients, I look at the face that they bring to me that day. I do not need to refer to my past treatment records with my patients because I treat the face looking back at me. I use varying strengths of BOTOX® Cosmetic for the different sets of muscles and I have my own technique of injecting the BOTOX® Cosmetic that is precise and essentially painless. I derive a great deal of satisfaction from seeing my patients for their follow-up visits.
