Advanced Botox Techniques: Beyond Basic Wrinkle Reduction
Botox Lip Flip for a Gummy Smile
The Botox Lip Flip procedure is perfect for anyone who wants to reduce the appearance of a gummy smile and achieve the perfect pout. This treatment involves injecting Botox above the upper lip at the center, near the Cupid’s bow. This injection of Botox allows the muscles to relax, causing the upper part of the lip inside the mouth to flip upward and outward. This method of Botox injections is designed to create a fuller, plumper pout in a natural-looking way as opposed to lip fillers that actually add volume.
Most Lip Flip clients see the effects within a few days of the injections, with full results visible in about a week or so. As always, individual results will vary per person. Learn more
TrapTox Botox for the Trap Muscles
TrapTox, also famously referred to as Barbie Botox, is becoming an increasingly popular aesthetic trend thanks to its ability to lengthen and slim the neck. This method of injecting Botox directly into the trapezius muscles creates the appearance of a slender, lean neck. In addition, this procedure is perfect for anyone who deals with tight trap muscles.
DAO Botox
DAO Botox targets the depressor anguli oris muscle in the lower face. This muscle is specifically responsible for creating frown lines. As we age, the DAO muscle weakens, resulting in a permanent downward turn of the mouth. Luckily, regular Botox injections into the DAO muscles can reverse these signs of aging by relaxing these muscles and allowing you to say goodbye to that frown and hello to a more youthful, refreshed appearance. In addition, DAO Botox is also the perfect treatment for reducing lines, wrinkles, and dimples around the injection sites. Learn more
Chin Botox
Chin Botox treatments target chin dimples, sometimes called “orange peel chin.” Dimpling and wrinkling on the chin can sometimes be unavoidable as we age. Botox injections in the chin can help alleviate these wrinkles and lines for a smoother chin free from dimples. During the treatment, the Botox formula limits the movement of the muscles underneath the skin, allowing those responsible for the chin dimpling to relax and the skin of the chin to smooth out. Learn more
Neck Botox for Platysma Bands
If you notice more lines on your neck as you age, Platysma Band Botox can help! Neck Botox is the perfect solution for people noticing an influx in platysma bands as they get older. Botox injections into the neck help smooth the skin of the neck for a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance free from painfully obvious platysma bands. Learn more
Nose Botox for Bunny Lines
Nose Botox is a highly skill-sensitive procedure that is the perfect non-surgical way to perfect the nose by reducing bunny lines and creating the appearance of a more elongated and slenderer nose. Learn more
Underarm Botox for Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating can significantly hinder your life, not to mention embarrassment. Botox is the first FDA-approved injectable capable of treating this disorder, preventing excessive sweating, and allowing you to live free from the embarrassment of sweaty armpits. Underarm Botox injects into the glands responsible for producing sweat, temporarily paralyzing them so they do not overproduce sweat, leaving you feeling dry, fresh, clean, and comfortable!
