Relax Your Wrinkles & Reduce Facial Lines - Botox Scottsdale

Botox can make a big difference in your face in ways, and locations you never thought possible. It can be used to relax existing wrinkles, prevent wrinkles, hide your gums, and even lift your eyebrows. There is no ideal age to start using Botox Cosmetics® and your doctor will advise you if it is going to make a difference in your case.

Yes, absolutely.

Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, and Xeomin contain highly purified proteins that can temporarily slow or stop the muscle contraction that causes your wrinkles. The facial expressions that you constantly make such as laughing, smiling, and frowning contribute to the formation and deepening of your wrinkles. These wrinkles form around your eyes, forehead, between your eyes, and around your lips. As your face moves, those wrinkles get deeper and deeper.

When Botox is introduced into the skin it stops muscle contraction. It not only diminishes and smooths the wrinkles you already have, but it also keeps your facial muscles from contracting for several months, which prevents new wrinkles from forming. View some amazing before and after results.

Our goal is for you to be very comfortable.

Rejuvent offers at no additional cost a topical numbing cream.  The topical numbing cream is specially compounded for Rejuvent by a specialty pharmacy. It is very effective at reducing skin sensation and is recommended for anyone who wishes for a less painful injection experience.

The application of the topical numbing cream does require a longer appointment time of an additional 15 minutes for optimal results.

It varies from patient to patient, but generally speaking, results usually last three and a half to four months.

There are several factors to consider. The most important one is who is administering Botox (or Dysport and Xeomin), as the correct amount in the right area will make a difference. Preparation of the products is also key. Botox comes in powder form and must be reconstituted before it is injected. It is sensitive to heat, excessive agitation, and time.

At Rejuvent the Neuromodulator (Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin) is reconstituted sterilely with preservative-free saline which is the type of saline indicated in the FDA approval of the medication while many offices use preserved saline which can degrade the activity of the Neuromodulator.

At Rejuvent, the Neuromodulator is drawn up by the injecting physician directly before the injection which allows for customized injection doses and patterns that are tailored to each unique face.  To save time, many offices will have more standardization of doses and draw these into syringes before the patients arrive at the office and this method lends itself to having less ability to customize the dosing dependent on what each unique face presents.

Important: Beware of spas and offices that pre-mix their Botox injections as those tend to lose effectiveness. These offices often offer specials marketed as “Botox Days” on Fridays and Mondays and inject Botox that has been previously mixed.

While initial effects with the injection are visible as soon as 3-4 days, you should expect your final Botox results to be achieved 2-3 weeks after injection.

Botox does not affect the nerves that give your face sensation. It will only stop or slow the contraction of your facial muscles. It is very important to be treated by an experienced doctor who can judge the size of your muscles and how much Botox you will need so you do not end up with a frozen look.

At Rejuvent, only Dr. Bomer or Dr. Bouzoukis will perform your Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin injection. They are experts in facial anatomy and Botox injections and will ensure that your concerns are properly addressed for a natural rejuvenated look.

It is an injection technique performed to provide a lift to the brow area. In most cases, we include injection in the forehead along with the brow lift technique for the most natural appearance which provides smoothing of forehead lines in addition to a moderate brow elevation. It helps tired eyes appear more alive and lifts the brow slightly (1mm-2mm).

Just consider this, Botox courses are offered to Non-Surgeon doctors, Nurses, and Medical Assistants, and typically, a certificate is issued in a few hours. These professionals are not familiar with facial anatomy. They can be taught a general area where wrinkle relaxers can be injected, but do they really know the muscles and nerves below the skin?

The most experienced injectors are facial surgeons who actually operate on the target muscles in patients having forehead, brow lifts, eyelids, and facelift surgeries.

Dr. Bomer and Dr. Bouzoukis are both facial plastic surgeons and experts in facial anatomy. They know from the inside out, the mechanisms of muscles, and nerves, and how they behave. The outcome is directly related to the experience and expertise of the individual performing the injection.

Our doctors, Dr. Bomer and Dr. Bouzoukis, and Nurse Linda Esposito use Dr. Bomer’s Botox technique which produces the best results possible – beautiful and natural-looking results. Our patients are very vocal about how happy they are and we would like the opportunity to show you how beautiful your results can be!

Avoid taking aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications – Ibuprofen or similar products (Advil, Motrin, Aleve), St. John’s Wort, Gingko Biloba, Vitamin E, or fish oil supplements 1 week before your treatment. If you require a pain remedy during this time period, it is okay to take Tylenol.

Bruising, if at all, is often minimal and can easily be covered with concealer, but we do recommend that you schedule any social plans accordingly for 7-10 days following your injection.

Botox, Jeuveau, Dysport, and Xeomin are very safe and approved by the FDA.  The most common side effects include swelling or bruising at the injection site, headache or flu-like symptoms. Other side effects are rare but could occur. If you have questions or reservations about wrinkle relaxers the Patient Coordinator or Doctor can discuss your concerns with you.

We recommend that you do not have any type of facial massage or place your face in a face cradle for a massage for 10 days following your injection.
