BOTOX injections can significantly enhance your look when performed by a true master of the art. BOTOX is among the most popular of all injectables worldwide, and for good reason. The product works to smooth away lines and creases by limiting nerve signals to overactive facial muscles. Injections must be delivered with ultimate care and precision to achieve the most natural look, and when under the care of Dr. Maura Reinblatt, our double board-certified plastic surgeon, you can expect our Botox in Greenwich to help you appear refreshed, natural, and like you – allowing you to look your best.
To be a good candidate for BOTOX, you should be between 18 and 65 years of age, generally healthy, and not pregnant or breastfeeding. Most people are candidates, but to ensure your safety, we will speak with you about your medical history and advise you of any risks before your procedure.
BOTOX was first FDA approved in 2002, and since that time has become one of the most widely used injectables. It is very safe and exceptionally effective. The active ingredient in BOTOX works by limiting the nerve signals to specifically selected muscle strands, causing them to relax, thereby smoothing the overlying skin. With regular injections, typically three or four times per year, the overlying skin restores, with the creases and lines fading away, leaving you looking well-rested, restored, and more youthful.
Depending on what you want to achieve, the treatment generally takes less than half an hour to complete. A numbing cream can be applied before the injections to make the experience more comfortable. Then the BOTOX is injected into precisely selected areas in a series of injections. Once complete, you can return to your regular activities, whether work or play. You may see a reddened look at the injection sites, which can be hidden with makeup and fade quickly.
BOTOX in Greenwich, when under the care of Dr. Maura Reinblatt, can achieve several outcomes, including:
You do not have to worry about recovery time with BOTOX. The only side effects could be minor swelling or bruising at the injection sites. Avoid lying down for several hours, high heat, and do not massage the treatment area to allow the product to integrate into the tissues as intended.
Many of your friends and colleagues may rely on BOTOX injections to maintain a more youthful look, but when performed by our expert, double-board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Maura Reinblatt, the results will appear natural, not overdone or frozen – it is all in the injection technique and the breadth of knowledge and experience of your injector. Every procedure is performed with ultimate precision and care, with the goal of leaving you looking refreshed, healthy, and more youthful.
