Dermatologist in New York, NY, offers Botox injections for fine lines and wrinkles

Men and women over the age of 25 will slowly begin to notice changes in their skin. It includes skin laxity, which contributes to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle contractions will often develop on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. With cosmetic injectables such as Botox, patients of the New York, NY, area will finally find a nonsurgical solution for wrinkles.

What is Botox?

Dr. Stephen Comite is a board-certified dermatologist in New York who is proud to offer Botox, one of the many cosmetic injectables used in his practice. Botox is a medication formulated with botulinum toxin type A, which can inhibit muscle contractions where injected. Dynamic wrinkles are best improved using Botox injections versus other dermal fillers and collagen stimulators. Botox is injected directly into the muscles of the upper third of the face to reduce the appearance of:

• Forehead folds
• Lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
• Wrinkles around the eyes (crow’s feet)

Botox is FDA-approved for cosmetic use and continues to be a highly requested treatment at Skinprovement Dermatology of New York.

How long do results last

Botox starts to take effect after a few days, with optimum results achieved around the two-week mark. Once the lines smoothen out, the final look is often maintained over several months before the medication loses its effectiveness. To keep the improvements for an extended period, patients will want to have routine touch-up appointments with Dr. Stephen Comite.
