Botox	Dysport

Individuals who experience signs of aging often search for methods to reduce the appearance of these unwanted features. Botox and Dysport can be used to improve several problem areas.

Cosmetic Uses Of Botox:

1. The "11" wrinkles, or folds between your eyebrows
2. Smile lines
3. Wrinkles around eyes that extend into your eyelids
4. Forehead wrinkles
5. Cheek wrinkles
6. Downward turn at the corners of your mouth
7. Neck bands

Other Conditions:

1. Excess sweating
2. Headaches
3. Muscle spasms

Cosmetically, Botox and Dysport are used to treat lines and wrinkles that are created by muscle movement. These can make you look older, concerned, or unhappy. Injecting Botox or Dysport allows these muscles to relax. Once they relax, the lines and wrinkles decrease, usually lasting from about three to six months. For others, lines and wrinkles may completely disappear. Results vary from patient to patient as each individual has a unique facial anatomy.

An added benefit to receiving injections is that patients may return to their regular activities immediately following their procedure. Results will gradually appear over the days following these non-surgery cosmetic treatments.

When Botox or Dysport is used for headaches the response can vary. Some patients report a dramatic improvement while others report no improvement.

The best way to determine if Botox or Dysport is an appropriate choice is by scheduling an appointment at Dr. Carniol's practic. Located in the Medical Arts Center, it is attached to Overlook Hospital in Summit, New Jersey, and can be easily reached from Interstates 78 and 24.
