botox cosmetic BOTOX® is a highly purified, naturally occurring protein which is injected into specific muscle with a very fine point needle. It has the ability to very precisely relax the muscles to which it is applied. This relaxation lasts for a number of months after which the treated muscles gradually return to their original condition. BOTOX® does not affect the sensory nerves in the skin, so there is no numbness in the treated areas.

BOTOX® treatments can be stopped at any time with no permanent effects on your appearance. If you have

BOTOX® treatments for several years, you may find that the muscles will take longer to return to their original condition, leading to some improvement in your fine lines and wrinkles, particularly if you are careful to protect your skin from sun exposure and smoke.

fillers Fillers like Restylane™, Perlane™, Juvederm & Teosyal, collagen (Zyplast™ and Zyderm™), Artecoll™ and other products fill creases, lips, cheekbones, and also defects like acne scars. Sometimes BOTOX® is used in combination with fillers when treating certain areas where permanent deep lines have resulted from over activity of the muscles e.g. some frown lines on the lower forehead or wrinkles around the lips.

acne treatment Acne is a common medical condition that affects upto 80 percent of adolescents & adults at some point in their lives. It is caused by a bacteria know as Corynaebactrium Acne. The bacterium grows in the blocked sebaceous glands of the skin and causes Acne. These bacteria release molecules called porphyrins. When these porphyrins are exposed to certain wavelength of light they produce free radicals that kill the bacteria.

Blu-U light therapy involves use of visible blue wavelength of light with Levulan. The Levulan (aminolevulinic acid) helps increase photosensivity & the Blu-light activates a toxic environment inside the pores and kills the acnecausing bacteria. Once the P.acne bacterium is removed, inflammation diminishes & acne clears up.
chemical peels Skin is a dynamic organ. Everyday cells divide at the basal layer of the epidermis & begin their journey upward to the uppermost layer, the stratum corneum. As new cells continue to grow, old cells from the stratum corneum slough off. This exfoliation of cells is a normal daily event. Chemical peeling is basically an accelerated form of exfoliation induced by the use of chemical peeling agents. The aim is to create as little tissue death as possible while inducing as much new tissue formation as possible.
microdermabrasion Men & women of all ages share a common desire to have healthy and youthful skin.

Sun exposure and the aging process take their toll on the skin, creating lines, wrinkles, and causing changes in texture and color of the skin. Not only is the face, but the neck, chest, cleavage, arms and hands may be affected as well. Microdermabrasion can reduce the effects of aging on our skin.

Diamondtome Microdermabrasion is a non-surgical, exfoliating treatment that improves wrinkles, skin color& texture by removing the topmost layer of skin leaving it more supple and vibrant. It stimulates the collagen tissue beneath the surface of the skin resulting in a healthier and firmer appearance.
photo rejuvenation Intensed Pulsed Light provides unparalleled performance & results for clients with photo damaged skin, unwanted fine lines & wrinkles, age spots (sun induced freckles), most benign brown pigments, broken capillaries & the redness or erythema of rosacea. It also improves skin laxity & skin texture virtually painlessly.

Photo rejuvenation uses energy from the Cutera Xeo IPL 560 laser. Laser energy penetrates without damaging the superficial layers of the skin. Cells containing excessive concentration of pigment absorb this energy. This absorbed energy stimulates your skin to disintegrate and eliminate the unwanted excessive pigment while having little or no effect on other tissues or on your normal skin color.
photo facials For a more even complexion, Advanced Foto facial skin rejuvenation treatment is a series of Intense Pulsed Light treatments that can be performed on the face, neck, hands or body.

This treatment also improves mild acne scars, redness, and large pores. It minimizes dark circles around the eyes & reduces fine lines.

A pleasant side effect of BOTOX® treatment to the forehead, eyebrows, and crow's feet is the reduction or elimination of headaches & excessive sweating.

Botox Therapeutic™ for headaches

BOTOX® has been found to give relief to Migraine sufferers. The treatment of severe headaches really belongs to neurologists, not cosmetic physicians. But BOTOX® for helping migraine is gaining acceptance.

Clients with headaches have confirmed that Botox Therapeutic™ treatment often reduces the frequency and intensity of muscle tension headaches and also some migraine headaches.

Clients generally experience improvement within a few days, sometimes enjoy several months of relief from headaches, and are able to greatly reduce (and in some cases eliminate) headache medications. Many drug plans pay for the treatment because it can reduce consumption of medications and allows clients to avoid missing work. Many clients notice that the effect of the treatment lasts longer with every consecutive treatment, if they repeat their Botox Therapeutic as soon as they feel the effect of their last injection is declining.

Procedure

Each point which you can identify as being associated with your headaches will be injected, usually starting at 5 to 10 units in each point. In other cases, it is more effective to treat larger areas (for example, the forehead and sides of the scalp) with a total of 75-100 units, or as much as 150 units, if the posterior scalp and neck are also treated.

Botox Therapeutic™ is also used for the treatment of temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ) discomfort, and bruxism. In these cases, it is injected into the masseter muscles.

Botox Therapeutic™ to control excessive sweating

Botox Therapeutic™ is frequently used to control hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) of the armpits and palms, and occasionally other parts of the body. One person out of 100 has a serious problem with excessive sweating. It usually starts in childhood or adolescence, and can occur within families. Excessive sweating is caused by a reflex reaction of the nervous system and it cannot be controlled by the person. Excessive sweating can be brought on by stress or heat, but often there is no specific cause which can be identified.

Botox Therapeutic™, unlike antiperspirants and other topical treatments for excessive sweating, targets sweating at its source. It is injected into specific glands responsible for excessive sweating and blocks the release of a chemical which causes the production of excess perspiration.

In clinical studies, 95% of clients experienced improvement after just one week, with sweating reduced by an average of 83%. One out of two clients report relief of excessive sweating for more than 7 months after one treatment only. More than 1/3rd of clients experience relief for one year. Botox Therapeutic ™ does not stop you from perspiring normally, so overheating is not a concern. Both armpits can be treated at the same time, as it is easy to treat armpits and no anesthetic is usually needed.

Procedure
Before your Botox Therapeutic™ treatment, a simple iodine solution will be applied to the area of excessive sweating. This solution is allowed to dry, and then powdered starch (of the sort found in most kitchens) is sprinkled on the area. Where there is excess sweating, the moisture of the sweat allows starch to combine with iodine, producing a dark blue color.

This starch-iodine test indicates the precise areas of excess sweating, and allows us to concentrate the Botox Therapeutic™ treatment where it is needed, reducing both the number of injections and your costs. The blue marks from the starch-iodine test will be wiped off after your Botox Therapeutic™ treatment.

Results
After Botox Therapeutic™ treatment, excess sweating starts to decrease within a couple of days, and the full effect in reached in a week or two. The goal of Botox Therapeutic™ is reduction of sweating to a normal level, but not total elimination of sweating to the point where the treated area becomes abnormally dry.
