Any time you show emotion on your face, you contract the muscles: smile, laugh, frown, confusion, surprise, etc. These contractions over time produce permanent lines and sometimes deep wrinkles in the skin, especially around the eyes, mouth, forehead and between the eyebrows. These lines can give your face the appearance of sadness, anger, weariness or just plain aging. BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments can help to erase those signs of aging and also help prevent the lines from deepening during natural facial movements, leaving you looking more refreshed and young.
What can BOTOX® Cosmetic do for me?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is one of the most requested services at Dr. Fiorillo’s three New York and New Jersey locations. It’s the most popular procedure in the country. It is quick, safe and effective at reducing or eliminating facial lines and wrinkles for up to six months. There is no downtime and little to no discomfort. BOTOX® Cosmetic gives you a rejuvenated look through a series of tiny injections, by smoothing crow’s feet by the eyes, frown lines between eyebrows, wrinkling in the forehead, worry lines around the mouth and lines on the neck.
BOTOX® also may be useful in treating migraine headaches, excessive sweating, chronic back, jaw pain, and muscle spasms.

How is the procedure performed?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is injected into designated facial or neck muscles utilizing a very fine needle. You may experience some brief, mild discomfort during the injection, but the treatment is very safe and effective. The procedure takes only a few minutes and requires no anesthetic; recovery is immediate, allowing you to return to your normal daily activities the same day.

What is the recovery from BOTOX® Cosmetic like?
There may be some mild bruising immediately after the procedure. This is only temporary and will subside shortly following the procedure. Wrinkles will start fading within 24 hours, with continued improvement over the next five days. The treatment usually lasts up to four months, although some patients report it lasting up to a full year. After several treatments, the results may be prolonged.
