Why Bay Area, CA patients may seek Botox injections as an anti-aging solution
Anyone who has experienced the signs of aging may have considered the benefits of undergoing cosmetic injectables such as Botox. Patients in and around the Bay Area in CA can use Botox injections as a way to reduce wrinkles and folds that occur due to muscle activity. Botox is often administered on the upper portion of the face to address lines and wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes (crow’s feet).
Botox is a very safe aesthetic treatment when administered by a professional, trusted doctor such as Dr. Christine Lee. Dr. Christine Lee is a board certified dermatologist who has years of experience with facial injections, laser therapies, and many other procedures that benefit the skin and body. She sees many patients in her practice who are seeking a less invasive anti-aging solution compared to plastic surgery and often find Botox is the most affordable, effective option for them.
Botox is made of botulinum toxin type A which is safe to use to reduce muscle contractions. It is injected directly into the muscles that are used to raise the eyebrows, frown, and smile. Within a few days, Botox begins to block the nerve endings of the muscles to relax and soften small lines and wrinkles. Botox can last anywhere from two to nine months. When the medication wears off, the wrinkles will return, which is why Dr. Christine Lee recommends patients schedule regular visits for injections to maintain the results for an extended period and eliminate the possibility of relapse.
Dr. Christine Lee and the team of The Skin and Laser Treatment Institute are committed to assisting area patients with various methods of addressing the signs of aging. When fine lines and wrinkles occur, patients may be faced with injectables and laser therapies to help maintain their youthful appearance. During an initial consultation and examination appointment with Dr. Christine Lee, patients can learn about the many ways her team can assist in rejuvenating the face and maintaining an attractive appearance for years to come!
