Botox for wrinkles and fine lines: Gilbert Perfect Skin Laser Center

Botox injections are among the most common procedures performed here at Gilbert Perfect Skin. Botox is a purified protein that temporarily weakens muscular contractions at the injection site. Because these excessive muscular contractions are the cause of wrinkles, decreasing this action will soften the look of fine lines.

Without Botox, wrinkles continue to deepen, causing shadows and trapping makeup. By starting Botox injections sooner than later, even deep lines can look softer over time!

The most common Botox treatment area is between the eyes called the glabella. Some people refer to these lines as "elevens". These wrinkles become noticable when an individual draws the brows together when concerned, angry, or squinting. Treatment with just 20-30 units of Botox for women, and 35-55 units for men usually relaxes this area nicely.

Many people appear tired or angry when they talk and make facial expressions - this is due to involuntary, excessive facial muscular contractions!! Patients frequently state that friends will ask if they are more rested or have been on vacation after Botox treatments!

Wrinkles around the outer eyes are called "crows feet", and occur from smiling or squinting. For many patients, softening these lines can make them look much younger. Most patients require 10-30 units of Botox Cosmetic for both sides. So go ahead and smile!!

Is your forehead looking like a grille?? Most people have this area treated with their glabella for a more complete look. Using just an extra 6-20 units of Botox with the area between the eyes can really soften that entire forehead!

Those small lines around the mouth called "smokers lines" are bothersome to many people, and even patients who do NOT smoke. Just a small Botox treatment above the upper lip can control these unattractive wrinkles! Usually just 3-6 units per Botox treatment is enough to calm these wrinkles. This treatment is a must when using laser to resurface around the lips.

Botox for Brow Lift

For some patients at Gilbert Perfect Skin, a small injection of Botox at the brow can give a subtle lift that can make the eyes appear more wide open. Typically, 5 units per brow is all that is needed to give just a bit of lift!!

Botox for Brows Too High

Some people feel that their brows are too high, or "Spock" like. This can be easily treated with just a few units into the forehead!

Botox for Underarm Sweating

Are you embarrassed to lift your arms? Are your armpits wet and uncomfortable most of the time? You may have tried every deodorant and anti-perspirant available including prescription strength Drysol. This excessive sweating is termed "hyperhidrosis" and is easily treated with Botox. Your treatment will start with 50 units per underarm. At one month, you may return to the office if you need more. Most patients require beteen 100 and 150 units of Botox for about 6-7 months of decreased sweating. Imagine no more wet spots on your best shirts!! Cost is $900 for 100 units.
