Botox/Dysport

Botox and Dysport are toxins produced by a bacteria called C. Botulinum. Botox and Dysport have been used for over 15 years to treat variety of medical conditions. The wrinkles caused by overactive facial muscles and repetitive facial expressions are called dynamic wrinkles. They include frown lines, crow's feet, forehead wrinkles and lip wrinkles. Botox can dramatically improve and often eliminate these wrinkles.

Dr. Marcovici uses the smallest available needle in the market called the "Gucci Needles". Most people experience no pain whatsoever, though some may experience brief, mild discomfort as they are being injected. You should not be treated with Botox® Cosmetic if you have an infection at the proposed injection site. Patients with certain neurological disorders such as ALS, Myasthenia Gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome may be at an increased risk of serious side effects.

Botox/Dysport  has shown positive results in the following areas:

A) Face:

• Frown lines
• Crow's feet
• Forehead creases
• Brow shaping (Botox/Dysport injections can be used to alter the shape of the eyebrows to create a more aesthetically pleasing appearance)
• Brow elevation (lift)
• Correction of eyebrow asymmetry (to elevate the lower eyebrow to the same level as the higher eyebrow)
• Elevation of the corners of the mouth
• Upper/lower lip creases
• Marionette lines or "drool grooves"

B) Neck Rejuvenation: Vertical neckbands (turkey neck)

C) Chest Rejuvenation: Women may exhibit wrinkling of the central mid chest (décolleté)

D) Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Perspiration): Botox and Dysport injections have proven to be very useful in diminishing excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). Hyperhidrosis is a common and extremely distressing condition with a prevalence of 2.8% of the population.
