Botox -- New Orleans Facial Plastic Surgeon Explains How It Works

http://www.drvongraham.com

New Orleans facial injectable specialist H. Devon Graham III, M.D., F.A.C.S. explains how Botox® is performed and its effects. A muscle blocker, Botox intercepts the nerve signal to the treated area in order to stop movement. Blocking the muscle movement helps prevent further wrinkling and creasing of the facial skin, creating a smoother, more rejuvenated appearance.

Some of the most common areas to be treated include the frown lines in the forehead, between the brows, and crow's feet (around the eyes). The effects of Botox can last from four to six months, at which point patients may return for additional facial injections. However, as with all medical procedures, it is important to be aware of Botox side effects and risks; although a rare occurrence when under Dr. Graham's care, a "frozen" appearance may results. This can be due to excess use or an adverse reaction to the treatment.
