Botox.

"I also use a bunch of Botox just because it is safe, it's trusted, everyone knows the name, and it's predictable. With the neurotoxin taking 2 to 3 weeks to settle in, there's a two to 3 week gray area of things that could happen to any given patient at any given time. During those two to 3 weeks, you might experience some asymmetries just because the Botox takes to certain muscles better than others. Don't freak out. It is normal. We can touch that up in two to three weeks."

"Botox can be very helpful for treating dynamic lines and it's very quick to do, low risk, low downtime, and it's temporary so at the end of the day if you don't like it once it wears off you don't ever have to get it again. I definitely recommend Botox for those who are entertaining and wanting to start aesthetic treatments and improving their facial aging but maybe don't want to invest or are not ready for the bigger stuff like fillers or lasers. Botox can be a great place to start. Just be careful because if you get regular Botox with really heavy doses of it, it could potentially lead to muscle atrophy because you're not using those muscles, which can certainly impact how your face ages, or it can cause overactivity of other muscles that you're not treating and lead to less desired outcomes."

"Injecting Botox into the skin is not going to reverse existing wrinkles. It might make them appear less severe because we're no longer folding the skin, but if you already have static wrinkles in the skin it's not going to get rid of the ones that already exist. It might stop you from being able to form dynamic wrinkles and it's going to prevent new wrinkles from forming so that you don't get more, but if you already have existing wrinkles you need to work with ingredients that are going to stimulate the collagen and elastin in your skin. Botox prevents a wrinkle from setting in or prevents you from making a smile or making a face that causes a wrinkle down the line to happen."
