Botox injections to frown muscles, forehead lines and brows by Dr. BCK Patel MD, FRCS of Salt Lake City and St. George
Nice improvement in the severe frown lines ("elevenses") and also in the height of the brows with botox in a patient in her late 40s. Notice the improvement in her skin with the use of lasers

Which parts of the face does botox work best on?

​Botox has become one of the most popular cosmetics treatments sought in the USA. Although the term "Botox" is widely used, the products used are varied and include Botox, Dysport, Myobloc, Xeomin, Jeuveua and others. Cosmetically, any of these products are used for one or more of the following reasons:
  • frown lines between brows ("elevenses")
  • frown line across the bridge of the nose
  • smile lines
  • forehead lines
  • crow's feet
  • bunny lines
  • raise the corner of the mouth (improve the "frowny" mouth)
  • improve the jawline (the vampire lift)
  • improve neck platysma bands
  • make subtle changes in the position of the upper and lower eyelids
  • improving the fullness caused by the masseter muscles (round face to oval face change)
​

Besides cosmetic applications, how else is botox useful?

Botox is also used for other medical conditions:
  • treating migraine
  • treating excessive sweating
  • decreasing sweating
  • treating blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm
  • treating aberrant nerve regeneration after Bell's palsy

Commonly asked questions about when to start botox and when is it too early or too late?

​Common questions we are asked are:
  • "what is the right age to start?"
  • "am I too young to start with botox?"
  • "should I have started earlier?"
  • "am I too far gone with my wrinkles to benefit from botox?"
  • "will the botox get rid of all my lines?"
  • "why do I have to keep on repeating the injections of botox?"
A more recent development is the use of Botox as a preventative measure to decrease the development of wrinkles and lines. Here are all the answers to all your questions about botox and preventative botox in Salt Lake City and St. George, Utah.
