  • Sometimes Botox is Not Enough

    If you have deep lines between your eyebrows, sometimes called the elevens, and you’ve had Botox injections and you still have a hint of a line or even a deep line what can you do about it? In my office I first inject Botox and see how much of an effect it will have. I have my patient return 10 days to two weeks later for the full effect.

So it does require two procedures and an added expense but that’s what happens when the lines are deeper. At least there is a solution!

I also try to spend a good deal of time with these patients discussing every aspect of their treatment. In addition, we discuss the importance of diet. There was a study sent to me from Italy that looks at over 200 young people with acne, which I found very interesting. Those who consumed the lowest quantity of fruits, vegetables and fish were more prone to getting acne. This further confirms what I’ve been saying all along.
