A little about Botox®, Juvéderm™ and Dr.
William P. Mack, M.D., P.A.
Juvéderm™:
From the creators of Botox® Cosmetics, Juvéderm™ is the first FDA
approved injectable gel dermal filler. Juvéderm™ is made up of
hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in your skin that
helps to add volume and hydration, and that will deliver a smooth
and natural feel. Juvéderm™ can be used to add volume, diminish
wrinkles and folds, and helps hydrate the skin. This temporary
filler adds volume to facial tissue and restores a smoother
appearance to the face for up to 6 months or longer. Juvéderm™ is
perfect for the nasolabial folds—the creases that run from the
bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth. Juvéderm™
treatments can be administered safely and comfortably in the spa
setting under topical or local anesthesia.
Botox®
injections are used to treat dynamic wrinkles caused by contractions
of the underlying facial muscles during facial expression, such as
smiling or frowning. Dr. Mack uses Botox® for cosmetic treatment of
frown lines and crows feet; as well as conditions known as essential
blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm. Botox® treatment works by
chemically relaxing the facial muscles that are related to facial
expression. This results in a more youthful appearance as the Botox®
smooths the dynamic wrinkles.
Treatments are performed in the office by Dr. Mack as a very small
amount of Botox® is injected with a microneedle into several areas
of the face. No anesthesia is required and patients are able to
drive themselves home following the procedure. The most common side
effect is temporary bruising at the site of the injection. Botox®
treatments typically last for 3 to 4 months.
