The benefits of BOTOX®
A Denver favorite plastic surgeon Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Jeffrey Raval can make you look and feel younger instantly with Botox® injections that take years off your face and erase wrinkles from your forehead and eyes. This non-surgical procedure, also called non-invasive, relieves facial wrinkles, particularly the wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyes and the crow’s feet area around the eyes. Botox is used on the upper one-third of the face.
Botox is strictly for wrinkles caused by the use of underlying facial muscles. Over time, creases in the brow area develop between the eyes caused by muscles for squinting, glaring or frowning. Also crow’s feet creases develop around the eyes caused by squinting, laughing, and crying. On the forehead lines of wrinkles develop, caused by a number of animated facial expressions of surprise, incredulousness, and worry.
If you have wrinkles on your forehead, between your eyes, or crow’s feet around your eyes, you are a candidate for Botox injections. You are a candidate if you have wrinkles in any area where there is muscle because Botox numbs the ability of the underlying muscle to tense up causing wrinkles. BOTOX is not recommended for use on the lower two thirds of the face or where there are no underlying muscles under the skin or epidermis.
BOTOX was approved by the FDA for use in cosmetic procedures in 2002. Within 5 short years, Botox became the most common cosmetic procedure, with 4.6 million patient treatments performed in the United States, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Qualifications for Botox injectors vary by county, state and country. Jeffrey Raval, MD, FACS is a National Educator Physician and Trainer for the use of Botox Cosmetic.
Board certified by the American Board, Dr. Raval’s offices are located in Denver, Colorado in Cherry Creek North where he has Raval Facial Aesthetics and Rocky Mountain Laser Aesthetics at 250 Steele St., Denver, CO 80206.
