BOTOX Cosmetic in Southern California

An age-defying muscle relaxant that allows your natural facial expressions to come through

Your BOTOX Cosmetic results depend on the well-developed aesthetic eye, refined skill, artistic precision, and extensive knowledge in the facial anatomy of the practitioner who delivers it. Here at Andrew Smith MD FACS, we do not use BOTOX & Neurotoxins to alter your appearance. Instead, we use them conservatively to enhance and highlight your natural beauty.

The World’s #1 Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Procedure

Because of its well-established safety profile, high success rates, real-time results, and diverse clinical and cosmetic applications, BOTOX has been a leading non-surgical cosmetic procedure since its introduction in 1981. Allow us to break down our process to help you understand how Orange County BOTOX and other neurotoxins work.

Botulinum Toxin Type A and What It Can Do for You

Botulinum toxin type A is an FDA-approved injectable neurotoxin, commonly known under brand names such as BOTOX Cosmetic® and Dysport®. Indeed, a transformative treatment like no other, injectable neurotoxins in Southern California is among our most popular single cosmetic clinical procedures for addressing dynamic wrinkles. Botulinum toxin type A works by obstructing nerve impulses to the muscles, causing them to relax. As a result, your facial expressions soften and your dynamic wrinkles are reversed.

Wrinkles That BOTOX-type Injectables Can Treat

We utilize our cosmetic muscle relaxers in a specific fashion, treating dynamic wrinkles that develop because of the facial movements or expressions we make every day. That being said, our practitioners use botulinum toxin injections to correct:

• Vertical forehead lines (Glabellar “frown” lines)
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Glabellar lines between the eyebrows
• Periorbital folds (crow’s feet or squint lines)
• Upper lip lines (smokers lips)
• Lower lip lines (marionette lines)
• Chin lines (chin dimpling or mental creases)
• Neck lines (platysmal bands or “turkey neck”)

A highly skilled practitioner such as Dr. Smith and our licensed MedSpa specialists can also use BOTOX-type injectables to elevate the height of your eyebrows, thereby opening up your eyes to achieve an overall “lifted” look.

Your Procedure at Andrew Smith MD FACS

By using precise injection techniques to administer BOTOX-type medications into your skin, our practitioners can achieve the following:

• Deliver cosmetic muscle relaxers with zero to minimal discomfort.
• Effectively block nerve transmission to specific muscles, preventing them from contracting and creating wrinkles in your face, or lines around your neck.

Furthermore, with extensive training and several years of experience under our belts, we can relax target muscles while keeping your expressive muscles active. This means that you can still laugh to your heart’s content without looking “frozen” or creating unsightly wrinkles.

BOTOX vs. Dysport

Here at Andrew Smith MD FACS in Irvine, CA — we offer two muscle relaxers: BOTOX Cosmetic® and Dysport®. These injectable neurotoxins represent the highest standard of cosmetic excellence and are sometimes considered “cousins.” When you come to us for BOTOX in Orange County, we will review both products to accurately determine which is best for your unique case.

Whether BOTOX or Dysport is the injectable we use, the success of your treatment depends on administering the right amount of product with a refined approach to create stunning results. At our MedSpa, Orange County clients are confident knowing their procedure will be done by our licensed and trained professionals in botulinum toxin injections.

How Dysport or BOTOX Benefits You
