To diminish the effects of aging and to prevent lines, wrinkles, and lax skin from forming on the forehead and upper face, A Woman Plastic Surgeon in Metairie offers BOTOX to local patients. This facial rejuvenation procedure provides amazing results and is popular among both men and women.
BOTOX can make a dramatic enhancement to dynamic facial wrinkles, which are the result of expressions and movement with the muscles contracting on the forehead. The lines disappear as the face relaxes, but dynamic creases can still exist. BOTOX is a purified strain of botulinum toxin (type A) that temporarily blocks the movements of the underlying tissue and muscle. To diminish the appearance of these dynamic lines and wrinkles, BOTOX is injected to relax and soften the skin. This specific injection is most commonly placed by New Orleans plastic surgeon, Dr. Cynthia Mizgala between the brows where the number "11" appears, on the Crow's feet, and throughout the forehead.

BOTOX is used for individuals who hope to diminish and soften the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, lines, and moderate folds on their face in a nonsurgical way. BOTOX is often thought of as a preventive treatment, even if static wrinkles have not yet formed — keep in mind how often you tend to make facial expressions.
It is an effective, nonsurgical solution if you have obvious forehead lines or frown lines between the brows. It's also a solution for Crow's feet around the eyes. If you have deeper lines, a combination of BOTOX and a filler may be a better option. Also, if you are older with moderate to severe skin laxity, you may be a candidate for a facelift. This offers a more dramatic result and it is meant to last years. A Woman Plastic Surgeon offers various facelifts, blepharoplasty, and brow lifts as great options.
Improvements from BOTOX can last up to four months. Most New Orleans BOTOX patients schedule a visit every season to sustain their results, but you may come back sooner. If you are getting BOTOX while you are younger as a preventive treatment, you may be able to schedule visits further apart. After listening to your goals and forming your treatment plan, Dr. Mizgala will be able to estimate when you should schedule your next appointment.
Wrinkle relaxers (like BOTOX) and wrinkle fillers (like Juvéderm and Restylane) are both treatments that improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. BOTOX relaxes overused facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, like frown lines (between the eyebrows), Crow's feet (in the outer corner's of the eyes), forehead wrinkles, and smile lines. Dermal fillers add volume under the skin to correct hollow areas and decrease fine lines throughout your face. Based on your goals, Dr. Mizgala may recommend BOTOX, fillers, or a combination of both for a "liquid facelift."
BOTOX, Dysport, and Xeomin are brands of injectable wrinkle relaxers that use botulinum toxin (type A). They all relax facial muscles to improve dynamic wrinkles, but each formula is designed to suit specific areas and needs. There are subtle differences between them, including the amount in each dose, treatment spread, and length of results. Dr. Mizgala will choose the best one to achieve your goals.
When applied properly, BOTOX rarely causes any complications. With that said, it is important to choose someone who has experience and training in handling this medication, like Dr. Mizgala. Over injecting BOTOX can give you an undesirable outcome. A skilled injector will use just enough of the medication to effectively freeze the muscles that cause wrinkles while leaving nearby muscles unaffected. One of the most popular cosmetic treatments on the market today, BOTOX is safe and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In addition to cosmetic uses, BOTOX is also used to treat medical issues, including facial spasms, excessive sweating, uncontrollable blinking, and migraines.
The total cost for BOTOX injections will depend on how much product is used. This will vary based on your needs and goals. During your consultation for BOTOX New Orleans plastic surgeon Dr. Mizgala will form your personal treatment plan before she can estimate your costs.
BOTOX can produce impressive results when performed by a skilled plastic surgeon, like Dr. Mizgala, but it can be unsafe if done by someone without training, which is why it's better to avoid places offering cheap or knock-off injections. To save money, ask about the Brilliant Distinctions Rewards Program so you can start earning points for BOTOX and other Allergan products, like Juvéderm.
BOTOX injectable treatments are performed as an outpatient procedure at A Woman Plastic Surgeon. If it is your first time to visit us in Metairie for BOTOX, we commonly perform the injection within the same appointment as your consultation with Metairie Botox provider, Dr. Mizgala. You will be asked to make a few facial expressions, such as squinting, frowning, etc., which will allow us to determine where the injections should be placed. The skin will be cleansed and BOTOX will be injected under the skin using a fine needle, followed by a cold compress to help reduce bruising, swelling, and discomfort. You can request a numbing cream to make the procedure more comfortable, but it generally is not needed. BOTOX injections typically take about 10 – 15 minutes, after which you can get back to your normal day with no required recovery period.
No more worrying! You can frown, smile, laugh, and make any expression you want without seeing wrinkles and lines, thanks to BOTOX wrinkle treatments. Here at A Woman Plastic Surgeon we strive to give you the best BOTOX New Orleans has to offer. To smooth out lines throughout the face, we invite you to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mizgala in Metairie, LA to discover more about this revolutionary, nonsurgical injectable.
After the BOTOX Metairie patients are allowed to return to their usual schedule, but strenuous activities, like exercise, should be postponed for at least a day. You will be asked to sleep with your head propped up for the first night and to not touch your face, which may accidentally spread the treatment to other areas.
The treated areas of the face may become red, bruised, or swollen for a couple of days, but you will not have any long-lasting or serious side effects. In the majority of cases, it often takes about 5 – 7 days before the full effects of BOTOX become visible. The results generally last 3 – 4 months. You should speak to your injector about how often to schedule a follow-up appointment at A Woman Plastic Surgeon to refresh your results.
Come visit Dr. Mizgala and let her customize a treatment tailored to address your personal needs.
