Wrinkles

April 28, 2009 by Dr. Buckingham

Betty,

Thanks for your question.  The frown lines between your eyes may be dealt with in a couple of ways.  The first question to ask is are they there only when you scowl or do you have a line even when the muscle is relaxed.  Lines that are their at rest are called static and lines there only with muscle activity are dynamic.  You have to deal with the dynamic component to have any lasting success with the static line.

The dynamic line may be dealt with using Botox or a procedure call Relaxed Expressions.  Botox is of course an injection.  It is very easy, inexpensive and effective, however you have to repeat it every 4 months or so.  Relaxed Expressions is a minimally invasive procedure that treats the nerve that goes to the muscle.  It has the potential to permanently reduce the action of the muscle, but still leave you with some expression.

The static line can be dealt with using fillers such as Restylane, Juvederm or Radiesse or using a resurfacing procedure such as Fraxel or a chemical peel.  Usually we use a filler, but if you have other facial skin concerns one of the other procedures may be more prudent.

We have further explainations of these procedures as well as before and after photos on the site.  Please take some time to educate yourself further and feel free to call for a consultation anytime.

Reviews

I loved my results with Dr. Buckingham and his skilled staff. My procedure was easy and painless, with an easy, short recovery leaving me with a great result that will last for years. I chose Dr. Buckingham because a friend, who is in the medical profession herself, had him perform her…
