"Inside Cosmetic and Clinical Applications of Botulinum Toxin", readers will learn everything there is to know about this effective treatment for active lines of facial expression. The storage, reconstitution and mechanism of action of BOTOX are all thoroughly explained. A thorough analysis is provided detailing the underlying facial muscle anatomy that is required and how physicians can integrate this procedure into their current practice. An additional section is also included detailing cosmetic filler agents, a more effective form of treatment for lines that are present at rest. As the demand for less invasive facial rejuvenation products and treatments continue to increase, botulinum toxin or BOTOX injections are emerging as the popular choice. While the initial public reaction was guarded, the procedure is now common, as millions of individuals around the world are pursuing the cosmetic application of BOTOX for wrinkle reduction. The text utilizes a "how to" approach in teaching the ways BOTOX can remedy many functional disorders and conditions. Specific illustrations and photographs are used to clearly convey a variety of injection techniques.
Anyone interested in expanding their clinical practice by integrating botulinum toxin and dermal filler agents should greatly benefit from this insightful resource.
