A Possible Botox/Dysport Alternative Explored

Published on April 6, 2011 by Jen Chow

What if forehead wrinkles could be zapped away without injecting a neuromodulator such as Botox or Dysport? New research suggests that a temporary freeze of the nerves that control movement in the forehead muscles could be as effective as the injected medications.

Unfortunately, the effects last about as long as Botox: 3-4 months on average, at least according to preliminary results.

I had been to other plastic surgeons before but never got the service, low rate and amazing natural work that Dr. Chow performs. When I got my work done nobody could tell what was done but knew something looked fresh and great. Thank you so much!
I went in to see Dr. Chow and he was amazing throughout the entire process, from the reception, to consultation, until the end. He answered all of my questions and made me feel absolutely comfortable with his abilities.

Facelift

Most commonly referred to as the facelift, a rhytidectomy restores sagging areas of the lower face and neck to their far more youthful positions. This in turn leads to a more energetic, happy, and engaged appearance. Learn More

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic procedure that alters the outward appearance of the nose without sacrificing its function. When performed by a skilled surgeon, it reshapes the contours of the nose in a manner which brings harmony to the other facial features. Learn More

Brow lift

Brow lift is designed to reposition the forehead and eyebrows into their original position. With advancements made over the years, the most common technique that Dr. Chow employs is the endoscopic forehead lift, which is performed with the use of telescopic cameras and minimally invasive techniques through much smaller incisions. This shortens recovery time and avoids hair loss as a result of the surgery. Learn More

Blepharoplasty

Whether you need an eyelid lift (upper blepharoplasty), removal of bags and excess skin under the eyes (lower blepharoplasty), or are interested in double-lid surgery (Asian blepharoplasty, or Asian eyelid surgery), scheduling an appointment with Dr. Jen Chow at the Chow Center for Facial Plastic Surgery will allow you to explore your options in a comfortable and confidential environment.
