Botox Injections in NYC
Aging is a natural process, but wrinkles and fine lines don’t have to be a part of it. At Park Plaza Dermatology, we offer Botox injections to help patients achieve a more youthful, refreshed appearance. Our FDA-approved botulinum toxin treatments smooth out facial wrinkles and prevent new lines from forming, giving you a naturally rejuvenated look with minimal downtime. Whether you’re looking to soften frown lines, crow’s feet, or forehead creases, our experienced dermatologists provide safe and effective Botox treatments tailored to your aesthetic goals.
What are Botox Injections and How Do They Work?
Botox injections are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. Derived from botulinum toxin, Botox works by blocking nerve signals to targeted muscles, preventing them from contracting and creating expression lines.
Common areas treated with Botox include:
Forehead lines
Smooths out horizontal wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements.
Frown lines (Glabellar lines)
Softens the vertical lines between the eyebrows.
Crow’s feet
Reduces fine lines around the eyes for a refreshed look.
Bunny lines
Minimizes wrinkles on the bridge of the nose.
Lip flip
Enhances the upper lip’s appearance by relaxing the muscle just above it.
Jawline contouring
Slims the jawline by relaxing the masseter muscles.
Botox results typically last 3 to 4 months, and regular treatments help maintain long-term smoothness and wrinkle prevention.
