Where To Inject Botox for a Natural Look
Achieving a natural look with Botox injections is about the expertise of your dermatologist, the amount used, and the placement that can yield smoother skin and a more youthful appearance. For example, meticulous targeting of the frontalis muscle, which controls the brow, creates a rejuvenated forehead that allows for natural expression and movement.
Each person’s facial structure is unique, making Botox a highly personalized treatment. Trust that our collective goal at Dallas Dermatology Partners is to provide exceptional care to all our patients in a thoughtful, warm, and innovative atmosphere. We strongly believe that patient care comes first, and your experience is our number one priority.
The Right Amount of Botox for a Natural Look
Our staff will assess your facial structure to determine the precise dosage for each area. The dosage varies from person to person, but most patients with moderate wrinkles will receive, for instance, between 4 and 30 units in the forehead and 12-50 units in the glabellar region, between the eyebrows. Dallas Dermatology Partners takes a conservative approach with Botox injections to give patients natural results, not a frozen appearance.
Targeting the Right Muscles for Natural Results
A skilled hand and precise muscle targeting are key to achieving the best Botox results. By carefully placing each injection with the optical dose, our approach enhances your facial features with subtle improvements that maintain your unique expression.
- Forehead Lines: Balancing Treatment for a Youthful Look
Meticulous targeting of the frontalis muscle, which controls the brow, creates a smooth, rejuvenated forehead that allows for natural expression and movement. - Crow’s Feet: Enhancing the Eyes
Taking care to inject the orbicularis oculi muscle smooths the edges of your face, allowing your eyes to retain their charm. - Corners of the Mouth: Elevating Your Smile
Injecting into the depressor anguli oris muscle subtly lifts the corners of the mouth, creating a more relaxed and youthful smile.
Achieving Beautiful, Natural-Looking Results
One of the challenges in Botox treatment is ensuring the right muscles are targeted, as improper placement by less experienced injectors can lead to less desirable results, such as the following:
- Over-injecting the frontalis muscle or injecting the frontalis muscle in someone with heavy eyelids can produce a heavy brow and flattened look.
- Insufficient treatment of the lateral forehead can result in a quirked “Spock” brow.
- Injecting too close to the eye can cause eyelid drooping and asymmetry.
At Dallas Dermatology Partners, we provide cutting-edge, collaborative, and compassionate skin care. Our team of board-certified physicians carefully maps out each patient’s facial anatomy to avoid these mistakes. By targeting the correct muscles with a precise dose, we inject Botox for a natural and balanced result.
