hi i'm dr johnny thanks for joining me
today i'm talking about
botox injection sites to look natural
20 years ago people come in they'd say
hey i want to get botox injections
i'm scared anyone else would know i'm
scared about its safety
well now there's thousands of
peer-reviewed articles on botox
what it does how it works and the safety
rarely do i hear that anymore
i still hear a little bit funny enough
people get their teeth done no problem
their hair done not a problem nails
brows
but a little bit of botox there's still
a stigma involved
if it's your first time getting it i
understand it everyone's a little
different we have to go home to our
spouses our
family or friends in certain communities
like the beauty belt what's the beauty
about
california through texas all over the
miami
that straight line across the country
it's a badge of honor
but for some we're scared we want to
look natural
i'm going to tell you today about the
two areas to get treated if you want the
most
natural look and the bang for your
dollar for your first
botox dysport xeomin gevotape
treatments so let's get started three
seconds
[Music]
okay so you're going to take the plunge
you're going to get botox treatments
or you're a provider and you're like hey
i want the home runs i want to get
treat the areas that are on label that
look the best
that won't lower or change the brow
shape or give me that
drew and i also want patient
satisfaction
and if you're a patient you don't want
to have changes in your mouth movement
changes in your smile
or droopiness what are the areas there's
two
main areas remember neuromodulators
like botox that's what botox is there's
four in this country and i mentioned the
other
in the outro the other three so you have
choices they're all a little different
i have to have a video on comparing the
four what are the different levels in
them
how do they work which ones should you
choose i have a whole video on that
but they all work similarly and they
slow muscle movement down
so it's counterintuitive but what we're
doing is stopping the crunch
stopping the orbicularis oculi muscle
from creating lines
we're not building collagen in a sense
we're not creating
youth so we're not creating a
better texture in the skin other than it
does stop some oil production
so it can help consequently consequently
with pores
but in general we're just stopping
muscle movement
so the point of that is don't miss your
collagen builders like your pedial
threads
like your retinols like your vitamin c
all the other things avoiding sun
and sunscreen using sunscreens do all
those things because botox
contrary to what many people think it is
makes you look young
but through stopping muscle mood i have
a whole video on
botox dirty little secret watch that one
because that talks about just that so
the number one area to treat
for bang for the dollar is the glabella
without the lateral corrugators a lot of
people get away without the one above
the eye
you can treat it centrally what's called
the procerus
and the medial corrugator those three
will lift the eye
medially subtly don't be scared here
suddenly
and stop you from looking angry keep in
mind when you walk down the street
if the mouth is turned down if there's a
scowl here
people walk around you for that reason
nowadays they walk around you because
they're they're scared of getting
something but
in general they avoid you if they
believe you're unhappy or angry
this area here likely part of why it
helps cure depression or help with
depression
is it makes people a little wide-eyed
open
just a little bit subtly and that
millimeter in the eye is a lot
makes you look the difference between
being rested
or being sleepy is about a millimeter or
two in the eye
big difference so it helps with that it
helps
you not look angry because you don't get
that furrow or that scowl
and when you get it done each time it
shrinks the muscle a little more so it
lasts a little longer
and it looks a little better if you get
it done a couple times in a row
especially if you have a deep furrow so
that's
the glabella the frown whatever you want
to call it providers do it all the time
on label treatment area for botox
dysport
zeeman juvo then around the eyes
on label for botox the other ones use
what we call off-label but really common
and we can treat people call them the
canthal folds orbicularis oculi the
muscle the crow's feet
the lines around the eyes particularly
men come in for these
and have a whole video on the frown and
of course
just eyes showing these injections so
you can see what they look like
also i have before and afters in those
videos i'll put a link to those
below and at the end of the video you
can watch them but
those are the two areas when you treat
here especially if you treat up by the
brow you'll get a nice lateral lip
so now we've lifted the medial brow
lifted the ladder a little bit to give a
brow lift
made people look rested slow down the
lines around the eye
and that's a nice refreshing look highly
highly unlikely to get anyone angry for
looking upset no one will know
you'll just have less lines and folds
and look refreshed
now other areas we use definitely the
forehead
the town turn of the mouth depressor
angular is common
around the mouth for vertical lip lines
the chin for dimpling there are fine
facial movement lines around those
however
and those lines when we get rid of them
with
slowing the movement down can change
expression a little bit
they can change speech a little bit so
you're working with your provider
those are more advanced areas also the
masseter if you're grinding teeth
if you have too wide of a jaw or if
you feel like you don't like the shape
of the face because it's more square
you can treat the masseter the more
muscle the more neurotoxin
the more botox dysport xeomin or
juvenile because
there's more mass the facial muscles are
smaller when we get into here
that can be the same amount you put in a
glabella 20 units per side
would be an average dose so it's much
more expensive to treat
larger muscles i hope that helps that's
