Botulinum toxin is very effective in decreasing the appearance of existing lines and wrinkles, as well as preventing new lines from forming.
Although Botox® injections have traditionally been seen as a treatment for older patients, a more recent trend is for younger patients to begin “light botox” to prevent the development of those wrinkles as they age.
Dr. Edwin Kwon also performs other more advanced uses for botulinum toxin that can reduce larger muscles like masseter muscles to provide a slimmer looking face, calf muscles to provide slimmer legs, or shoulder muscles to provide a slimmer neckline.
