Botox

Botox® injections improve appearance by relaxing muscles that cause wrinkles. These injections also treat medical conditions, including migraines, hyperhidrosis, overactive bladder and eye problems. To maintain results, treatments should be repeated every three to six months.

According to most plastic surgeons and dermatologists, ideal candidates for BOTOX injectable are 18 years of age or older, in good physical health, are not pregnant or nursing. You should also have moderately realistic expectations with regard to results of the procedure.

The best candidates for Botox treatments are people who are physically healthy, with no history of neuromuscular diseases (such as multiple sclerosis or myasthenia gravis), who are not pregnant or nursing and who are at least 18 years old.

Some people who should not have Botox treatments include those with:

  • Existing weakness in the targeted muscles
  • Ptosis (drooping eyelids)
  • Deep facial scars
  • Very thick facial skin
  • Marked facial asymmetry
  • Skin disorders around the planned injection sites
Possible side effects and complications include:
  • Pain, swelling or bruising at the injection site.
  • Headache or flu-like symptoms.
  • Droopy eyelid or cockeyed eyebrows.
  • Crooked smile or drooling.
  • Eye dryness or excessive tearing.
There is no downtime after BOTOX®. The treatment takes very little time, and after your appointment, you can return to your daily routine right away. Patients are given pre- and post-treatment instructions to help them get effective results and feel comfortable after their visit.
 
Typically patients see improvement in about two to four days. Maximum results can be seen in as little as a week after treatment. It can vary from person to person and relies heavily on the following factors: Your age. Your muscle mass.
 

I went from being in pain in my knee and needing a PKR. I was scared of performing the surgery so I looked at alternate procedures findng Dr. Smith was a God sent. I am basically 90% better with no pain.

My knee is healed and I am able to walk and do everything I want to do.

Piezoelectric Wave TreatmentI have had chronic back pain for over a decade. I have wanted to reduce my dependence on pain medication. Because of a stroke I was unable to use some more traditional medical procedures as I could not stop by blood thinner...

I was diagnosed with Idiopathic Progressive Polyneuropathy in 2005. This caused me to slowly lose my balance. For some time I have used a cane or walker to get around without falling. After 4 sessions of Neural Prolotherapy injections in my feet I am able to walk around the house unaided and not feel like I am going to fall. I am so excited with the results of this treatment and feel my improvements will continue.

I did not know I had a problem with urine leakage, would not go away. I saw posters in the waiting room. I asked how does this work? By having these 2 O-Shots I feel wonderful! If you have issues like me do it because it works. Also, I did the UltraSlim procedure, very encouraging. Ladies and Gentlemen go see Dr. Smith, Amber and team, you won’t be disappointed!

Christine S.

I have suffered from chronic pain in my right leg for almost 4 years. After seeing my personal doctor and several nerve blocks that did not work, I was referred to Doctor Smith. After several tests he had me start on CBD oil and later added the Piezo treatments. After 8 treatments I have had 3 weeks of pain free time. The most I have had in 4 years. I am very Thankful for Amber who has done my treatments. She did a wonderful job for me.

How many sessions of PRP do I need?

Injecting Botox helps suck in the muscle and make it look taut. Doctors recommend anywhere between 20 to 60 units.

When should I call a doctor?

Recent advances in PRP technology have made it possible for Regenerative Medicine & Biologics Institute to promote healing, reduce inflammation and speed recovery without surgery. Without PRP, injured tissues are often unable to repair themselves because they lack adequate blood supply. By using PRP, RMBI is able to provide the body with the enriched blood it would naturally produce to heal itself under normal circumstances. Don’t live with pain — contact us today.
