What People Are Saying About Our

Melasma Treatment

I’m very happy with it! I feel like I can go out without any makeup now or just a light CC cream. I didn't have any success in getting rid of my melasma with Musely or with any other at-home remedies. And I’ve tried pretty much everything! I think the results are better than when I did lasers. In the past, I had to do multiple laser sessions (3 times and then 2 times) and the results were not quite as good as with Cosmelan, I feel.

FAQs

What Can BOTOX® Treat?

BOTOX Injections are ideal solution for eliminating fine lines and deep wrinkles throughout your face. It can effectively be used to treat dynamic lines, or those created by facial expressions. Most commonly,BOTOX Cosmetic is used to treat crow’s feet and the area between your eyebrows. It can also be used on the areas of the cheeks, jaw, and forehead.

How Long Does BOTOX® Last?

Effects of BOTOX injections last for three to four months. BOTOX Cosmetic works by temporarily disrupting nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. Over time, these pathways will repair themselves, resulting in a reappearance of wrinkles. Many people choose to have BOTOX Cosmetic injections three or four times a year to help prevent the reappearance of wrinkles.

Is BOTOX® safe?

BOTOX is FDA approved for the treatment of wrinkles and has been safely used for over 20 years. There are well over a million BOTOX Cosmetic procedures performed in the United States every year and the complication rate is negligible. Some people may experience tenderness or slight swelling around the injection site for a few days following treatment, but this is temporary and extremely rare with our patients. Your risk for complications is much higher when you choose to have injections performed at a spa and by a non-medical professional. Dr. Lee is a qualified facial plastic surgeon with over 10 years of Botox injection experience providing this safe and effective treatment. He has trained other doctors to inject and is a top 1% injector in the United States. If you live in or around Philadelphia or Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania and would like to learn more about BOTOX Cosmetic, please contact John J. W. Lee, MD, FACS to schedule an initial consultation today.

If I Discontinue BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections, Will I Age More Rapidly?

Discontinuing BOTOX Cosmetic injections will not cause you to age more rapidly. Should you choose to discontinue treatment, your skin will simply return to its natural state, being neither less nor more wrinkled than it was prior to treatment. Treatments with Botox is an effective method to prevent deeper wrinkles from permanently forming by eliminating the movements that is creating it.

How Old Should I be Before Getting BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections?

There is no age restriction on BOTOX Cosmetic. Many people begin these injections as early as their mid-20s to help reduce visible signs of aging. During your initial consultation with Philadelphia area facial plastic surgeon Dr. John Lee, it can be determined if BOTOX Cosmetic is right for you.

Botox treatments have been around for over twenty years and there are over 200 studies confirming the safety and efficacy of Botox. BOTOX is FDA approved for the treatment of Glabella frown lines between the eyes and crows feet (around the corners of the eyes), but it is also commonly used for the treatment of forehead wrinkles, to elevate the brow, and to reduce the appearance of wide and prominent jaw-line, vertical neck bands, headaches, and sweating. Studies have shown that using cosmetic botox for ongoing period of time, patients have noticed substantial softening of existing wrinkles but also prevention of new wrinkles developing.
