Botox and Fillers

If you’re dissatisfied with the appearance of your face or neck because of wrinkles, deep-set frown lines, or facial creases, it’s time to consider the benefits of nonsurgical therapy. At Westchester ENT, Dr. Aaron Spingarn can help you achieve a more youthful, vibrant appearance by eliminating wrinkles, lines, and creases that age you. In addition to Botox injections, Dr. Spingarn can also use popular dermal fillers to freshen your lips and restore lost volume around your cheeks, nose, and mouth. To schedule a consultation for Botox or fillers, call our office in Hartsdale, NY, at 914.686.3950 or book an appointment online today.

What is Botox?

Botox is an FDA-approved prescription medication made from a purified form of the botulinum toxin. The injectable medication temporarily paralyzes muscles across your brow and around your eyes that contribute to frown lines and crow’s feet.

The medication works by blocking nerve signals going to your muscles. As your muscles relax, your skin appears smoother and fine lines and wrinkles disappear.

Westchester ENT also offers a selection of popular dermal fillers, including Juvéderm, to address age-related creases on your face or fill in hollowed out areas or augment areas such as lips that need more plumping.

Fillers work differently than Botox. Many fillers contain hyaluronic acid gel, a substance found naturally in healthy skin. Injections of the acid gel restore lost volume in your face to smooth out creases and give you a more youthful, vibrant appearance.

When should I consider Botox therapy and dermal fillers?

You might be a candidate for Botox injections or dermal fillers if you’re unhappy with the appearance of your skin but aren’t interested in more invasive procedures, like surgery.

Schedule a comprehensive skin evaluation at Westchester ENT if you’re ready to address age-related skin flaws like:

• Crow’s feet
• Frown lines
• Smile lines
• Nasolabial folds
• Creases around the mouth

Dr. Spingarn can also use dermal fillers to plump your lips, so they look younger and fuller. 

How long do the results of Botox and dermal fillers last?  

Injections of Botox and dermal fillers don’t take long to complete. Dr. Spingarn follows a customized treatment plan to address your unique needs and ensure your results look natural.

While results vary from person to person, Botox can provide dramatic results that last for 3-4 months. If you wish to maintain your results, Dr. Spingarn can determine how often you need to schedule maintenance injections to keep your skin smooth and wrinkle-free.

Dermal fillers like Juvéderm can provide results that last up to 9 months or longer, depending on the condition of your skin. You may need additional injections if you notice new wrinkles and lines forming.
