Additional Botox Treatments We Offer

1. Jaw Slimming (Masseter Botox)

Achieve a slimmer, V-shaped face with Botox injections targeting the masseter muscles. This treatment not only softens the jawline but can also alleviate teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw tension, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits.

2. Neck Lift (Platysmal Bands Botox)

Over time, vertical bands on the neck can become prominent due to aging. Botox relaxes these muscles, smoothing the skin and offering a “Nefertiti Lift,” which enhances the jawline and neck for a more sculpted appearance.

3. Underarm Sweating (Hyperhidrosis Treatment)

Excessive sweating can be uncomfortable and embarrassing. Botox significantly reduces sweat production by blocking signals to the sweat glands, keeping you dry and confident in social and professional settings.

4. TMJ Treatment (Temporomandibular Joint)

Chronic jaw pain and tension headaches caused by TMJ disorders can disrupt daily life. Botox relaxes the muscles around the jaw, relieving pain, reducing clenching, and even slimming the lower face over time.

5. Brow Lift

Open up your eyes and restore a youthful, well-rested look with a subtle brow lift using Botox. By relaxing the muscles that pull the brows down, this treatment can create a more awake and refreshed appearance.

6. Lip Flip

Achieve a naturally fuller smile with a Botox lip flip. This treatment enhances the upper lip by relaxing the muscles around it, gently flipping it outward for a more pronounced and defined pout without fillers.

7. Chin Dimpling (Mentalis Botox)

Address the dimpled or “pebbled” appearance of the chin caused by an overactive mentalis muscle. Botox smooths the skin, enhancing the chin’s shape and symmetry for a polished and youthful profile.

8. Nasal Tip Lift

A drooping nasal tip can make the nose appear longer or less defined. Botox relaxes the depressor muscle at the base of the nose, subtly lifting the tip for a refined and harmonious profile.

9. Gummy Smile Correction

Feel more confident with your smile! Botox relaxes the upper lip muscles, reducing the exposure of gums when you smile and creating a balanced, natural appearance.

10. Headache and Migraine Relief

Botox is widely recognized for its ability to alleviate chronic migraines. By targeting tension-causing muscles in the forehead, temples, and scalp, Botox provides relief from debilitating headaches, improving your quality of life.

11. Facial Asymmetry Correction

Subtle facial imbalances can impact self-confidence. Botox allows for precise targeting of overactive or underactive muscles to create symmetry and harmony in your facial features.

12. Jelly Rolls

What Are Jelly Rolls?

Jelly rolls refer to tense muscles under the eyes, often caused by frequent squinting or smiling. Under-eye BOTOX relaxes these muscles, reducing or eliminating the jelly roll appearance by stopping muscle movement. This safe and effective treatment offers lasting results, surpassing the efficacy of over-the-counter skin care products.

Why Is Under-Eye BOTOX an Excellent Treatment for Jelly Rolls?

Under-eye BOTOX effectively treats jelly rolls by relaxing tense muscles and softening their appearance. By stopping muscle movement it diminishes the jelly roll when squinting or smiling. This safe and lasting treatment provides superior results compared to over-the-counter skin care products, requiring maintenance every four to six months.

13. Botox for a Wide Nose/Flared Nostril Botox

People have varied opinions on the ideal nose shape. Traditional nose surgery (rhinoplasty) used to be the primary solution for those unhappy with wide nasal bases and flaring nostrils. However, non-surgical options like Botox are gaining popularity.

Can Botox Fix a Wide Nose?

Botox can address a wide nose by targeting the muscles responsible for pulling the nostrils sideways and the nose tip downward. Unlike surgery, Botox alters muscle activity, not bone structure, resulting in a slimmer nose appearance.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Men and women in good health seeking to correct nostril flaring and a drooping nose tip are ideal candidates. Botox offers a non-invasive alternative with minimal recovery time, but candidates should have realistic expectations.

Procedure Details

After skin cleansing and topical anesthesia, a medical professional injects Botox into specific muscles using a thin needle. The procedure is brief, typically lasting under 30 minutes, and requires no downtime.

Where Do You Inject Botox for a Wide Nose?

Botox is injected into muscles such as the dilator naris posterior and depressor septi-nasi to address nostril flaring and a drooping nasal tip, respectively.

Results and Duration

Patients typically notice slimmer noses and lifted tips within a week of treatment, with results lasting 4-6 months. Maintenance treatments can extend the duration of results.

Side Effects

Common, short-lived side effects may include redness, bruising, swelling, and discomfort. When administered by skilled professionals, Botox for a wide nose is safe.

Conclusion

For individuals dissatisfied with their nose shape, Botox offers a subtle yet impactful solution. Contact Dr. Kasturi at Aesthetic Envy to explore how Botox can help achieve your desired look.

14. BOTOX NON-SURGICAL NOSE TIP LIFT

The nose plays a crucial role in facial aesthetics, contributing to overall harmony. A drooping nasal tip can disrupt the facial balance. At Aesthetic Envy in Sacramento, we offer a non-surgical nose tip lift with Botox to enhance facial symmetry and attractiveness. The nasal tip’s appearance greatly influences overall nose aesthetics. While a slight droop is common, it can detract from facial harmony. Correcting minor imperfections like a downward tip is achievable without surgery. Dr. Kasturi at Aesthetic Envy performs non-surgical nose lifts using Botox injections.

HOW BOTOX IMPROVES THE NOSE TIP

Botox doesn’t directly lift the nose tip; rather, it relaxes muscles, pulling it downward. Acting as a neuromodulator, Botox blocks nerve signals, relaxing targeted muscles for 3-4 months. To lift the nasal tip non-surgically, Botox targets the depressor septi-nasi muscle near the septum’s base. Complete results may take up to two weeks as the muscle relaxes, allowing the nasal tip to rise slightly.

15. DAO/Down Turned Lip

What is the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) Muscle?

The Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) muscle, located in the lower face, aids in mouth downturn or frowning. Linked to mouth corners and the lower jaw, it collaborates with other facial muscles. Aging weakens it, leading to a perpetual frown, tired appearance, and marionette lines. Over time, it contracts, causing jowls. Botulinum toxin injections can counter these aging effects, restoring a more youthful look.

Can Botox treat a downturned mouth?

Botox effectively treats a downturned mouth caused by overactive depressor anguli oris muscles, lifting mouth corners. This condition, visible at rest, creates a sad or tired appearance. Botox restores facial symmetry by relaxing these muscles and erasing fine lines and wrinkles.

What does Botox in DAO do?

Botox in the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) muscle relaxes it by blocking neurotransmitters, preventing excessive muscle contraction. This relaxation helps alleviate a downturned mouth, reducing the appearance of frown lines and wrinkles. By targeting the DAO muscle, Botox lifts the corners of the mouth, restoring a more neutral or upward facial expression. This treatment counters the downward pull of the muscle, providing a subtle lift and enhancing facial symmetry, ultimately contributing to a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

How does Botox work with facial DAO muscles?

During a consultation with Dr. Kasturi, discuss your medical history and aesthetic goals for DAO Botox. Precise injections tailored to your facial anatomy are crucial. Avoid blood thinners prior to treatment to reduce bruising risk. Dr. Kasturi applies numbing cream before marking injection sites. Injections take 15-30 minutes with minimal discomfort. There’s no downtime; patients can resume regular activities immediately. Risks are minimal under an experienced injector. Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and redness, typically resolving within days.

Where Do You Inject Botox for a Wide Nose?

Botox is injected into muscles such as the dilator naris posterior and depressor septi-nasi to address nostril flaring and a drooping nasal tip, respectively.

How many units of Botox for DAO?

The required Botox units for DAO treatment vary based on facial anatomy and mouth downturn severity. Generally, 4 units per side are used, accounting for asymmetry. Dr. Kasturi assesses your needs during consultation for a tailored estimate.

How long does DAO Botox last?

DAO Botox typically lasts 3-6 months, with full results visible within 2 weeks. Maintenance appointments every 6 months can prolong the effects.

What does Botox do to DAO muscles?

Botox injected into the DAO muscles blocks neurotransmitters, relaxing the muscles. This action lifts the corners of the mouth, counteracting the downward pull that creates a perpetual frown. It restores a youthful appearance by reducing the appearance of tired or upset expressions.

Side Effects

Common, short-lived side effects may include redness, bruising, swelling, and discomfort. When administered by skilled professionals, Botox for a wide nose is safe.
