How can Botox be used for anti-aging benefits?

Dr. Ahmadur Rahman of Zen Med Spa Aesthetics and Regenerative Medicine is a doctor specializing in internal medicine, medical aesthetics, and primary care with over a decade of experience. Today, he focuses on helping his patients with anti-aging concerns using cosmetic treatments and procedures. This includes the popular aesthetic injectable commonly known as Botox. 

Patients in and around Jamaica, Queens, and Manhattan, New York, are invited to talk to him about this and other cosmetic treatments available to address the signs of aging, such as forehead wrinkles, without plastic surgeries.

What is Botox?

First, let’s look at Botox and what has made it a popular treatment for aging skin. Botox is an injectable medication derived from the botulinum toxin. This neurotoxin temporarily paralyzes specific facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines that may be deep or very noticeable. It effectively blocks nerve signals to specific muscles, preventing them from contracting and causing wrinkles patients prefer to avoid.

How is it used?

Botox is commonly used to treat dynamic wrinkles on the face caused by repetitive facial movements like frowning, squinting, and smiling. These wrinkles may include crow’s feet, forehead lines, and vertical lines that develop with time between the eyebrows–sometimes referred to as the “elevens.” Botox is injected by Dr. Ahmadur Rahman directly into these muscles on the face to relax them and smooth out their appearance.

What are the results I can expect from Botox injections?

Many patients see results from Botox within three to five days after their treatment. The peak effects typically occur by the first week and will last many months before reinjection is needed. Without retreatment, patients will notice their fine lines and wrinkles return. The only way to maintain the results long-term is to continue to have Botox injections performed, and eventually, plastic surgery may be required if lines and wrinkles are more severe with time.

Why should I choose Botox injections?

• Botox is an excellent way for patients to address aging skin without the need for invasive procedures
• Botox is affordable, making it attainable for those who are on a tight budget
• Botox is typically very safe when administered by a trained medical professional such as Dr. Ahmadur Rahman of New York
• Botox can be performed continually to maintain results over time
• Botox has been used for many years for not only cosmetic purposes but medical purposes as well, such as the treatment of hyperhidrosis (overactive sweat glands) and chronic headaches and migraines
• Botox has few side effects that are often short-term if they do develop
