I started doing Botox after my first HT procedure (July 05). Put some hair on the head and smooth away some wrinkles and I look 10 years younger already. Is anyone else doing Botox?

DocPatient,

Did Dr. Epstein do your Botox injections? I believe he is doing that now.

No. I went to another physician.

My wife has been getting Botox for the past couple of years, she's 45. It's great stuff while it lasts; which for her is only about 4 months. She pays $600 for her forehead, around and between the eye area. She is addicted now.

I have a VERY expressive face, which people like, and it's funny, and blah blah blah but DAMN I'm going to be one wrinkled old man! I've been thinking about it for right between my brows.

Can you still MOVE afterward? lol Do you look stiff and weird or are you very comfortable with the FEELING, not just the look.

I'd love to know. 'Coz I kinda think I might be headed that way, but I'm SO SHY about mentioning it to anyone. Ya know?

We offer botox to our patients, and find that men particularly benefit from relaxing the frown wrinkles between the eyebrows. We generally charge $350.00 for this and have a tremendous satisfaction rate. I personally have been treating my own frown with botox for 13 years.

Does anybody know HOW the Botox injections should be done (how many units/where on head)? I am interested in trying this, but my local derm is a little baffled. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have a copy of the patent, but personal experiences would be much more valuable. My scalp muscles have become hyper-sensitive to stress and I believe that this has led to loss. The chance of any regrowth aside, I would kill to have the tension in my scalp relieved. Thank you

jx66, I've heard "Restylene" is the newest thing for wrinkles so before you do anything look into it, and the doctor here might chime in also.

never heard of it.. apart from the botox and restylene making the skin appear younger is it better for the skin.. ie in 6 months when the effects wear off will my skin be a bit worse off than if id never used it?

Restylane is a filler material and has no affect on muscles. I need information on scalp Botox injections. Thanks for the reply.
