Emma decided to get Botox for the first time. After some convincing, she allowed it to be filmed. Emma’s known Dr. Mark Krasny for years and he was the only option for her to go see. Dermafina allowed us to film the process and they answered all of our questions.
Botox
What is it?
Botox and Dyport are both neuromodulators that work beneath the surface and temporarily reduce the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults – to help them look visibly smoother
Benefits from it?
Botox helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles and prevents wrinkle formation from repeated muscle movements.
What age should you do it?
The truth is, everyone’s lines form differently. The timing can be influenced by a combination of factors including genetics, sun damage, loss of collagen, etc. Most patients start Botox in their mid to late twenties as prevention if they have strong dynamic wrinkles.
Common misconceptions about the treatment?
Most patients are afraid of getting Botox in the fear that their face will look “frozen”. When injected correctly by an experienced injector, Botox looks natural and gives a patient a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
Cost?
The cost of Botox varies depending on the amount of units needed. On average for the glabella (frown lines), 20-30 units is needed, which is around $250-$400.
How many times do you have to do it? (most common amount)
Botox can last on average 4 months.
