BOTOX® COSMETIC INJECTIONS Kansas City - Physician Performed Service
WHY LET A NURSE OR TECHNICIAN PERFORM YOUR INJECTIONS?
In our experience, our office has found that the injection of Botulinum toxin Type A, i.e., Botox®, works the best for cosmetic uses and provides the best long-term results and best over-all satisfaction among patients and has the longest research profile.
It important though for patients to understand that you must get enough product into the area to do the job. Do not try to spread too little too far. On average each needle stick will deliver about 5 to 7 units of botulinum toxin to an injection site. The above prices are for an individual patient (no sharing or splitting).
Glabellar areas can take three to five injections, foreheads can take three to five injections, lateral eyes can take two or three injections on each side, and we also like injections under the lower lids to remove fine lines (one or two on each side). Our office only treats the upper half of the face and we use fillers in the lower half of the face. More can be concentrated in needed zones based on experience, so the amounts in various locations can vary based on need of individual patients.
We accept VISA, MasterCard, & Cash for Botulinum Toxin Inj. (i.e., BotoxÒ).
BOTOX® - What to know: Our injections are always physician performed!! Things to know about the product. It can be used for vertical lines between your eyebrows, forehead lines, and lines at the corners of your eyes (crow's feet), but some of these areas may be off-label uses. It is generally used for what are referred to as lines of expression. Expression lines can be such as frown lines, brow lines, crow's feet, and bunny lines that become evident with age and exaggerated by excessive facial muscle activity. Again, in many offices some of the areas are off-label uses of the product. In our opinion, the effects usually lasts from 2 to 4 months. The most common side effect of BOTOX® can be a slight bruising from the needle stick. In rare instances, an adjacent muscle may be affected, causing eyelid weakness (ptosis) for several weeks. The injections are given with a tiny 30 gauge needle, so there is only minimal discomfort. Please stop all anti-inflammatory medications, including aspirin, for 5-7 days prior to the injection to minimize bruising. We also prefer that you do not take Vit. E, Fish Oil, Garlic tablets, or St. John's Wort for 5-7 days prior to an injection.. If you would like to learn more about your cosmetic options, or to find out if BOTOX® treatments are right for you, please call our office at (913) 962-1869 and schedule a consultation with the doctor.
