Botox®

Have you noticed the presence of frown lines between your eyebrows? These stubborn areas tend to make you look tired or angry, which can be a real problem in social and professional settings. Thankfully, Botox and Dermal Fillers are the perfect solution!

Botox consists of a purified protein that, once injected, temporarily reduces the muscle activity that leads to these deep lines. With Botox treatment, you can expect a more natural appearance with less wrinkling of the skin and less headaches and habitual grinding of the teeth. The patient will then wait up to 2 weeks for the full effect to come on.

Dr  Kerzhner will evaluate you to see if you are a candidate for any of these procedures for therapeutic reasons or to enhance your dental restorations. The doctor will mark the area of your face with a make-up pencil clearly explain why it is recommended to treat these areas. At this point the doctor will make injections into the skin.

Why should you do Botox and Dermal Filler in
Dr Kerzhner office?

As a dentist Dr Kerzhner has advanced training in the oral and maxillofacial anatomy (that means the face from chin to forehead) as much, or more than any other healthcare professional. All dentists are very familiar with two things: the function of each muscle in the face and giving intra-oral injections. In fact dentist gives more injections than almost any medical professional. Having the ability to deliver Botox in a completely painless manner is one of the biggest advantages of getting these procedures done in Dr Kerzhner dental office.

Another critical point is that dentists master in the knowledge of facial expression muscle dynamics.  Do you think that other healthcare professionals know or are concerned about the proper ratios of lips to teeth, the smile considerations when the patients go into a partial or a full smile, proper phonetics, and how the teeth relate to the soft tissue surrounding the mouth?. Dr. Kerzhner knowledge of these areas, in addition to having the ability to take care of  complications in facial areas, makes Dr. Ella Kerzhner the provider of choice for Botox.
