Botox
Botox is a natural protein that works by blocking the nerve signals to the muscles of the face. It works for dynamic wrinkles (those that appear with facial expression or movement). The most common areas are the forehead and around the eyes, but it can be used in other areas on a case by case basis.
Over the last ten years, Botox has become the world’s most popular cosmetic procedure, with millions of uses, because of its predictable effects and excellent safety profile. Treatment involves several injections with a tiny needle. Most people tolerate the injections very well, but I offer topical anesthetic in case you don’t tolerate injections well.
Cooling compresses are used to limit discomfort and bruising after the procedure. The area may be red for several minutes, but makeup can be used. You can go back to your normal activities immediately. Some patients have bruising in the injected areas, but this is rare.
The effects of the Botox are typically seen four to seven days later and last three to four months on average, though many patients report that it lasts longer after repeated use.
Why everyone who tries BOTOX® loves it...
BOTOX® treatments have exploded in popularity in recent years. BOTOX® can dramaticaly improve your appearance by reducing fine lies and wrinkles with a few simple injections that are easily tolerable without any anesthetic.

We hear many patients talk about BOTOX® when they are considering treatment in Dr. Dana's Jupiter, Fl Office, and there are many common misconceptions. The most common is that you can loose permanent movement in your face. The truth is that BOTOX® is never permanant. Although we've never had a patient that didn't wish it was!
Our Botox® patients range in age from as young as 25 to over 80. Though most of Dr. Dana's BOTOX® patients were female in the past, today male BOTOX® patients are just as common. Contact Dr. Dana for a free BOTOX® consultation today. Treatments only take a few minutes, and you won't find a better value.
Botox® treatment for excessive sweating
Does severe underarm sweating interfere with your daily activities? Are you afraid to raise your arms in normal situations because of underarm sweat stains? Do you hesitate to buy new clothes because they might be ruined by underarm sweat? Do you worry someone will notice your sweat stains?
When severe underarm sweating gets in the way of certain daily activities and antiperspirants haven't worked, you may be a candidate for BOTOX®treatment.
During the procedure at the doctor's office, a small amount of BOTOX®is injected into the affected underarm area through a very fine needle. In a short appointment, about 15 injections are made to the underarm area. The actual procedure takes about 10 to 15 minutes and lasts up to 201 days or 6.7 months.
In some cases, your health insurance will cover BOTOX® treatments for excessive sweating. You can visit your insurance company's website or call your insurance provider to find out if you qualify for BOTOX®.
