What is Baby BOTOX®?

Despite its popularity, we all know BOTOX® could lead to an unnaturally frozen or surprised expression. With the best intentions toward preventing the signs of aging, many people aren’t thrilled with how stunted their facial expressions become with traditional BOTOX® treatments. Now, there’s Baby BOTOX®, a new trend with how BOTOX® injections are administered. With Dr. Zenovia Gabriel’s expert knowledge of the musculature of the face and precision with a needle, you can have wrinkle-free skin without the fear of overcorrection.

How Does Baby BOTOX® Work?

You may be surprised to learn that Baby BOTOX® is not a different strength of medicine; it’s a change to the dose and depth of each injection. BOTOX® is made from botulinum toxin type A. Repetitive facial expressions cause the skin to crease and relax. The more this happens, the more those creases stick around, creating dynamic wrinkles. BOTOX® stops those muscles from moving, so the skin has a chance to relax away the wrinkles and repair the damaged tissues.

The key to Baby BOTOX® injections is micro-doses. The idea is that smaller amounts of BOTOX® delivered superficially are enough to partially relax the muscle rather than entirely suspend its movement. This minimizes rather than freezes the dynamic expressions that create wrinkles. You still control your features for a more natural expression of your personality, while your wrinkles will still relax and diminish. It’s the best of both worlds.

Baby BOTOX® can also be used in more areas than traditional BOTOX® injections. A skilled practitioner of Dr. Zena’s experience can lift and tighten other areas of the face with Baby BOTOX® injections. She can diminish the marionette lines around the mouth, soften bunny lines at the top of the nose bridge, and even tighten the chin in some older patients. Baby BOTOX® can also make a difference in the appearance of the neck and décolletage. Some patients have Baby BOTOX® administered into the muscles at the jaw’s hinge to minimize tooth grinding, bringing the added bonus of giving the jawline a slender V shape that’s flattering to the whole face.
