Botox® is a simple, non-invasive way to achieve a refreshed, rested, and more youthful appearance.
Thinking about having Botox®, but don't know if it's right for you? Talk it over with Dr. Preminger.
Botox®
Experienced in the latest facial rejuvenation methods, Dr. Preminger is one of the top Manhattan plastic surgeons for Botox® in NYC. She understands that wrinkles, creases and deep furrows are unfortunately in everyone’s future, but with a few deftly placed injections, the look of youth and vitality are quickly within reach. Everyday expressions such as smiling, squinting, laughing and frowning cause facial lines to form, and over time these lines become deeper and more noticeable, giving the face a tired or even angry appearance.
Like other safe, FDA-approved age-fighting injectables, Botox® can transform your appearance almost instantly – from fatigued to refreshed, and the results last for up to 5 months! It works not by replacing lost volume (that’s where facial fillers like Juvederm® can help), but by relaxing the muscle contractions that cause wrinkles in the first place. Dr. Preminger only uses Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA) in her practice, given its safety profile and incredible, life-changing results.

Preparation and Risks of Botox®

between the eyes. Similarly, “crow’s feet” can develop around the corners of the eyes from years of repeated squinting, while horizontal forehead lines appear as a result of repetitive muscle movements over time. These wrinkles are unique to each patient and require a customized Botox® treatment plan that precisely targets the right areas with the correct dosage to achieve a natural look. Administering too much Botox® can lead to an undesirable “frozen look” or overly heavy brows, making it crucial to choose a skilled plastic surgeon or dermatologist.
In addition to smoothing facial wrinkles, Botox® can be used for a lip enhancement technique called the Botox lip flip. This minimally invasive procedure involves injecting small amounts of Botox® into the upper lip muscles to relax them, causing the lip to gently flip outward and appear fuller. The lip flip can enhance the natural shape of the lips, providing a subtle, plump look without the need for fillers. As with wrinkle treatments, a personalized approach is essential for a successful Botox lip flip, ensuring the right balance for a natural-looking, beautiful smile.
By choosing an expert in Botox® injections, you can rest assured that adverse side effects are avoided and are left with natural-looking results. In the capable hands of Dr. Preminger, patients can truly turn back the clock a good many years, but in a subtle way that merely suggests good health and plenty of rest. During your private consultation in her Park Avenue office, Dr. Preminger will assess your facial areas of concern and make sure that blood thinners like fish oil, Vitamin E and aspirin are avoided prior to the injections.
In addition, she will discuss your medical history and review all Botox® risks, which are rare but important to outline prior to the treatment. Problems with speaking, swallowing or breathing can occur, but they usually occur in patients who have a pre-existing muscle or nerve disorder.
Other less serious risks include:
- Allergic reactions: rash, welts
- Bruising or swelling
- Drooping eyelids (resolves with time)
- Muscle weakness near the injection site
- Headaches
- Dry mouth
- Blurry vision
- Redness at the injection site
