A 15-year review study concludes good safety and tolerability profile across a wide spectrum of uses. Safety was also established in patients having multiple Botox treatment for eight years for cosmetic procedures. A comparison study was done for Botox versus other formulations of botulinum toxin in eradicating glabellar lines. At week 12, twice as many patients had more than 50% improvement with Botox compared to other formulations. Better patient satisfaction with appearance and duration of effects with Botox were reported after 20 weeks. A greater proportion of patients on Botox had more relapse-free episodes. Another comparison study showed superior effects compared to preparations containing acetyl hexapeptide for minimizing moderate to severe glabellar rhytids.


Facial Slimming:
New application for Botox, - Dr. Desai is the pioneer in India to use BOTOX for this indication as he has learned it from Dr. Woffles Wu who pioneered this method.
Meso or Micro Botox and Botox Facial Slimming are two of the latest techniques that have been added to the rejuvenation techniques available to surgeons around the world.
Botox Facial Slimming involves the periodic injections of Botox into the masseter (jaw) muscles. These muscles give the face an overly square, boxy and masculine look but with Botox Facial Slimming, the face can look slimmer and more youthful.
Meso Botox involves the injection of micro-doses of Botox into the superficial layer of the facial muscle to achieve a smooth, clear skin. Even men are becoming big fans of the procedure.
Botox is the perfect quick-fox because it is minimally invasive with no down time.


What is New With Botox:
Previously, Botox was used to erase frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead, crow's feet on the eye corners, and lines on the upper lip. Now Botox can be used to rejuvenate skin, and slim down face and bulky legs!
Botox for facial slimming involves periodic injections of Botox directly into droopy muscles at the side of the face, which can contribute to an unappealing, square-looking jaw and boxy face shape. Botox injections can relax these muscles and reduce their bulk to yield a more pleasing, well-defined and slimmer facial shape. The same procedure can be applied to your calf muscles.
For skin rejuvenation, there is Meso-Botox or Micdro Botox,. Small micro-doses of Botox are injected into the superficial layer of facial skin, causing pores to close and glands to tighten, resulting in a smoothening and lifting effect. Talk to your plastic surgeon or dermatologist for more information on these new Botox procedures.

NON-SURGICAL FACE LIFT – THREAD LIFT/ WAPTOS/ APTOS

It is a new face lifting procedure, which uses threads with small barbs to raise & tighten the skin. There is no downtime & practically no complications. A few years ago, the prospect of a non-surgical facelift may have sounded as likely as that of a non-surgical triple bypass. Earlier,in nearly every case, patients are required to undergo general anaesthesia. Extensive procedures, such as the deep plane lift, call for incisions that slice perilously close to delicate facial nerves. And all facelift surgeries – even the so-called “mini-lift” – require weeks to months of recovery time before patients enjoy a newly rejuvenated face. Today all this is avoided with the help of Thread-lift
