Botox, the world’s most popular medical treatment, and certainly one that is popular in Scottsdale and Phoenix, Arizona, is now being used for an entire spectrum of purposes that were never originally part of its design. Though it remains the standard injectable treatment for the lessening of wrinkles through muscle relaxation, these new therapies have greatly increased the number of patients who can receive its benefits. During your consultation with Dr. Caniglia, he will work with you to see if Botox or any other injectable can help you reach your facial goals.
Botox Cosmetic Uses
Most patients use Botox in its cosmetic clinical form, known as Botox Cosmetic, though other medical uses may use different formulations for the best result. Dr. Caniglia uses Botox Cosmetic for his Scottsdale patients, treating facial wrinkles through the relaxation of tense muscles in the face. Popular areas of treatment with Botox Cosmetic include:
- Crow’s Feet: the corners of the eyes
- Around the lips
- Between the eyes
- Forehead Lines
Other Uses for Botox
Though the cosmetic uses are by far the most popular, some of the other uses that have gained a patient following include the treatment of migraine headaches, joint pain and excessive sweating. Botox Cosmetic has proven to be particularly effective for neck and back pain, with many users receiving regular treatments for several years. It may also be used to treat those with certain voice problems which result in a strangulated voice.
