"Botulinum Toxin changes the way your face will age. It's not so much about the lines, it is about changing the way your face will age. It is about preventing the downward and forward falling of the face in the long term."

Dr Marks recommends and specializes in the placement of full face and neck balanced botulinum toxin placement as one of the primary anti-ageing tools. Beauty is about balance. If one only treats the upper face muscles (crow's feet and frown / forehead),one will eventually  age at differently in the top and bottom parts of the face and neck. This can create a dissonance in appearance.

Wrinkles and lines result from a combination of many factors. It’s not only about skin changes that can occur over time, reduction of collagen, or damage caused by free radicals in the sun and the environment. The overuse of the muscles of facial expression for example, frowning , cause one's skin to furrow and fold and bring the brow down. While skin renewal is only possible using other treatments such as Limelight , Dermatrix Duo, Tixl, Dermapen and chemical peeling, botulinum toxin injections do go a long way to prevent permanent lines from forming over time and smoothing out of existing lines. Relaxation of the face by temporarily weakening key muscle activity goes a long way toward any great anti-ageing program.

Medical Uses for Botulinum Toxin:

Hyperhidrosis, commonly known as severe sweating:

Botox treatments temporarily block the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands resulting in reduced sweating for up to 6 months per treatment.

Common areas that can be treated include underarm and palms of the hands.

Bruxism also known as Teeth Grinding:

Grinding of the teeth especially at night whilst sleeping causes disturbance of sleep, damage to the jaw joint , chipping of the teeth and chronic headaches. Botox injected into the masseter muscles obviates the need for a bite plate, improving quality of life and preserving vital structures.

Facial Palsies:

Bell's Palsy and stroke are conditions that can leave a patient with paresis (weakness) or paralysis of the facial muscles. Prudent use of Botox and volumising fillers can help to normalize the appearance of the face and relieve spasm.

Blepharospasm:

Twitching of the muscles surrounding the eye and mouth can be treated effectively using BOTOX® therapy.

Chronic headaches , Migraines, Cluster headaches, Neck spasm.

Dr marks runs a chronic pain and Headache Clinic offering botulinum toxin treatments which are safe , long lasting and offer patients the possibility of living pain free decreasing the need for chronic medication and improving quality of life.

Unlike acute oral or intravenous treatments, which are taken to treat a headache or migraine once it's already begun, BOTOX® prevents headaches and migraines before they even start.

You can't always predict when a headache or migraine will occur, and that can be frustrating. When you're living with 15 or more headache days a month, and each headache lasting 4 hours or more, a lot of your life is eaten up by headache and migraines. Add to that at least 8 headache days a month associated with migraine, and you've got a tough situation.

BOTOX® is the first and only FDA-approved treatment for Chronic Migraine that prevents headaches and migraines before they even start.

  3. Natural-looking results: Dysport can provide natural-looking results, with a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
  4. Long-lasting effects: The effects of Dysport can last for several months, depending on the individual and the area being treated.
  5. Versatility: Dysport can be used to treat a variety of areas on the face, including the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes.
  6. Safety: Dysport has been extensively studied and has a well-established safety profile.
