Introduction
BOTOX has become the most sought-after cosmetic procedure in the US, and for extremely good reason. Its proven effectiveness in reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the face, coupled with minimal downtime, has made it a popular choice among those seeking quick, effective results in Hawaii.
The mechanism of action involves reducing muscle activity in a targeted area, emphasizing the importance of having BOTOX administered by a board-certified plastic surgeon such as Dr. Larry Schlesinger.
From our home in beautiful Honolulu, Dr. Schlesinger at Breast Implant Center of Hawaii strives to provide the best BOTOX results for patients on the Island. If you’re searching for head-turning results and looking to turn back the clock on aging, BOTOX may be exactly what you need.
BOTOX is a cosmetic treatment that has gained immense popularity in recent years due to its ability to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the face. It is made from a safe, small amount of the protein found in Clostridium botulinum bacterium. When injected into the muscles, it reduces their ability to contract, which in turn reduces movement and promotes a smoothing effect on lines and wrinkles. It is important to note that BOTOX is not effective in treating wrinkles caused by a loss of elasticity in the skin, as these are a result of natural aging processes rather than muscle activity. Therefore, it is crucial to consult with Dr. Schlesinger to determine if BOTOX is the right treatment for your particular cosmetic concerns. The Breast Implant Center of Hawaii strives to offer the best possible results with BOTOX while minimizing any potential risks or side effects.
Dysport is an FDA-approved cosmetic injectable treatment that utilizes a purified form of “botulinum toxin type A” to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Similar to its successful cousin BOTOX, Dysport works by relaxing the underlying facial muscles responsible for creating wrinkles, which helps to smoothen and soften the lines, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
It is most often used to treat the lines that form between your eyebrows (often called “worry lines” or glabellar lines ), but can also be used on your eyes (crow’s feet), lips, and neck.

The procedure involves administering two to three injections using a fine needle. Dr. Schlesinger will exercise extreme care and focus while injecting the BOTOX to avoid any potential spread of the toxin. Following the injections, you may be given an ice pack to apply to the treated area to reduce the risk of bruising and swelling.
After your BOTOX treatment in Hawaii, most patients can return to normal activities immediately. However, there are a few things to keep in mind during the recovery period:

Dr. S. Larry Schlesinger is a highly experienced board-certified plastic surgeon who has been performing BOTOX injections in Honolulu for almost 20 years since it was first approved by the FDA in 2002. He understands the importance of careful and precise injection placement to achieve optimal results for his patients. The proper administration of BOTOX is crucial to its effectiveness and safety.
