HAMMONTON, N.J., Sept. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Though virtually everyone has likely heard of BOTOX®, New Jersey-based board-certified dermatologist Dr. Robin Levin knows that being aware of something and benefiting from it are two different things, which is why she's inviting new patients to a BOTOX® Lunch Party from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 13, at the Hammonton office of South Jersey Skin Care & Laser Center.
While at the event, patients who have not yet experienced the effects of BOTOX® for themselves can learn more about the injectable and receive injections of their own.
For this day only, new BOTOX® patients can get injections for $10 a unit. Depending on where it is injected, a treatment session can involve anywhere from half a dozen to two dozen or more units of BOTOX® Cosmetic.
There are many applications for BOTOX® Cosmetic, which is primarily used as an FDA-approved solution for three signs of aging on the face: horizontal forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and lateral canthal lines, more familiarly known as crow's feet.
BOTOX® works by stopping muscles associated with these folds and wrinkles from contracting, preventing the lines from appearing and growing even deeper. The effects are both gradual and temporary, with skin smoothing in the days and weeks after a treatment session, muscles staying at rest for months, and then motion slowly returning to the treated area. In addition to the three primary applications, BOTOX® Cosmetic can also be used for a range of "off-label" uses, which are established treatments that include addressing neck bands, bunny lines and gummy smiles.
Patients who want to keep the relaxed and refreshed look that comes from BOTOX® injections can enjoy the benefits long term by scheduling touch-up or maintenance visits, as the prescription cosmetic is both safe and effective when used repeatedly over time. In fact, there is some evidence to show that results can improve the longer BOTOX® is applied with regularity, since the muscles basically grow accustomed to staying at rest.
The BOTOX® Lunch Party will also include opportunities for $75 dermaplaning sessions. Dermaplaning involves a specialist using a scalpel to make light, quick strokes on the facial skin, which clears it of fine hairs and encourages a reduction in dead skin cells and increase in the production of beneficial skin elements. The ultimate result is a vibrant, fresher look with skin that naturally radiates a healthy and youthful glow.
Neither treatment takes long, which is why they can be offered in a window typically reserved for lunch in the middle of the day.
