Botulinum Toxin Injections Pearls

  • Rona Z. Silkiss

Abstract

For patients undergoing Botox injections in the area of the procerus and glabellar region who are not undergoing filler injection simultaneously, it is often advantageous not only to inject into the origin and insertion of the muscle, but to use part of the Botox volume to “fill” the vertical glabellar rhytids. This provides for an appreciated, albeit short-term, improvement in the rhytids appearance prior to the onset of the Botox effect.
