Will Botox get rid of my wrinkles under the eye?

Dr. Dean Kane Q & A.

Q. Will Botox get rid of my wrinkles under the eye? I am 26 and have very tired looking eyes. I was looking into getting blepharoplasty in the next year or two, but before doing a drastic surgery, are there other options for me?

A. ​Without photos it is most difficult to comment. It is best for you to consult with a well experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon or Facial ENT surgeon.

​There are so many considerations for wrinkles under the eyes such as:

1. ​Sun damage,
2. Skin thickness,
3. ​Eye shape; where the eyelid corners meet,
4. ​Bone shape and projection,
5. ​Bags, fat, swelling,
6. ​And others

Botox under the eyelid except in special circumstances may create worsening of eyelid wrinkles and relaxation bulging of the fat bags.
​
​Consider:
​1. ZO Obagi Skin Health using retinoids,
​2. Chemical and laser peels,
​3. Superficial filler,
​4. Deep filler,
​5. And finally blepharoplasty.
​
​I hope this has been helpful. All the best!

What is the Difference between Botox & Dysport? From your Maryland Cosmetic Surgeon

Botox and Dysport are both injectable muscle relaxers that will help smooth out the appearance of wrinkles on your face and around your lips. During these “local” non-surgical procedures, Botox or Dysport is injected into the muscles to reduce the movements of the muscles which causes the wrinkling of the skin. Deep creases between the eyebrows and across the forehead and crow’s feet around the eyes and along the lip lines can be softened by naturally relaxing the muscles that cause those wrinkles. Your youthful appearance can be restored by these non-surgical procedures in a matter of minutes offering a more bright eye appearance when properly performed by a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. Dean Kane.

So, what is the difference between Botox and Dysport? Both products are neurotoxins that work the same way to controllably weaken muscles from squeezing and forming wrinkles. Two different companies have produced very similar products to deliver the same wonderful results. Comparing the two products is like comparing Coke versus Pepsi. At the end of the day they’re both a coca cola product. With Botox and Dysport, the differences are so minor, at the end of the day all that matters is your skin will be smoother and wrinkle free for a 3-4 month period. Both will require you to return at least 3 times a year to your doctor’s office to maintain that smooth forehead and a non-surgical brow lift.

Dysport versus Botox: Confused? Think of Coke and Pepsi: Dr. Dean Kane of Maryland Explains their differences in reducing wrinkles around the eyes, brows and crows feet.

Many Baltimore patients of Dr. Dean Kane from the Center of Cosmetic Surgery express their confusion by the two muscle relaxers Dysport and Botox. Dr. Kane tries to explain the differences very simply: the two muscle relaxers do very similar effects, but have minor differences. Dysport is made by the company Medicis who also make the well known fillers Restylane and Perlane. Botox is made by Allergan who produce their fillers Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus. In essence the two companies are making similar products that do similar rejuvenating effects. Dysport has been shown to last up till 4 months and begins its effects quicker, within 3-4 days. Botox is more well known because it has been on the market much longer. Botox effects last up to 3 months and can take approximately  14 days to achieve its full strength. Both Botox and Dysport are used around the eyes to reduce the wrinkle lines on the forehead, between the eye brows and the crow’s feet. Both can also be used around the mouth to reduce lipstick lines.

 For consumers having two companies in essence producing similar products is very similar to Coke versus Pepsi. Just like Coke and Pepsi one week one is on sale and the next the other is offering a promotion. More choices to the consumers mean competition between the two companies and greater promotions.  Right now Medicis is offering a wonderful $50 mail in Rebate up to 3 fillers of Restylane and Perlane or $150 money back. Medicis is also trying to get consumers to try Dysport and created the Dysport Challenge: Love it or Leave it. It’s a win win for the consumer. If you try Dysport, the consumer gets back $75 on their first treatment. The consumer has to go on line 15 days later and indicate whether they love Dysport or hate it. In either case, the consumer gets back another $75 rebate on their next Dysport OR Botox treatment depending on their response. The bottom line: Try it you May like it!! But you need to have the first treatment before April 30th to be eligible for the mail in rebates. To help you decide even more, Dr. Kane has offered his own Dysport and Restylane/Perlane promotions to all his Maryland, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Eastern Shore and Washington D.C. patients. So it’s a win win win!
