BOTOX™ has been a miracle cure for many sweating problems, with BOTOX™ treatment people are able to stay dry for up to six months. BOTOX™ is injected under the skin in the axilla (arm pit) where it blocks the action of nerves on the sweat glands so there is no perspiration.

The BOTOX™ is slowly broken down, but the effect may last for six months. This procedure has been done for years and has been very successful, with few side effects. Sweating has been reduced on the face, palms and in the armpits. Treatments are fast and cause little discomfort.

Breast Lift
A non surgical breast lift has recently been developed by a Canadian dermatologist. Dr. Kevin Smith used Botox™, injected into the chest wall muscle, the pectorals minor, to achieve the results. The best candidates are women 30 to 35 years of age with an A or B sized breast. The effects, which last three to fours months, help lift sagging breasts by altering muscle pull on the breast suspension system. In Essex County, LaserLooks offer the procedure at both locations finding many women wanting the results without the surgery.

Botulinum Toxin Type A (BTX-A) for Migraine
Don't Suffer from Migraines Any Longer!

Migraines are an episodic disorder with neurologic, gastrointestinal and autonomic symptoms. Over 17 percent of women and six percent of men suffer from migraines. Acute and prophylactic therapies are ineffective for many and a long-acting, well-tolerated, prophylactic therapy is needed. Botox can be injected into the forehead and temple muscles. In testing, response was scored as complete (elimination of headaches); partial improvement (at least 50 percent reduction in frequency or severity of headaches) and non-responders (less than 50 percent reduction in frequency or severity of headaches, or lost to follow-up, which exceeded on year.

96 patients (average age 41.6-9.0 years) were treated: 49 (51percent) had complete improvement; 27 (28 percent) had partial improvement; 20 (21 percent) had no response. Average dose was 25.7 units and benefits persisted for six months for complete responders and four-five months for partial responders. Those with partial response had more frequent headaches at baseline compared to the complete responders. Adverse effects were limited to transient local pain at the injection site and Ecchymosis.

BTX-A is a safe, effective therapeutic for Prophylactic Treatment of many cases of migraine.
