More Men Are Now Getting Botox

Tag Archives: botox

It would be a mistake to think that Botox med spa facial anti-aging treatment appeals exclusively to women. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, almost 467,000 men received the Botox injectable treatment last year, and this signifies an almost 400 percent increase since 2000.

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Botox and other aesthetic procedures to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities.

Men in 35-65 Age Group are Choosing Botox

Analysts report an increasing number of men receiving cosmetic treatments. Men are witnessing their wives receive various aesthetic treatments and achieve marked improvements in their skin. These dramatic results are inspiring men to seek cosmetic treatments as well.

It is no longer considered inappropriate for men to get Botox. An increasing number of men attest to trying Botox or at least considering it.

Men in the age bracket of 35 to 65 years usually seek Botox injectables.

Botox experts concur on some aspects such as the men receiving Botox dermal fillers in their practices are usually aged between 35 and 65 years, they commonly work white-collar jobs in the fields of law, fashion, business or art, and typically receive Botox injections in their eyebrows and around their eyes almost three or four times annually. However, the similarities stop here.

Botox treatment providers explain that it is not possible to determine the specific type of man who seeks Botox.

Males in All Demographics Seek Botox Treatment

Men from various ethnic groups such as Asian, Caucasian, and African are all choosing Botox injectables. Analysts elaborate that men from different professions ranging from politicians to Athletes are seeking Botox as well.

There is no specific male demographic for Botox use. This indicates that Botox injectables are moving beyond every sexual, racial and demographic constraint to appeal to all types of men.

For men receiving Botox injections, workplace competition is a significant driving force. Plastic surgeons concur that women usually seek Botox to look younger. However, competitiveness is a significant, if not the most significant, factor behind men receiving Botox treatments.

Dr. Daniel C. Mills, President of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery explains that men are getting more procedures done as they want to appear and remain competitive in a workforce that places a premium on youth. Experts elaborate a person has better chances of competing if they have a more youthful appearance.

Sources of Influence

Partners and spouses are encouraging the men in their lives to undergo these procedures. Men want to pin it on their spouses citing ‘‘I don’t care, but my wife/girlfriend wants me to do it.’ However, a majority of doctors believe that when men see the Botox treatment outcomes of their partners, they are more motivated to try the procedure.

Another significant influence is social media and online dating.

Experts state that social media has played an important role in men wanting to look good which has increased the number of men receiving Botox treatments. Doctors even report instances of men coming in for Botox injections simply because they want to upload their picture on a social media platform or dating site.

The human body has between two to five million sweat glands. The palms, underarms, face, and soles of the feet contain a higher density of sweat glands. Upon overheating, the nervous system changes the blood flow and breathing patterns in response.

This prompts the sweat glands to emit chemical compounds and water to cool the body down. But hyperhidrosis (excess sweating) affects millions of people in the US.

Prescription drugs can help in the treatment of excess sweating. However, these medications are associated with numerous side effects ranging from blurred vision to dry mouth and constipation. Experts say that Botox med spa treatment can help address this problem when administered appropriately.

Motykie Medical Spa, led by the accomplished board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Botox and other aesthetic procedures to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations in this area of The Golden State.

Botox Injectable Procedure

In the past, Botox has been used to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by paralyzing the underlying muscles temporarily. Botox blocks the neurotransmitters that signal the muscles to contract.

This same process can help stop sweating. However, in this case, Botox is placed in the skin instead of within the underlying muscle to prevent the same neurotransmitters from sending signals to the sweat glands.

The doctor will ask the patient to point out where on their face they sweat most profusely. These areas usually include the upper lip, nose, and temples. Then the doctor will inject Botox precisely into these facial sites.

The amount of Botox injected will be approximately the same as used for paralyzing facial muscles to address facial creases and wrinkles.

The Botox med spa treatment time is under ten minutes, and the procedure is only marginally painful. The outcomes take around one week to establish.

Injecting Botox into the face carefully is vital as it can leak into the muscle causing asymmetry in the face. Therefore, it is crucial to choose a well-qualified doctor for this procedure.

How does it Work?

Botulinum toxin A is the primary component of Botox. This is a strong bacterium which paralyzes the nerves temporarily. The treatment provider will inject Botox in exact amounts into the targeted underarm region.

The neurotoxin will immediately begin to obstruct communication signals between the sweat glands and the nerves that control these glands. Consequently, there will be a decrease in profuse sweating as the overactive sweat gland will stop functioning.  

Furthermore, the excess sweat eliminated through Botox use does not accumulate in any other location in the body. Botox simply stops the production of sweat in the targeted area. But untreated areas will continue to sweat as earlier. It is important for the patient to make a well-considered decision in consultation with an experienced Botox provider.

Ideal Candidates

The Botox provider should explain to the patient that Botox has received FDA approval only for treating excessive underarm sweating. The FDA states that there is no conclusive evidence that Botox can safely and effectively be administered to treat profuse sweating in other areas of the body, including the face.

A modified type of Botox med spa treatment could offer sustainable pain relief without any harmful effects.

The University of Sheffield and the Hospital for Sick Children (UCL) Toronto elaborates in a new study that it could potentially substitute opioid medications as a safe and successful treatment for chronic pain.

This study was published in the Science Translational Medicine and funded by the Medical Research Council. In this research, scientists broke down the botulinum toxin molecule and reconstructed using an opioid known as dermorphin to develop Derm-BOT. This is a compound which effectively targets and suppresses pain signals emanating from the neurons located in the spinal cord.

Motykie Medical Spa, led by judicious board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Botox and other aesthetic procedures to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and other towns and cities in this region of SoCal.

How it Works?

Pain management targets key neurons in the spinal cord because these neurons sense pain directly and send signals indicating pain to the brain.

The study’s co-corresponding author, Professor Steve Hunt (UCL Cell & Developmental Biology) explains that when injected into the spine, Derm-BOT treats chronic pain such as pain due to nerve damage. Furthermore, it also helps avoid the addiction and tolerance which is frequently associated with the use of opioid medications.

Professor Hunt further elaborates that Derm-BOT does not impact muscles in the same manner as botulinum toxin med spa treatment does when used to mitigate wrinkles. However, it does obstruct nerve pain for up to four months without any impact on normal pain responses. He states that Derm-BOT could change the manner in which chronic pain is treated by eliminating daily opioid intake requirements.

Millions of people across the globe suffer from chronic pain ranging from ‘moderate to severe’ intensity. It is a rampant social and health challenge which adversely affects the quality of life.

While opioids such as fentanyl and morphine are believed to be the best in pain management, there exists negligible evidence that using these drugs in the long-run can effectively treat pain. The reason for this occurrence is that the body becomes tolerant to the repetitive drug use over an extensive period.

In a paradox, opioids may be responsible for heightening the body’s pain sensitivity. Furthermore, opioid drugs can impact the brain’s reward sites leading to addiction.

Safe and Non-Habit Forming

Derm-BOT is relatively safe to produce, non-toxic, and non-addictive.

Dermorphin aims at and attaches to the opioid receptors on the neurons’ surfaces. This enables the Derm-BOT compound to access the cells and deliver the botulinum ‘warhead.’ This stops the release of the neurotransmitter for a period which silences the cells that transmit pain signals to the brain.

This study took place over a five year period where 200 mice were used to simulate the early stages of human inflammatory and neuropathic pain. These mice were treated with SP-BOT (a substance P-modified botulinum molecule), morphine, or Derm-BOT. The researchers monitored the response of the mice to track their pain reaction and investigated the locations and binding characteristics of the botulinum compounds.

Botox 

Botox is used medically in the treatment of specific muscular conditions as well as cosmetically to eliminate wrinkles by paralyzing the muscles temporarily.

 

Botox med spa injections include a neurotoxin known as botulinum toxin that is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.

 

Motykie Medical Spa, led by board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie, provides Botox injections to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities across the landscape.

 

Botox Highlights

 

  • Botox is the most sought-after non-surgical cosmetic treatment, with over six million Botox treatments performed annually.
  • Botox is a neurotoxin produced by Clostridium botulinum which is a mostly inactive and non-toxic organism found in nature.
  • Botulinum toxin helps mitigate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by paralyzing the underlying muscles.
  • Botox can also be useful in the treatment of migraines, excessive sweating, muscular disorders, and certain bladder and bowel conditions.

 

Function

 

In human beings, the botulinum toxin can only be injected in tiny amounts. It works by inhibiting the signals from the nerve cells from reaching the muscles, effectively paralyzing them.

 

For the muscles to contract, nerves release a chemical messenger known as acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter), at the point where the nerve endings and muscles connect. Acetylcholine attaches to the receptors on the muscle cells causing them to contract or become shorter.

 

The botulinum toxin that is injected prevents the acetylcholine release. This prevents the muscle cells from contracting. This toxin leads to a decrease in abnormal muscle contraction enabling the muscles to become less stiff.

 

Uses

 

Botulinum toxin is mainly used to treat the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the facial skin. Other than cosmetic applications, Botox is also used in the treatment of various medical conditions such as migraines, profuse sweating, eye squints, and leaky bladders.

 

Botulinum toxin is presently used in the treatment of more than 20 medical conditions while more applications are still being understood. Botulinum toxin currently has the FDA approval for the following medical applications:

 

  • Blepharospasm (spasm of the eyelids)
  • Chronic migraine
  • Idiopathic rotational cervical dystonia (severe neck and shoulder muscle spasms)
  • Post-stroke upper limb spasticity
  • Hemifacial spasm
  • Severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
  • Canthal lines (crow’s feet)
  • Strabismus (crossed eyes)
  • Detrusor (bladder wall muscle) overactivity – causing urinary incontinence
  • Overactive bladder
  • Glabellar lines (frown lines between the eyebrows)

 

Botulinum toxin is used in the off-label (not approved) treatment of the following conditions:

 

  • Achalasia (a throat condition that makes swallowing challenging).
  • Sialorrhea (producing excessive saliva).
  • Anal fissure and anismus (dysfunction of the anal sphincter).
  • Allergic rhinitis (hay fever).

 

Botox – FDA Approved for Canthal Lines

 

Lateral canthal lines or crow’s feet are the lines that extend from the outer corner of the eyes. These lines usually develop due to repetitive facial movements such as frowning, smiling or squinting, or other facial expressions. These expressions cause the underlying facial muscles to contract while the outer skin develops folds. This could lead to permanent fine lines and wrinkles over time.

 

In order to mitigate the appearance of canthal lines, the treatment provider will use a Botox injection directly into the overactive muscle that is leading to the wrinkle development.

 

Motykie Medical Spa receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas in this area of The Golden State for Botox injections.

Botox is used in cosmetic surgery to temporarily arrest muscle activity and Botox and Brilliant Distinctions | Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angelesthus reduce the appearance of wrinkles. The injections can reduce the appearance of crow’s feet, lines that appear near the eyes and forehead wrinkles that appear when you raise your eyebrows. Botox stops signals from the muscles to the nerves. When the muscles receive signals from a neurotransmitter released by the nerves, the muscles shorten. Botox ensures these signals are not received. As the muscle movement is currently blocked, the wrinkles relax.
Botox also prevents new lines from forming. It can also be used for medical purposes and is used to treat the following conditions:

  1. Uncontrollable blinking or Blepharospasm
  2. Cervical dystonia: This is a neurological condition, wherein the person undergoes neck and shoulder muscle spasms and contractions involuntarily.
  3. Hyperhidrosis.: This is a condition where the patient experiences excessive sweating without any triggers such as hot temperatures or exercising.
  4. Migraines: Botox can even be used to reduce the frequency of migraines. However, it can only be used in those patients who experience chronic migraines that occur for 15 days or more and last for over four hours.
  5. Bladder disorders: Botox can also be used to treat bladder disorders such as urine leakage and an overactive bladder, conditions that occur due to multiple sclerosis or a spinal cord injury.

Botox is usually applied by an injection. After reducing the intensity of the powder by diluting it in sodium chloride, the toxin is injected directly into the facial tissue. It generally takes a day or two to fully take effect, but this can vary from person to person. The effects of the botulinum toxin on an unborn baby have not been explored and if you are pregnant, it is recommended you avoid it. If you have displayed an adverse reaction to it, you must also avoid it at all costs.
While the risks involved with Botox is minimal, however, if not injected correctly, it can spread to surrounding regions and cause a variety of problems such as excessive tearing, a crooked smile or drooping eyelids. This can occur even when receiving the injection for cosmetic reasons.
The Botox cosmetic can also spread and cause symptoms than resemble botulism. Get immediate medical attention if you begin feeling any of the following symptoms after receiving your injection.

  1. Muscle weakness: This could imply that the toxin has spread out the area of administration. This could also lead to drooping eyelids and blurred vision and slurred speech. If you feel like you are suffering from this, avoid driving a car or operating heavy machinery.
  2. Swallowing trouble: This could lead to a life-threatening situation especially if the toxin has affected the associated muscles.

These, however, are very unlikely if administered by a skilled doctor like Gary Motykie.

Board Certified Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Gary Motykie, spoke on this subject on the Marie Show!

Botox is probably the most popular anti-aging treatment in the world at present. Almost everyone is aware about the “instant” benefits of Botox to make facial lines and wrinkles disappear. However, Botox has much more to offer than just cosmetic benefits. In fact, it was originally used only for medical purposes and only later its cosmetic benefits were discovered.

An Overview of Botox

Botulinum toxin, the chemical that makes Botox, was discovered more than a century ago. It took nearly thirty years of scientific testing to evaluate the medical benefits of Botox for human beings. In 1980, the treatment was first injected to treat the problem of ‘crossed eyes’ and uncontrolled blinking. During the trials, doctors noticed that Botox treatment produced a cosmetic benefit of reduction of wrinkles and lines around the eyes. The treatment received approval from FDA in 2002. At present, Botox is used in over 4.7 million cosmetic procedures every year.
Botox works on the principle of blocking neuromuscular communication, which allows an overactive muscle to relax temporarily. It is important to understand that the chemical used in Botox is one of the most powerful and lethal substances. Extremely diluted forms of the chemical are used in Botox injections. The treatment must be taken from an experienced Botox professional or cosmetic surgeon for a safe and effective outcome.

Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis

Serious conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS) involve muscular dysfunction. Muscle function can become disrupted in two ways. They can either lose their activity and become paralyzed, or they can become overactive and develop cramping or spasticity.
In case of MS, there is a communication breakdown between the muscles and nerves. This effect is known as spasticity. Muscles want to cramp all the time due to the disruption of communication with the nervous system. Botox can address this condition when the medication is injected directly into the problematic muscles.

Treatment of Bladder Control Issues

The urinary bladder is basically one large muscle that works quite like a water balloon, and holds urine until we are ready to go to the restroom. The bladder is able to hold urine for a fair amount of time and releases it when required due to a communication process between the brain and the bladder.
If the bladder muscles become spastic, urine leakage can occur without the patient’s own control. Oral medications to treat this condition can have potential side effects, while surgical treatments are complex and not perfect. Botox can be a simpler and effective solution to calm down the overactive bladder. One in six adults suffers from some kind of bladder over-activity, and Botox provides a safe solution with minimal side effects.

Other Botox Treatments

Botox is also approved for treatment of various other medical conditions such as excessive sweating, jaw pain and chronic migraines. Botox injections can be administered within a few minutes, and the effects can last for about four to six months. A typical Botox treatment would cost around $200-250 for each treatment area. Safety, effectiveness and minimal side effects make Botox a treatment of choice for thousands of patients.

Botox for Crow’s Feet
Botox has been in use for more than a decade for the cosmetic treatment of frown lines between the eyebrows. It was approved by the FDA for this purpose in 2002. Botox has also been used for many years with FDA approval to treat several medical conditions such as excessive sweating under the arms, chronic headaches and migraine, and eyelid spasms. In 2013, the FDA has given its approval to Botox for the cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes.
Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles and surrounding communities, who may like to reduce their facial signs of aging in a non-surgical manner, may consider Botox at Dr. Motykie’s medspa facility. While facelift plastic surgery has several advantages over Botox, but patients who are looking for only minor enhancements and a simple, non-surgical procedure, may be ideal candidates to receive Botox treatment. It can reduce the appearance of frown lines and crow’s feet from the face very effectively.

Benefits of Botox

 
Botox is produced from the botulinum neurotoxin, which is considered one of the most potent and lethal biological agents in the world. It was discovered more than a century ago, and scientists spent several decades to determine its potential medical and cosmetic benefits. Botox uses the toxin in highly diluted quantities to achieve the desired outcomes. Ever since Botox was approved as a cosmetic treatment by the FDA, it has emerged as one of the most popular non-surgical treatments around the world. Some of its key advantages are as follows:

  • Botox is FDA approved and completely safe when applied in recommended doses by a qualified Botox provider.
  • The entire treatment can be completed in less than an hour. In some cases, the treatment process may last as little as 15 minutes.
  • The procedure does not involve anesthesia.
  • Most patients experience very minor pain or discomfort during the procedure.
  • The procedure does not involve any downtime, and patients can resume their regular activities or go back to work immediately.
  • The treatment avoids all the risks and potential complications that are usually associated with a surgery.

FDA Approval for Crow’s Feet

Crow’s feet, or lateral canthal lines, as they are called clinically, refer to the fine lines radiating from the far outer corner of the eye. These lines are usually caused due to facial expressions or repetitive actions such as smiling, squinting or frowning. These actions cause the underlying muscles to contract, and the outer skin gets folded. Over a period of time, these repetitive actions can cause permanent lines and wrinkles.
To reduce these wrinkles, Botox is injected directly into the muscle that is causing the wrinkle. Botox cuts off the communication between the muscle and the nervous system, causing it to relax. This prevents the formation of muscle even when the person smiles. With the FDA approval of Botox for reduction of crow’s feet, it is now possible to enhance facial appearance further without the need for surgery.
Dr. Motykie provides this treatment at his medspa for patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and nearby areas. FDA has clearly stated that Botox is an effective temporary treatment to reduce wrinkles forming near the eyes, which are commonly known as crow’s feet. Results with Botox may last for anywhere between three and six months, after which the treatment can be repeated for prolonged benefits.

Botox Study

Botox is manufactured by an Irvine, California based company called Allergan, Inc. Allergan conducted an extensive study involving two large groups of adult participants. One of the groups, comprising 833 adults, was randomly assigned to receive a Botox placebo injection. Following the treatment, this group revealed a significant reduction in the appearance of crow’s feet in comparison to the other group that was left untreated. The successful results of this study contributed to the evidence reviewed by the FDA before deciding on the approval of Botox for crow’s feet.

Patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or those who have severe plaque, tartar, gum disease, dental decay, or enamel demineralization may not be good candidates. Results of teeth whitening may last for up to two years with good dental hygiene practices.

Injectables

Dermal filler injections are an increasingly popular, non-surgical option to reduce the signs of aging from the face. Facial skin may develop wrinkles and lose elasticity and volume due to depletion of natural collagen. This may occur due to aging, sun damage, environmental exposure, genetic factors, medications or other reasons.
Motykie Medical Spa provides FDA approved cosmetic filler treatments that are based on hyaluronic acid. These include Juvederm Ultra, Juvederm Ultra Plus, Restylane, and Perlane. Hyaluronic acid stimulates collagen beneath the skin and acts as a filler to add volume to the facial skin and reduce wrinkles and lines.
