Dr. Stern has extensive experience in BOTOX® Cosmetic
injection treatments, and is one of the top cosmetic BOTOX® Cosmetic
injectors in the Seattle area and Washington State. Dr. Stern
is an Instructor of the BOTOX® Cosmetic National Education
Faculty. In addition, because of his expertise Dr. Stern
was selected as the only Botox Cosmetic® injector in Washington
State to participate in the nationwide One
World Sight Project ”Botoxathon” to
help cure blindness in Africa.
BOTOX® Cosmetic has been used for many years in the treatment
of eyelid and facial spasms. Most recently, BOTOX® Cosmetic injections
has been shown to be effective in reducing or eliminating forehead
lines,
frown lines,
crows feet around the eyes, lipstick lines, and wrinkles and webbing
of the neck. BOTOX® Cosmetic injections can also be used in many patients
to create a "brow lift" effect
without surgery.
In addition, BOTOX® injections have
been shown to effectively reduce excessive sweating, an uncomfortable
condition known as hyperhydrosis. Recent
studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of BOTOX® in reducing the frequency of migraine and tension headaches in
some individuals.
While not a cure for these types of headaches, BOTOX® injections seems to be a useful form of treatment for these often
debilitating conditions.
Dr. Stern finds that BOTOX® Cosmetic injection is more
likely to have a long lasting effect when a series of injections
are given over a course of approximately 12 to 18 months. In many
cases, Botox® Cosmetic may enhance the rejuvenating effects
of laser resurfacing. For the ultimate wrinkle reduction effect,
BOTOX® Cosmetic may be injected along with Juvederm®,
Restylane®, Perlane®, Radiesse® Collagen,
Cosmoplast®, or other
fillers.
Why choose our office for your facial injections? Dr. Stern is
an instructor of both the Radiesse® Medical Education Faculty
and the Botox® Cosmetic National Education Faculty, and instructs
other physicians from around the U.S. in the proper facial injection
techniques of these products. In addition, unlike many offices
in the Seattle area, Dr. Stern performs all of the facial injections
himself.
