Baby Botox

Baby Botox, also called micro-Botox, is a trending version of Botox. Baby Botox works the same as traditional Botox but with smaller doses.  This service is performed by Dr, Mueller and she will do a small number of injections in specific areas on the face. Once injected, the face looks younger and smoother. With Baby Botox, there are limited effects on the face, with less dramatic results versus a traditional Botox treatment. Baby Botox is used on facial areas that are more prone to wrinkles or fine lines. These targeted areas include the wrinkling at the forehead, crow’s feet, brow furrows, jawbone, lips, frown lines and neck.  A good candidate for Baby Botox is someone who may not have had Botox before and wants to try it out. Another reason someone might get Baby Botox is if they are in their twenties and want to prevent fine lines before they start to appear.

Please take a few minutes to watch this great video that Dr. Muller put together featuring Baby Botox:
