Top Botox in NYC: Smooth Wrinkles and Rejuvenate Your Look

Botox for TMJ and Medical Applications

Beyond wrinkle reduction, Botox is also used for medical conditions, including: 

✔ Botox TMJ Disorder Relief – Botox relaxes the masseter muscles to reduce jaw tension, teeth grinding, and headaches.
✔ Migraine Treatment – Botox can significantly reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines.
✔ Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating) – Botox blocks sweat glands in the underarms, hands, and feet to prevent excessive perspiration.
✔ Facial Symmetry Correction – Botox can be strategically placed to enhance balance and facial harmony.

• Stay upright for 4 hours post-injection to prevent migration.

Is Botox Safe?

Yes! Botox is FDA-approved and has been extensively studied for over two decades. When administered by an experienced provider like Dr. Schwarzburg, the risks are minimal, and the results are precise and natural.

Can Botox Prevent Wrinkles?

Yes! Preventative Botox relaxes muscles before deep wrinkles form, helping younger patients delay signs of aging and maintain smooth skin longer.

Can Botox Lift the Brows?

Yes! A Botox brow lift subtly elevates drooping eyebrows by relaxing the muscles that pull them downward, creating a more youthful, refreshed appearance.

Can Botox Slim the Face?

Yes! Masseter Botox reduces the size of overdeveloped jaw muscles, slimming the face and creating a more contoured V-shape.

Does Botox Help With a Gummy Smile?

Yes! Botox relaxes the upper lip, reducing excessive gum exposure when smiling for a more balanced smile appearance.

Can Botox Correct a Downturned Mouth?

Yes! DAO Botox (Depressor Anguli Oris Botox) lifts downturned mouth corners, helping to soften a resting frown and create a more neutral, youthful expression.

Can Botox Treat Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)?

Yes! Botox blocks nerve signals to overactive sweat glands, dramatically reducing sweating in the underarms, hands, feet, and scalp for up to 6 months.

What Is Baby Botox?

Baby Botox uses smaller doses of Botox for subtle, natural-looking wrinkle prevention while maintaining full facial expression. It’s ideal for first-time patients or those wanting a softer result.

Can Botox Help With Teeth Grinding (Bruxism)?

Yes! Botox injected into the masseter muscles relaxes jaw tension, reducing teeth grinding, TMJ pain, and headaches, while also slimming the jawline.

What’s the Difference Between Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Daxxify?

At Skinly Aesthetics, we offer multiple neuromodulators tailored to your needs:

• Botox: The most well-known option with reliable, long-lasting results.
• Dysport: Spreads more than Botox, making it ideal for larger areas like the forehead.
• Xeomin: Lacks protein additives, reducing the risk of Botox resistance.
• Daxxify: A new, longer-lasting neuromodulator that provides results for up to 6 months.

Dr. Schwarzburg will determine the best choice based on your anatomy and goals.

Can Botox Be Combined With Other Treatments?

Yes! Many patients combine Botox with dermal fillers, micro-coring, microneedling or laser treatments for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation. During your consultation, Dr. Schwarzburg will create a personalized treatment plan to achieve your best results.

Does Botox Hurt?

Most patients describe Botox injections as a small pinch. At Skinly Aesthetics, we use ultra-fine needles to minimize discomfort. Numbing cream and ice can be applied for extra comfort.

What Happens If I Stop Getting Botox?

Your muscles will gradually regain movement, and your wrinkles will return to their natural state over time. However, Botox will not make wrinkles worse—they will simply reappear as they were before treatment.

Is There an Age Limit for Botox?

Botox is FDA-approved for patients 18 and older, with most starting preventative Botox in their mid-to-late 20s to slow wrinkle formation. There’s no upper age limit as long as the patient is in good health.
