Host: Joined now by Dr. Dr. Tomar. Tell us about Botox.
Dr. Tomar: Botox is botulitum toxin. It is used to relax muscles and relaxing of the muscles decreases the appearance of the lines that are caused by muscle action. So it is used in areas like forehead frown lines. Those are the traditional areas where we have been using Botox.
Host: Are there any advances in Botox technology. And if so, how do they affect patients?
Dr. Tomar: Yes, there are several new advancements in Botox technology. We now have Xeomin and Dysport available to us here in the United States.
