BOTOX® Cosmetic
(onabotulinumtoxinA)
Important Information

Indication
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in people 18 to 65 years of age for a short period of time (temporary).

IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION

BOTOX® Cosmetic may cause serious side effects that can be life threatening. Call your doctor or get medical help right away if you have any of these problems any time (hours to weeks) after injection of
BOTOX® Cosmetic:
•
Problems swallowing, speaking, or breathing, due to weakening of associated muscles, can be severe and result in loss of life. You are at the highest risk if these problems are pre-existing before injection. Swallowing problems may last for several months
•
Spread of toxin effects. The effect of botulinum toxin may affect areas away from the injection site and cause serious symptoms including: loss of strength and all-over muscle weakness, double vision, blurred vision and drooping eyelids, hoarseness or change or loss of voice (dysphonia), trouble saying words clearly (dysarthria), loss of bladder control, trouble breathing, trouble swallowing. If this happens, do not drive a car, operate machinery, or do other dangerous activities

The dose of BOTOX® Cosmetic is not the same as, or comparable to, another botulinum toxin product.

There has not been a confirmed serious case of spread of toxin effect when BOTOX® Cosmetic has been used at the recommended dose to treat frown lines.

Serious and/or immediate allergic reactions have been reported. They include: itching, rash, red itchy welts, wheezing, asthma symptoms, or dizziness or feeling faint. Tell your doctor or get medical help right away if you are wheezing or have asthma symptoms, or if you become dizzy or faint.

Do not take BOTOX® Cosmetic if you: are allergic to any of the ingredients in BOTOX® Cosmetic (see Medication Guide for ingredients); had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product such as Myobloc® (rimabotulinumtoxinB), Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA), or Xeomin® (incobotulinumtoxinA); have a skin infection at the planned injection site.

Tell your doctor about all your muscle or nerve conditions, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease), myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome, as you may be at increased risk of serious side effects including severe dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) and respiratory compromise (difficulty breathing) from typical doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic.

Tell your doctor about all your medical conditions, including: plans to have surgery; had surgery on your face; weakness of forehead muscles, such as trouble raising your eyebrows; drooping eyelids; any other abnormal facial change; are pregnant or plan to become pregnant (it is not known if BOTOX® Cosmetic can harm your unborn baby); are breast-feeding or plan to breast-feed (it is not known if BOTOX® Cosmetic passes into breast milk).

Human albumin and spread of viral diseases. BOTOX® Cosmetic contains albumin, a protein component of human blood. The potential risk of spreading viral diseases [eg, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)] via human serum albumin is extremely rare. No cases of viral diseases or CJD have ever been reported in association with human serum albumin.

Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal products. Using BOTOX® Cosmetic with certain other medicines may cause serious side effects. Do not start any new medicines until you have told your doctor that you have received BOTOX® Cosmetic in the past.

Especially tell your doctor if you: have received any other botulinum toxin product in the last 4 months; have received injections of botulinum toxin, such as Myobloc®, Dysport®, or Xeomin® in the past (be sure your doctor knows exactly which product you received); have recently received an antibiotic by injection; take muscle relaxants; take an allergy or cold medicine; or take a sleep medicine.

Other side effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic include: dry mouth, discomfort or pain at the injection site, tiredness, headache, neck pain, and eye problems: double vision, blurred vision, decreased eyesight, drooping eyelids, swelling of your eyelids, and dry eyes.

For more information refer to the Medication Guide or talk with your doctor.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit http://www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Please see BOTOX® Cosmetic full Product Information including Boxed Warning and Medication Guide.

CB Skin Secrets offers the Silhouette lift, see results of the clinic’s 1st Midface/Jowl lift

Oct1

If you have been hearing about Lifestyle lift and wanting to know if it is for real or are considering a face lift, you should come see me about Silhouette lift, offered at CB Skin Secrets!  This is a revolutionary procedure which is safe, affordable and does not require a hospital stay or general anesthesia.  Need to see it to believe it?  Below are before and after pictures of CB Skin Secrets 1st Silhouette Midface and Jowl patient.

Before Silhouette lift:

The procedure is done in clinic as an outpatient with local anesthetic in about an hour or so.  It is recommended that you have someone drive you home as postcare instructions include limited motion of the treated area (head turning, etc.).  Generally in 3-5 days you can return to most routine activities. Results last years and further tightening can be done if desired.  All this at a fraction of the cost of a traditional face lift, not to mention a less invasive procedure with less discomfort and less risk.  See more at silhouettelift.com and make your complimentary consultation with Dr. Stacey E. Whitehead online by clicking here or call 712-396-7899 to leave a message.  You can achieve your aesthetic goals right here in Council Bluffs, Iowa!

Silhouette lift results at CB Skin Secrets, Council Bluffs most complete skin rejuvenation clinic

Here are “before” photos for the first neck Silhouette lift from CB Skin Secrets.  Pretty great if I do say so myself!  The procedure takes only 20-40minutes in the clinic with local anesthesia and specialized sutures.  Recovery time is around 3-5 days generally and this involves a fraction of the time, pain, risk and cost of a traditional surgical lift procedure.

Now, get ready for the “after” pictures shown below!

The patient is thrilled with the improvement in skin tone and reduction of crepe paper like wrinkles throughout the neck (and decolletage, which was a great surprise and may not always be achieved)!  Do you want to see results like these?  Come see me at CB Skin Secrets, 201 Ridge Street suite 102 of the Doctor’s Building, Council Bluffs, Iowa 51503 712-396-7899.  Make your complimentary consultation appointment by clicking here.

Selphyl Tissue Regeneration available at CB Skin Secrets, Southwest Iowa’s most complete skin rejuvenation clinic

Jul21

Are you looking for a natural way to improve your skin? Selphyl is a great solution, because it comes from you! Selphyl injections utilize your own platelets and plasma obtained from a simple blood draw in the clinic. The fluid is quickly processed into a fibrin rich matrix and when injected into the skin, will add volume and ultimately produce more collagen, strength, resilience and a youthful glow. Problem areas of dryness, acne scars, lines, wrinkles or sunken areas are rejuvenated in a 20-30minute office procedure with minimal downtime. Generally a second procedure is done (at a discount!) in 3-8 weeks to give optimal results.

Look at this video for an example of what Selphyl can do. Then, go to the appointments page by clicking here or at CBSkinSecrets .com to set your appointment and prepare to enhance your appearance. Look over pre and post injection instructions before your visit on the patient resources page or by clicking here.

I have benefitted from this anti-aging technique myself! I see improvement in the dark circles and hollowness under my eyes, softening of odd contours of my temples and forehead, and fuller cheeks with diminishment of nasolabial folds and marrionette areas. My skin just looks and feels softer and fresh, see for yourself in my before and after photo below.
