Are you starting to pay more attention to the wrinkles across your forehead, the lines between your eyes, or your crow’s feet. When you start noticing lines on your face “at rest,” which means while having no facial expression, it’s the right time to start using a relaxing injectable like Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin to prevent wrinkles etching into your skin. The use of these products has been proven to take years off the age of your face, and they are very safe when administered by an experienced medical practitioner. Dr. Michelle Parsons has extensive experience injecting Botox, as well as Xeomin and Dysport. Dr. Parsons has been awarded with Diamond Level Injector status by Allergan, the makers of Botox.
Allergan awards the prestigious BOTOX Diamond Level Provider status only to centers that have the most extensive experience and BOTOX cases, ensuring the best treatment for patients. If you are interested in receiving treatment with Botox, you should seek the most experienced and qualified physician injector in your area. Dr. Parsons has the experience to consistently give you the results you want.
Typical areas treated with Botox are: around the eyes (crow's feet), the frown area and forehead, bunny lines on the nose, the lips, chin and the area around the corners of the mouth to turn the mouth corners upward. Neck bands can also be treated. Botox is also utilized to manage migraine headaches and can control excessive underarm sweating.
Resting B Face Keeps You Pretty
Many of our patients come in reporting the same concerns when it comes to addressing the lines around their eyes, forehead, and frown areas. Many say that they look angry, or sad, or they just don't like the excessive lines that form from facial expressions around their eyes, lips and forehead. That's why we came up with the Resting B Face to address all of those areas at once!
Many of you have already heard of the "lip flip," the Botox treatment that softens those pesky vertical lip lines around the mouth, often called "smokers lines" even when you've never smoked. The lip flip will soften the lines around the mouth and also enhance subtle fullness and smoothness to the lips themselves. The lip flip is included in the Resting B Face!
Another area that our patients often ask about is the neck and those bands that stick out at times. These prominent bands are platysmal bands. They are caused by the thin neck muscle, known as the platysma, that can separate from a continuous smooth sheet of muscle, into separated bands, that become visible when we strain our necks at times. By treating these bands with Botox, they will be softened and minimized, to restore a more youthful appearance of the neck.
Before and After Botox Platysmal Bands
These are the areas of the face and neck that can be treated with Botox and we are offering these areas as a full package treatment, which we are calling the Resting B Face. Most of our patients can be treated for the Resting B Face with 75 units of neuromodulator.

How Botox® Works
A combination of factors can cause facial lines. It’s not just about the cellular changes that may occur, or reduction of collagen, or damage caused by free radicals from the sun and the environment.
Repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines. BOTOX® Cosmetic works beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults – to help them look visibly smoother.
Moderate to Severe Frown Lines
When you frown or concentrate, the muscles between your brows contract, causing your skin to furrow and fold. Your specialist will inject these muscles to help make frown lines temporarily look better.
Moderate to Severe Crow's Feet
When you squint or smile, the muscles around your eyes contract, causing crow’s feet. Your specialist will inject these muscles to help make crow’s feet temporarily look better.
Moderate to Severe Forehead Lines
When you raise your eyebrows, the muscles on your forehead contract, causing skin to furrow and fold. Your specialist will inject these muscles to help make forehead lines temporarily look better.
What to Expect with Treatment?
Some patients receiving BOTOX® Cosmetic report the injections feel like a pinch. You may begin to notice a visible smoothing of frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines within 24 to 48 hours, with results lasting up to 4 months for moderate to severe frown lines in adults.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is not a permanent treatment. If you discontinue treatment the moderate to severe frown lines, crow's feet and forehead lines will gradually return.
A Product Backed by Thorough Research
Only BOTOX® Cosmetic is backed by more than 16 years of published studies. It uses a unique manufacturing process, and its potency is measured in units that cannot be compared to any other product. This is why there is no such thing as “generic” BOTOX® Cosmetic.

I had a Botox treatment to soften the lines around my lips and the results were noticeable immediately. People used to comment and tell me I wasn't smiling before, and now I don't hear these remarks. It has been a great experience!
