Chelsea Eye is one of New York City's foremost cosmetic skin centers for Botox treatment.

Botulinum Toxin (BOTOX ®) was developed for medical use and then approved by the FDA for the treatment of uncontrollable eyelid spasms in 1992. Since this time, BOTOX ® has been used successfully to treat excess sweating, migraine headaches and muscle spasms and constrictions. It was found to have excellent applications in cosmetic facial rejuvenation and we have been using BOTOX® Cosmetic for these purposes for many years.


Throughout history, people have looked for ways to achieve a younger, more vibrant look by improving their facial appearance. A procedure utilizing BOTOX® Cosmetic (Botulinum Toxin) is used for the treatment of facial lines and wrinkles. BOTOX® has been safely used for certain medical conditions for more than a decade. This procedure, sometimes referred to as cosmetic denervation, has been considered a safe and effective way of treating aging skin. It is used to eliminate or reduce worry and frown lines, "crows feet", laugh lines, and other wrinkles sometimes called dynamic wrinkles. It can also be used to "lift"          such as the eyebrows and corners of the mouth and to relax muscles of the face for a more youthful appearance. 


A sedative or local anesthetic is not used because the pain associated with the procedure is minimal. A small amount of discomfort is felt when the needle is inserted and the liquid injected. This sensation lasts approximately 5 seconds. BOTOX® Cosmetic is injected into various locations on the face. The needle is extremely small and only a tiny amount of liquid is injected at one time. We use ice packs on the eye and face to provide anesthesia and decrease the chance of bruising.
