Whereas in “conventional” Botulinum toxin, the injections target muscles which give rise to particular wrinkles, the injections for The B*tox Lift are targeted at specific muscles with a downward vector. These include the depressor anguli ori, orbicularis occuli and the platysmus muscle at the jaw line.
The “lifting effect” of Intradermal B*tox is also attributed to injections over lower part of the face close to the jaw-line canceling some of the downward pull of the platysmus muscle and thus giving the cheeks and jowls a “lift”. This is the main action in The B*tox Lift.
Besides the platysmus, other muscles like the constrictors of the eye and the Depressor Anguli Ori (DAO) are also weakened to allow an eyebrow lift and an up-tilt of the angle of the mouth respectively. The latter minimizes the marionette lines.
Non-Surgical Facelift with just B*TOX
A slightly unbalanced smile is a possible but rare side-effect with another method called Intradermal B*tox. The Zygomaticus major or the Levator labii superioris alaque nasi may be affected by B*tox diffusing downward into them. They lie just beneath areas of skin where the injections are commonly administered.
The side-effect can be consciously avoided in expert hands.
The B*tox Lift can be used in synergy with Ultherapy Prime and with Fillers. The DL Lift is a method of injection described by Dr David Loh.
