Botox® In Beverly Hills
As one of the most prestigious cosmetic surgeons in Beverly Hills, Dr. Mashhadian and the staff of Rodeo Surgical Art understand that our patients take center stage in the fundamental growth and success of our practice. Practically every medical spa is doing Botox® injections, so we’d like to share why Rodeo Surgical Art is going to become your personal cosmetic mecca.
On the day of your appointment, we will provide a full exam and skin evaluation. This way, we can discuss the patient’s goals and ideas to gain a perfect understanding of what is desired as well as what is possible. We aim to achieve only the most fantastic results. Our patients are seen and treated primarily by Dr. Mashhadian, who is a fellowship-trained Cosmetic Surgeon, not a nurse or physician’s assistant.
This allows Dr. Mashhadian to be present throughout the entire process of your treatment and provide firsthand follow-up care if necessary. In addition to the standard horizontal and frown lines treated by Botox®, Dr. Mashhadian also specializes in treating:
- Lip Lines (Smokers Lines)
- Wrinkles on the bridge of the nose (Bunny Nose)
- Crease under the nose, giving a slight nose tip lift
- Gummy smile
- Chin wrinkles (Orange Peel Effect)
- Fine lines and wrinkles under and around the eyes
- Brow Lift
- Softening look of the jawline
- Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands)
- Axillary Hyperhidrosis (Under Arm Sweating)
Dynamic wrinkles are caused by the repetitive contractions of the underlying facial muscles every time you smile, laugh or frown. The more emotion you show, the deeper these wrinkles and lines are likely to be. While you may have earned every one of your worry lines, you don’t have to show them anymore. Now, thanks to FDA-approved Botox®, dynamic lines can be softened. The procedure known as cosmetic denervation utilizes Botox® injections to improve the appearance of worry lines, frown lines, laugh lines, crow’s feet, and other deep wrinkles.
How does Botox® Work?
Botox® blocks impulses from the nerve to the tiny facial muscles that are related to expression lines. Botox® relaxes the muscles so they do not contract. After treatment, the overlying skin remains smooth and unwrinkled while the untreated facial muscles contract in a normal fashion. This allows for normal facial expression to go unaffected by treatment.
Are Botox® treatments safe?
Botox® injections are FDA-approved and have been used safely and effectively for over ten years to treat many ophthalmological and neurological disorders. Each year, thousands of patients receive Botox® treatments for a variety of conditions. Botox is also quickly becoming a mainstream treatment for reversing the visible signs of aging.

What is the treatment like?
Cosmetic denervation with Botox® is a simple and safe procedure. Utilizing a tiny micro-needle, a very small amount of Botox® is injected, very precisely, into several locations on the face. Because the needle is so fine and only a small amount of liquid is utilized, the pain associated with the injections is minimal. Most patients compare the sensation to a bug bite or slight pinch. Anesthetic is not required and you can resume normal activities immediately. You can even drive yourself home or back to the office. Some patients experience slight, temporary bruising at the injection site. This can be covered with makeup.
Are there any side effects?
Temporary bruising is the most common side effect. In some cases, the toxin can migrate and cause the temporary weakness of nearby muscles. In rare cases, there can be drooping of an eyelid or asymmetry of facial expression. The risk of any side effect depends on the muscles injected. Your physician will discuss these risks with you in length before your treatment. Because the effects of Botox® are completely reversible, any side effects are temporary, lasting only a few weeks.
What results can I expect?*
If dynamic wrinkles make you look older than you are, cosmetic denervation can smooth these out and give you a more youthful and pleasant appearance. However, this procedure cannot improve wrinkles due to aging and sun-damaged skin alone as they are unrelated to facial muscle contractions. Botox® injections will not improve sagging skin or replace the need for a facelift or brow lift.
What are the limitations of Botox® injections?
Botox® injections are a temporary solution for the treatment of dynamic wrinkles. The effects of the injections last from four to six months. You will need to have injections about two to three times each year. Clinical studies have indicated that the duration of treatment over time leads to increased benefits over time. This means that you should require fewer injections as time goes on. Also, the duration of effect varies from patient to patient and may be less effective for patients greater than 65 years of age.
