BOTOX® Cosmetic and Full Face Botox in Brooklyn, NY are customized at Skin Glow Dermatology for adults who want to soften dynamic expression lines while maintaining balanced, natural-looking facial movement. Yelena Terushkin, PA-C evaluates facial anatomy, muscle strength, movement patterns, previous injectable treatments and aesthetic goals before recommending an individualized plan.
Some patients need treatment in one area, while others may discuss a broader Full Face Botox approach that considers how multiple facial muscles interact. Treatment areas, dosing and whether a use is on-label or off-label are reviewed during consultation.
BOTOX Cosmetic contains onabotulinumtoxinA, a botulinum toxin type A product used to temporarily reduce activity in selected muscles that contribute to dynamic facial lines.
Dynamic wrinkles become visible with repeated facial movement such as frowning, squinting, smiling or raising the eyebrows. Treatment is planned according to anatomy, muscle activity and the specific cosmetic concern.
Horizontal forehead lines can be softened while considering brow position and facial balance.
Vertical lines between the eyebrows are a common BOTOX Cosmetic treatment area.
Dynamic lines around the outer eyes can be treated while preserving natural expression.
Patients may ask about bunny lines, lip flip, chin dimpling, DAO muscles, masseters, jawline or platysmal neck bands. Uses outside FDA-approved cosmetic indications are discussed individually.
Full Face Botox is a broader treatment-planning approach rather than a fixed package. The goal is to evaluate how muscles across the upper face, lower face, jawline and neck interact and determine which areas—if any—should be treated.
Not every patient needs every area. Treatment is customized to facial movement and goals.
Yelena evaluates anatomy, muscle movement, symmetry, previous treatments, medications and goals.
Treatment areas and dose are selected according to muscle strength, anatomy and desired softening.
Small amounts are injected into selected muscles using a fine needle.
Your provider reviews recovery, possible side effects and when to assess the response.
Existing Skin Glow guidance notes that improvement often begins within approximately 3–5 days, with the fuller response commonly assessed around 2 weeks. Individual onset varies.
Results commonly last approximately 3–4 months, although duration varies according to treatment area, dose, muscle activity and individual response.
Skin Glow Dermatology currently lists BOTOX® Cosmetic at approximately $12 per unit. Total treatment cost depends on the number of units recommended for your anatomy, muscle strength, treatment areas and goals.
Cosmetic BOTOX® is generally self-pay and is not typically covered by health insurance.
Men may seek BOTOX for forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet or a more rested appearance. Because muscle strength and facial anatomy vary, dosing should be individualized rather than based on gender alone.

Some adults consider cosmetic neuromodulator treatment before dynamic lines become more noticeable at rest. Preventative treatment should still be based on actual muscle activity, facial anatomy and individual goals rather than age alone.

Results depend on anatomy, treatment areas, dose and goals. Some patients want subtle wrinkle softening, while others choose a broader Full Face Botox approach for facial balancing.

Temporary injection-site reactions can include redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising or discomfort. Headache may also occur. Botulinum toxin products carry important warnings and can cause more serious adverse effects.
Your provider will review medical history, medications, contraindications and product safety information before treatment. Seek urgent medical attention for severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing or swallowing.
Depending on your goals, BOTOX may be incorporated into a broader facial-rejuvenation plan. Your provider may discuss treatments that address volume, skin quality or other concerns that neuromodulators do not directly treat.
Related options include RHA® dermal fillers and lip fillers. Combination treatment is not necessary for every patient.
