LASIK Eye Center of Silicon Valley - Dr. Gary Kawesch

When you want to smooth out your wrinkles instead of nipping and tucking them, BOTOX® is a great alternative. It's also a less invasive way to obtain a more youthful appearance. However, patients do squirm at the thought of putting a neurotoxin into their face. The question remains, just how safe is BOTOX® Cosmetic? You can learn more about the safety of BOTOX® by contacting Dr. Gary Kawesch at the Laser Eye Center in Silicon Valley.

When BOTOX® is injected appropriately, and according the labeled instructions, it is one of the safest cosmetic interventions you can have. While there are risks, you can rest assured that overall, the procedure is reliable and trustworthy.

Considering the Doctor Behind your BOTOX® Injection

Seems that just about everybody offers BOTOX® these days - dermatologists, ophthalmologists, urgent care centers, plastic surgeons and others. Finding a doctor to perform your BOTOX® injection is easy, but finding one that is reliable may be more difficult unless you ask these five qualifying questions:

1. Can you show me some of your patients pre- and post-BOTOX® pictures?
2. How many of Botox injections have you performed?
3. Will you be doing the injections, or will a staff member do the procedure?
4. If another staff member, what are his/her qualifications?
5. Where is the procedure to take place?

By asking these critical questions and remembering not to base your physician selection on price over credentials, you will ensure that your BOTOX® procedure is handled appropriately and safely.

Now, more than ever, you have options that can turn back the clock on your face. Dr. Gary Kawesch at the Laser Eye Center of Silicon Valley, with office locations in San Jose, San Francisco and Oakland can help you determine if BOTOX® is right for you. Please schedule an appointment today.
