Why would anyone consider getting BOTOX® injections? Shouldn’t we embrace growing older and view wrinkles and other signs of aging as evidence of wisdom?

As unfortunate as it may sound, our society thrives on judging people by their physical appearance, especially during first impressions. Aging gracefully means accepting your physical self, but it can also mean enhancing your features when they seem to be working against you.

Factors like sun damage, aging, and genetics can all conspire to change the appearance of your face, whether you like it or not. Forehead wrinkles, brow furrows, and frown lines can gradually creep in, leading others to believe you are tired, irritated, or grumpy, despite your actual mood. Whether you are at work or in a social situation, the last thing you want to do is feel intimidated or discouraged by your own appearance.

BOTOX is not just a treatment for wrinkles; it is a way to escape the feeling that your personality does not match your appearance. People who choose BOTOX are not unhappy with who they are, they just may not want to be prejudged by facial characteristics that do not accurately reflect how they feel on the inside.

BOTOX patients reap many benefits, including improved youthful appearance and increased self-confidence. BOTOX patients are from all walks of life, namely men and women who want to feel good about how they look.

If you are a working mom tired of being judged by others who may think you are unhappy or grumpy, you may want to consider doing something for yourself; BOTOX sessions can promote a relaxed, energetic appearance. If you are competing for jobs with professionals who are half your age, BOTOX can smooth your facial appearance and provide that extra boost of self-confidence that can carry you far. If you are a divorced man or woman in your 40s or 50s, BOTOX may give you the confidence you’ve been looking for each time you look in the mirror and see a more youthful version of yourself. Whatever your stage in life, BOTOX can offer enhancement and help you look and feel as vibrant as you are.

If you are unhappy with those lines between your eyebrows staring back at you each time you look in the mirror you may want to consider getting rid of them.   Dr. Robert Aycock is an excellent choice for your BOTOX treatment.

Why Consider Breast Enlargement?

Breast enlargement, also known as breast augmentation, is an extremely popular cosmetic surgery procedure that helps women achieve their ideal breast appearance and improve self-image. Women who have lost volume due to aging or pregnancy, or who have had a mastectomy can also benefit from augmentation. If you are self-conscious about small breast size or your breasts are asymmetrical, you may benefit from an enlargement procedure. Silicone implants let you chose the size, shape and texture to get the results you’ve always imagined.

Benefits of Augmentation

A physical change can be a great catalyst for emotional change, as well. Women who choose to enhance their figures with silicone breast implants enjoy a very positive impact on their lives. Patients report having increased confidence in social, professional and romantic interactions, and many women draw on this newfound confidence to make bold steps in different aspects of their lives.

How It’s Done

Dr. Robert Aycock performs breast augmentation surgery after a thorough consultation during which all of the benefits, risks and healing information are presented. Incisions are most often placed under the breast.  The new generation, FDA-approved silicone gel implants (saline is available also) are inserted underneath the pectoral muscle and sutures are used to close up the incisions.

Recovery Period

Breast enlargement patients can expect some downtime, which varies by the individual’s healing progress and lifestyle.  Most patients will take one week off work and will not typically resume aerobic activity for six weeks.  Pain medication and antibiotics help control discomfort and encourage successful healing. Swelling may last up to several months and some patients may experience some bruising.

Dr. Aycock will give you detailed instructions for the care of your incision sites and explain your timeline for resuming normal activities. If you have any questions about healing, our team is readily available to make sure you get through the recovery process smoothly.
