The idea that facial expression Botox limits emotions seems far fetched. When a person gets Botox they should leave the office looking and feeling beautiful. The most important thing to know is that Botox should not be done where it limits the facial expressions, anyway.

Botox, in my opinion, is like cosmetics. You are supposed to put on cosmetics to cover flaws, not to pancake it all over your face and make you look fake. No one looks good with too much makeup. Botox should have the same idea behind it.

In 2009 Botox was the number one cosmetic procedure and I feel that it makes people feel more beautiful, positive and happy. If you want to be treated with Botox, it should not effect your emotions, not only internally but physically. And it should also be done in a way that is not noticeable to the point where you feel everyone can tell.

Do you think that getting a few tiny wrinkles around your eyes is not a bid deal.  What you do not know is: a few wrinkles may portend a big disaster in your life — aging with hormonal imbalance.

You wake up one day and you really look at yourself in the mirror. It didn’t happen overnight, but it sure feels like it did. You got old! Your wrinkles are prominent, your skin in sagging, you have bags under your eyes from lack of sleep, and you look tired and haggard. What caused this, and how did it happen to you? You are not ready to think of yourself as old, yet.

“Every wrinkle has a reason,” says Sergey Kalitenko, MD, an Anti Aging Holistic Physician, practicing in Great Neck, Nassau county, Long Island, as well as Brooklyn and Manhattan. “There are several reasons why wrinkles happen, and it’s important to know that they cannot all be treated the same way.  You need to know the reason for wrinkles to treat them appropriately.”

At Dr. Kalitenko’s offices in Great Neck, they use biofeedback and other tests to look into the root cause of your aging problems, and find the right ways to identify, diagnose, and treat them.

Appropriate history taking, physical exam and tests will show that your wrinkles came from either:

1. Loss of skin thickness — your skin just isn’t as thick anymore, as you age.
2. Loss of volume — this has nothing to do with the skin actually, but rather with the fat underneath the skin and needs to be treated differently.
3. Excessive muscle pull — when the skin mimics the muscle pull and is working too hard.
4. Loss of normal skin texture — when the elastic fibers are gone and no longer in shape.

Each of these needs to be treated in the appropriate way. This is not a “one treatment fits all” plan.

“The first few wrinkles around your eyes are so small and can barely be noticed,” says Dr. Kalitenko.  “And you do not usually pay too much attention to them. So what? A little bit of makeup and you are ok.  But soon your problems start to pile up and soon disaster starts.”

Treatments are becoming too expensive. Visits to the makeup counter at department stores are costing hundreds of dollars but the results are almost a joke. You could be missing one approach that could prevent disaster.

Functional medicine can save you from that disaster, because it looks for the root cause of your problem and treats it. At our offices we look into the reason for your problem. We examine why your skin is wrinkled, we look into your diet, into vitamins, and we look to treat you to make the whole you feel younger and better.

Dr. Kalitenko has also teamed up with the healing services offered at Margaret’s Paradise, to offer a full, natural beauty experience. The office makes sure that you are taken care of inside and out.

Committing to look and feel younger is not an easy process. We encourage you to learn more by signing up for one of Dr. Kalitenko’s many free e-seminars. We feature in-depth articles about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy, neurotransmitters, beauty, detoxification, and living longer.

“Most importantly, I ask that you come and see me personally for a consultation,” says Doctor Kalitenko. “There is no better way for me to tell you what I think would be the best for you, other than to meet you. I work with each patient, not their numbers, and every patient is different.”

Everyone knows that Botox is expensive, so the hope is that with the release of new Relaxin, it will bring the competition out and the prices down.

Relaxin is still awaiting FDA approval and ist’s hard to predict now if the prices of Botox treatments will go down because it’s hard to know yet if Relaxin is as good. It will take time for the new drug to prove itself to us.

In the mean time I suggest looking for more natural treatments while you’re waiting to hear about the effects of Relaxin. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement may be an option.

Sure, consumers need to cut down on spending. Every news station has special segments on where we can cut spending, where we can crunch numbers again, and how to save. But right now, consumers are still spending on beauty treatments like Botox, Restylane, and Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy.

Are we really so vain as a society that we would take the food from our family’s table just to look good. The answer is yes, and with good reason.

Right now, with layoffs and cuts in business spending, companies are looking to get the most out of the employees they have. They want young people, who can get paid less and have the energy to do more. It’s terrible to think your 30 years of experience as a bookkeeper may hang in the balance of the wrinkles on your forehead, but there’s an eager college graduate at the door willing to work longer hours for half the pay.

This is the time when people realize they have to break out the big guns and compete for their jobs. The way you look may make or break your job.

It is not easy to treat migraines and every new medication is a big help. Until 1991 we did not really have any powerful drug for migraine headaches. The advent of Imitrex has changed that and we got a powerful weapon against migraine.

But since then there has been nothing new in sight. Until recently.

Botox maker Allergan announced on 9/11/2008, that the results of Botox for migraine treatment studies are promising.  It turned out that the drug is mostly reducing the number of days that the patient has headaches.  The migraine episodes’ frequency decline was not that impressive.  The number of patients enrolled was 1,384 and they were treated with multiple injections around the forehead and neck.  This method differs from the previously used method to inject where it hurts. And it apparently worked.

How does Botox work for migraines? There is no confirmed explanation, but I can only guess that Botox relaxes head and neck muscles, therefore relieving the pain.

The most promising thing is that, as per Allergan, Botox treatment Ha helped people who are suffering for severe migraines, not light headache episodes. If it is true in everyday practice, then we may get a very powerful weapon against migraines very soon.

Some of them are very well known, some of them are either forgotten or underused

Here are the list:

1. Retinoids — old and proven method to improve skin texture and get rid of tiny wrinkles.

2. Botox — amazing drug. Safe, effective and well tolerated.

3. Fillers — effective, safe and pretty long lasting. Restylane is very good.

4. Thread lift — fast, safe, looks natural.

5. Hormone replacement therapy if needed — used for years. Improves not only skin tone, but also general health condition.

6. Stress reduction! Relax!

7. Sleeping enough!

8. Liberal water intake! Remember: water is a forgotten nutrient!

Isn’t it simple and easy?

Botox is expensive. We all know that. Shall we expect prices to go down? Maybe.Because a new drug Relaxin with similar effects is waiting for FDA approval. Will the advent of competitor drug bring prices down? Hard to predict right now, because in my opinion Relaxin may compete with Botox only if it is as good as Botox. But we do not know how good is Relaxin is, and even if it is as good, it has to prove it. It takes time. So I do not expect Botox prices going down soon. And may be we should look for natural ways to improve skin condition like bioidentical hormone replacement? It may be cheaper.
