Best BOTOX® Injections in Paramus, Bergen County, New Jersey
BOTOX® Cosmetic, facial fillers, and cosmetic injectables are some of the greatest breakthroughs in non-surgical cosmetic dermatology. Cosmetic injectables is a broad term used to describe prescription medications that address the visible signs of aging, including facial creases and wrinkles and facial volume loss. For many people of different ages, cosmetic injectables are an effective and popular alternative to plastic surgery.
In men and women, the most prominent area for folds and wrinkles are creases found on the forehead, typically caused by years of frowning and squinting and wrinkles around the eyes due to aging. When skillfully injected, BOTOX® Cosmetic can temporarily reduce deep creases and wrinkles resulting in a more youthful, smoother, and refreshed look.
What Areas of the Face does BOTOX® Cosmetic Treat?
The most common area of injection is between the eyebrows where adults frequently develop a furrow as wells as crow’s feet and forehead lines. These troublesome areas respond very well to BOTOX® Cosmetic injections. Areas of the face that BOTOX® Cosmetic rejuvenates include:
- Forehead (creases, wrinkles and furrows)
- Glabellar lines (frown lines that appears as two lines between the eyebrows)
- Smile lines (around the eyes)
- Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
Additionally, Dr. Baxt injects BOTOX® Cosmetic in select patients for “crinkling” of the lower eyelid, and for areas around the mouth and chin. BOTOX® Cosmetic also works well for patients with neckbands.
What is BOTOX® Cosmetic Made of?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is comprised of tiny amounts of a highly purified botulinum toxin protein refined from the bacterium, Clostridium botulinum, this is a natural product. BOTOX® Cosmetic works beneath the skin’s surface and targets the underlying muscle activity that causes frown lines and crow’s feet and prevent muscle activity and reduce the appearance of frown lines.
Is BOTOX® Cosmetic Safe?
When applied by a board-certified dermatologist, in appropriate amounts, BOTOX® Cosmetic is one of the safest medications and cosmetic facial treatments on the market. BOTOX® Cosmetic has been FDA-approved for cosmetic use in the United States since 2002. BOTOX® was discovered and FDA approved for medical treatment in 1991. So, it has been used in the USA for decades
BOTOX® injections have several medical uses, including as a migraine treatment, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) treatments, and much more. Dr. Baxt currently offers BOTOX® (onabotulinumtoxinA) injections to treat the symptoms of severe underarm sweating (severe primary axillary hyperhidrosis). Learn more.
BOTOX® (onabotulinumtoxinA) is manufactured by Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie Company, and is one of the best-known pharmaceutical products. The safety and efficacy of BOTOX® Cosmetic has been evaluated by the manufacturer, Allergan, in clinical trials and more than 417 peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals.

Are there Alternatives to BOTOX® Cosmetic?
Dr. Rebecca Baxt, Medical Director of BAXT CosMedical® in Paramus, NJ (Bergen County, NJ), carries a variety of products that are FDA-approved to address facial wrinkles and furrows. Dr. Baxt will recommend the appropriate neuromodulator to achieve your cosmetic refreshment goals.
While BOTOX® Cosmetic is widely used by the cosmetic enhancement industry, since the late 2000s, the FDA has approved several other neuromodulator products, including Dysport®, Jeuveau™ and Xeomin®, for use in treating specific cosmetic renewal concerns. While the competitors use the same active ingredient, there are subtly different characteristics and effects that appeal to dermatologists and their patients.
One of newest neurotoxins to be FDA-approved is DAXXIFY®. This long-lasting peptide-powered frown line treatment received FDA approval in September 2022. Dr. Rebecca Baxt was one of the first exclusive providers to offer this innovative injectable as an alternative to Botox® Cosmetic/Dysport®/Xeomin®.

Dr. Baxt offers and injects a full range of neurotoxin products. She explains to her patients that these botulinum-based treatments work in a similar manner to reduce facial muscle contractions, which helps to minimize—and, in some cases erase—lines and wrinkles. All of these products are effective for treating in the upper face.
During your complimentary consultation, Dr. Baxt will discuss the product differences and recommend the appropriate product that will best achieve your cosmetic improvement and anti-aging goals.

Side effects occurred in less than one percent of recipients, and most of these were minor; such as, minor headache or bruising. Beware of low cost “Botox” providers as there is no “generic” form of BOTOX® Cosmetic. The formulations, potency, and approved doses vary among botulinum toxin products. This means that one product cannot take the place of another. Make sure you are getting authentic BOTOX® Cosmetic. We receive our BOTOX® directly from the manufacturer, Allergan.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is an FDA-approved drug and is a medical procedure best performed by a licensed board-certified dermatologist with expertise in the art of cosmetic medicine and NOT a nurse, physician’s assistant (PA), dentist or other type of non-cosmetic doctor.

BOTOX® Cosmetic and the many dermal fillers available have different ingredient formulations and indications for use. Products containing the botulinum toxin A, such as BOTOX® Cosmetic, are injected into specific muscles to temporarily smooth out lines, wrinkles and folds that occur from facial movement, such as frowning, smiling, and squinting.
Dermal facial fillers are injected under the skin and are primarily used to restore lost facial volume, plump and contour lips, improve the contours of the face, soften wrinkles and creases, and improve the appearance of scars.
Dr. Baxt interview for Parade Magazine, March 2023
“If it’s injected properly, it weakens the muscles and you don’t have as many lines,” explains dermatologist Rebecca Baxt, MD, MBA, medical director of Baxt CosMedical® in New Jersey.
If you’re looking to smooth out those crow’s feet or the “11s” between your eyebrows, Botox isn’t your only option, either. While Botox was the first brand of neurotoxin to hit the market, other FDA-approved products include Dysport®, Jeuveau®, and Xeomin®. You can expect to need a new set of injections about every three to four months if you want to maintain the results, Dr. Baxt notes.” (Read full article)
