What is Microdroplet botulinum toxin treatment?

Published on August 4, 2012

Microdroplet™ botulinum toxin treatment, or more simply called Microdroplet™ BOTOX®, is a specialized method of cosmetic BOTOX® treatment protected under US Patent 7,846,457 B2. This treatment was designed and researched to address the problem of the “forehead freeze” sometimes seen in standard BOTOX® treatments, improving this minimally invasive cosmetic procedure with more reliable, precise, and natural results. In short, Microdroplet™ BOTOX® improves upon earlier treatments by avoiding the “flat” or “frozen” or “nonexpressive” look that is sometimes associated with BOTOX®. BOTOX® is an extremely popular cosmetic service for good reason–it’s safe, it’s effective, and its benefits are clinically proven. Now with Microdroplet™ BOTOX®, you can achieve a youthful appearance that elevates the eyebrows and improves forehead lines, but still retain your full range of natural facial expression.

How does Microdroplet™ BOTOX® work?

Microdroplet™ BOTOX® utilizes the same foundational principles that make BOTOX® effective. Botulinum toxin or BOTOX® is a natural muscle relaxant that, with proper placement, can restore balance to the face by correcting overactive muscles often responsible for wrinkles, creases, and forehead lines. What is unique about the breakthrough Microdroplet™ BOTOX® method is the highly controlled placement of tiny microdroplets of botulinum toxin to treat the muscles responsible for pulling the eyebrows down, without “treating” other parts of the face that don’t need it. Microdroplet™ BOTOX® is an individualized treatment targets the precise muscles responsible for your concerns, meaning that you achieve positive results but still maintain normal forehead movements and expressions.

How was Microdroplet™ BOTOX® developed?

The placement of Microdroplet™ BOTOX® is positioned according to the depth, treatment patterns, volumes, and other technical factors developed by patent holder Dr. Steinsapir who researched and invented the method, which is regarded today as revolutionary. The method is so unusual that is was granted a very rare United States patent. Dr. Steinsapir trained alongside the inventor of BOTOX® and has been providing BOTOX® since 1988, along with other specialized facial cosmetic procedures. Upon observation, Dr. Steinsapir noticed that many individuals received great benefits from treatment yet still experienced some side effects. This is why he developed Microdroplet™ BOTOX®, to continue helping individuals achieve the results they desire and maximize natural improvements.
