Botox Options

Botox can temporarily relax targeted facial muscles to soften expression lines while preserving natural movement. At Laurence Palmer, DDS, Botox is available for $11 per unit.

Common cosmetic treatment areas include:

• Crow’s feet
• Forehead lines
• Frown lines between the eyebrows, also called glabellar lines
• Smoker lines or vertical lines around the mouth

Botox may also be used therapeutically for concerns such as TMJ-related discomfort and migraine relief. Some patients may benefit from a conservative Botox lip lift to create subtle support around the upper lip.

Most Botox appointments take approximately 20–30 minutes. Injection points are selected carefully to support facial symmetry and balanced movement.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are used to restore volume, soften facial folds, and enhance facial contours. Treatment is available for $500 per area.

Common dermal filler treatment areas include:

• Lips
• Nasolabial folds
• Marionette lines

Filler can add support to the lips, soften lines extending from the nose toward the mouth, and improve the appearance of downward-turning corners. Because facial proportions and dental structure are closely connected, Dr. Palmer considers how filler placement relates to your smile and bite before recommending treatment.

Every filler appointment begins with a consultation to discuss your goals, facial anatomy, health history, and preferred timing.

What to Expect

Your appointment begins with a focused consultation with Dr. Laurence Palmer. He will review your medical history, facial anatomy, dental considerations, and treatment goals before recommending an appropriate approach.

Depending on your treatment, the visit may include:

• Photographs of the treatment area
• Mapping of planned injection points
• A review of potential benefits, risks, and expected results
• Botox, dermal filler, or a combination of treatments when appropriate
• Clear aftercare instructions
• Follow-up recommendations

Most appointments take less than an hour.

After treatment, mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur. Keeping the area clean and avoiding vigorous exercise for about 24 hours can help support recovery.

Botox results generally develop gradually, while dermal fillers provide more immediate volume and continue to settle afterward. Follow-up visits allow Dr. Palmer to evaluate healing, symmetry, and overall results.
