The Benefits of Botulinum Toxin in Medicine

When injected in very small amounts, botulinum toxin temporarily relaxes the underlying facial muscles. This offers cosmetic and therapeutic benefits.

Several injectable products contain botulinum toxin. Dysport® and Xeomin® are two of the newest products; however, we currently don't offer these options in our Central Florida offices in Eustis, Clermont, and Leesburg. Instead, we offer the BOTOX family of injectable products that contain botulinum toxin. These products have a longer safety record and are approved by the FDA for several uses.

Our BOTOX Treatment Options

Many patients don't realize that Allergan produces two botulinum toxin injectable products: BOTOX and BOTOX Cosmetic. We offer both of these products in our offices in Eustis, Clermont, and Leesburg to treat medical and cosmetic issues that affect the areas around the eyes.

Medical BOTOX

BOTOX is a medical treatment for a wide variety of conditions, including hyperhidrosis, cervical dystonia, and overactive bladder. While we don't treat these conditions at our Eustis, Clermont, and Leesburg, FL, offices, we do use BOTOX to treat conditions such as:

Blepharospasm

Constant eyelid spasms can be irritating and make you feel self-conscious. During a short, in-office procedure, we can inject BOTOX through the skin and into the overactive muscles causing the spasms. This treatment is approved by the FDA for use in patients aged 12 and older, and the results last for about three months.

Chronic Migraines

BOTOX is FDA approved to treat chronic migraines. This means that patients have 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four or more hours. Our eye doctors can inject BOTOX into specific locations around the head and neck to reduce the occurrence and severity of chronic migraines. The results typically last for about two and a half months.

BOTOX Cosmetic

Most patients are familiar with the benefits offered by BOTOX Cosmetic, with results typically lasting for three to four months. In our Central Florida offices, we use BOTOX Cosmetic to treat:

All of these uses of BOTOX Cosmetic are safe and approved for use by the FDA.

Why Patients Choose Us

Dr Sheridan is the only doctor I've ever had that truly listens to me. I had a lot of severe issues all at once and Dr Sheridan helped me profusely, above and beyond what any doctor has ever done for me. I can't recommend them ENOUGH! The staff is amazing, the building is clean and I will never forget what Dr Sheridan has done for me.

Several years ago I met Dr. Sheridan AFTER another eye surgeon caused eye damage. He compassionately and expertly helped me through a terrible time and I believe helped save my sight. I have been a patient ever since. It is so reassuring to walk into a physician's office and know that he instantly recognizes you and clearly remembers your health issues.

BOTOX Side Effects

The side effects of BOTOX and BOTOX Cosmetic are typically minimal. Some patients report skin tenderness, itchiness, bruising, redness, and swelling at the injection site. These possible side effects are typically most noticeable in the hours or first couple days after treatment and subside quickly. We can discuss any concerns you have during your appointment at our Eustis, Clermont, or Leesburg, FL, offices.
