Thread-Tox™ revolutionizes the look of Cosmetic Medicine
BOUNTIFUL, Utah – Now you can “Just Say No To Botox!” since the fear of over-tightened frozen facial skin with some Botox treatments is no longer a person’s fate.
A local doctor is revolutionizing facial treatments with Thread-Tox ™ for the first time in Utah. Wade Laser Clinic is the first to offer Thread-Tox™, a new cosmetic procedure, to its patients and to the public.
“Thread-Tox ™ is the final fix for aging skin and wrinkles,” said Dr. Ralph D. Wade, D.O. “As a physician, I am excited to be the first to bring the new permanent Botox alternative, Thread-Tox™ to the Wasatch Front."
Unlike Botox there are no toxins that injected into the skin. It also works for those individuals who may have developed intolerance for Botox, he said.
In the Thread-Tox ™ procedure, the practitioner uses a thin surgical thread to sever the specific nerves that cause frowning, which results in less movement and fewer wrinkles. Thread-Tox™ does not tighten the skin, instead, it knocks out the nerves underneath. Along with softening lines, the procedure is so nerve-specific that other facial muscles move normally. This means that the forehead is not rendered completely stiff, preventing that "frozen" overly Botoxed look.
The procedure has an added bonus of lifting the inner eyebrow. As the "frowning" nerves between the eyes are severed the inner eyebrow raises and can give the appearance of a more open, younger face, Dr. Wade said.
While Botox injections typically last 3 to 4 month on average, Thread-Tox™ is permanent 70 percent of the time and does not require a second office visit. It is a quick ten-minute outpatient procedure and only cost $500, the same cost of two Botox procedures, he added.
The procedure was developed by prominent cosmetic surgeon Guillermo Blugerman and is also known as Glabellar Furrow Relaxation (GFX). To learn more visit the website at http://wadelaserclinic.com or call (801)-295-1020.
