Receding Lip
A Receding lip is seen when a person smiles and too much of the gum line is visible – detracting from a symmetrical appearance. A combination of botox and filler is used to correct this and enhance your natural smile.

EYES
Wrinkles
Also called ‘’crows feet’’ – these wrinkles appear more prominent around our eyes as we age. Botox can be used to soften these wrinkles and to provide a more youthful appearance. During your consultation Dr. Kruger might also suggest laser therapy to further enhance and maintain your skin's texture.

Eyebrow Lift
Another very popular treatment is the eyebrow lift – usually in conjunction with botox treatments to the forehead and frown lines. Botox is carefully injected along the outer aspect of the eyebrows causing the eyebrows to lift. An eyebrow lift can also be used to shape the eyebrows for a more aesthetic and appealing look.

Dark Circles
Dark circles under the eyes can make someone look very tired. They are caused by lack of volume underneath the skin and can be corrected with dermal filler or PRP (coming soon!). To avoid complications and decrease bruising Dr. Kruger uses a cannula injection technique which is a ‘blunt needle’.

Anti-wrinkle Treatment
As we age, the muscles in our face that we use to animate and express ourselves create line patterns over time, which eventually develop into wrinkles. Excessive forehead lines can make a person appear more worried or angry, but luckily there is a simple solution to treat these lines – Botox!

Frown Lines
When the wrinkles between our eyebrows, our ‘frown lines’ appear excessively – it may make a person look intimidating or angry even if they aren’t. These lines can be treated with Botox – to relax the muscles and give our body a chance to heal the skin, thereby eliminating wrinkles in this area.

Migraines
Chronic migraines are a debilitating condition which can cause severe disruption to a person’s daily activities, and greatly impact quality of life if left untreated. According to the Canadian Headache Society guidelines (https://headachesociety.ca/guidelines/), certain types of medication may be helpful in preventing migraines. Botox is indicated as a second line preventative treatment for chronic migraines, and is covered by most private insurance companies if a patient qualifies for treatment.
If you suffer with chronic migraines (>15 headache days per month), have private medical insurance, and have tried 1st line preventative therapies unsuccessfully, book an appointment with Dr Kruger today as you may be eligible for therapeutic botox treatment.
Please note that therapeutic migraine treatment is not a cosmetic treatment and is not a 1st line preventative treatment.
JAWLINE AND CHEEKS
Cheek Augmentation
As we age we lose volume and structure in our faces. This manifests as skin that either sags or droops due to low volume, or skin that appears puffy with too much skin due to excess skin. Using hyaluronic acid, we can restore lost volume and add structure to the face, providing a more youthful appearance. In younger patients we can also enhance the cheekbones for a more defined and structured appearance.

Jawline Contouring & Facial Slimming
Hyaluronic acid & botox injections are used to slim and define the jawline to provide a more feminine (or masculine) appearance, depending on the person's goals. Your physician will assess your face and discuss a treatment plan suited to your goals. Bruxism (excessive teeth clenching) can lead to headaches, TMJ disorders, and a widened jaw appearance. We can use botox to soften to masseter muscles which are responsible for excessive clenching which also provides a more feminine appearance. Book your appointment today to discuss your treatment plan with one of our doctors!
