BOTOX® Cosmetic
At Thrive, we use Botox® Cosmetic to help in reducing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, frown lines, and creases on the neck and forehead.
This particular medication works by blocking the nerve impulses that come from the brain to help relax the face and muscles and soften the appearance of the skin. Patients from surrounding communities including Milwaukie and Clackamas find that Botox® Cosmetic can improve pronounced lines and wrinkles with Botox for several months.
BOTOX® Cosmetic can also be used to treat migraine headaches, and TMJ disorder as well as jaw clenching. This neuromodulator has also become a viable treatment for hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating in areas such as the underarms, hands, and feet.
Dr. Maddox has been administering Botox® Cosmetic since 2004 and is dedicated to providing natural looking, beautiful results!
“Very friendly professional service. They took the time to discuss what my objective was & create a treatment just for me. Definitely will go back!” – Michele 8/28/2012
Restylane®
As our bodies begin to age, they naturally reduce their production of hyaluronic acid versus our younger years. This decrease can result in volume loss and shrinkage of the skin which can cause fine lines and wrinkles. One of the most highly desired wrinkle fillers called Restylane® is readily available for patients in our practice. This gel helps restore hyaluronic acid to the skin to add fullness and volume while correcting moderate to severe fine lines and wrinkles. This injectable is best used around the nasolabial folds around the lips and nose.
Juvéderm®
Juvederm is similar to Restylane® in that it is a hyaluronic acid gel filler for lines around the nose and mouth. Dr. Maddox typically uses Juvederm® for lip enhancement and augmentation, marionette lines, parentheses lines, and other moderate to severe folds and wrinkles on the face.
Lip Enhancement
When lips lose their fullness over the course of time, they can be restored with a myriad of fillers and injectables available through Thrive. Dr. Maddox can use a premier treatment such as Juvederm®, Restylane®, or Botox® to improve fine lines, wrinkles, and fullness of the lips for better augmentation.

“A real doctor does the injections here, best I have ever had anywhere. In one week my face looked wrinkle free and rested (for only a little over $200!) Staff is very friendly and helpful and have had procedures done themselves, so eager to share info and explain. Prices are comparable or less than I have seen elsewhere. I’ve found my new spa to pamper myself, will start laser hair removal soon”. – Julie 11/2/2012
