Biography

Binder holds an M.D. degree from University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.[4][5] Binder was elected as a member of the Board of Directors of the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, for which he also serves as a National Board Examiner. He is a member of the National Review Committee for the American Academy of Neurology Therapeutics and Technologies Subcommittee on the Assessment of Botulinum Toxin Therapy and also an adjunct reviewer for the Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery Journal. Binder is board certified by both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery. Binder published around 70 articles in national medical and surgical journals. He edited three textbooks in Facial Plastic Surgery and Head and Neck Surgery and Otolaryngology. He speaks and lecturers on various aspects of facial plastic surgery, including Rhinoplasty and multi-level concept of facelift surgery.[6][7][8] Binder filed 15 U.S. and European patents in the area of Custom Plastic Surgery Implants, Method for Reduction of Migraine Headache Pain, Flexible support wrap, and Anesthesia conduit.[9] In 1992, Binder discovered the use of Botox to alleviate sufferers of chronic migraine headaches.[10][11] Binder reported in 2000 that patients who had cosmetic injections around the face reported relief from chronic headache.[12] This was initially thought to be an indirect effect of reduced muscle tension, but it is now known that the toxin inhibits release of peripheral nociceptive neurotransmitters, suppressing the central pain processing systems responsible for migraine headache.[13][14] In 2010, the FDA approved intramuscular botulinum toxin injections for prophylactic treatment of chronic migraine headache.[15]
