BOTOX
If you are looking for a way to refresh your face and erase the evidence of stress and aging, BOTOX just might be the solution for you. BOTOX is a natural, purified protein and is considered the most non-invasive cosmetic procedure available. With BOTOX Cosmetic, you get very real results.
Different from facial fillers, BOTOX relaxes those tense muscles that cause wrinkles and defined expression lines. When performed by a board-certified dermatologist, BOTOX safely and effectively diminishes wrinkles and lines, without leaving you with that unnatural, “frozen-faced” look.
Patients typically seek BOTOX to eliminate the appearance of forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, neck bands, lines around the corners of the mouth, and under eye wrinkles.
How Does BOTOX Work?
Botulinum Toxin A, the scientific name for BOTOX, provides a buffer to neurotransmitters within the injected muscles, lessening the signal to contract. This releases wrinkles and folds around the injection sites. The full effects of BOTOX can take 2-14 days to fully develop and can last up to 6 months.
Since there is no recovery time or down time, patients may resume all normal activities immediately after treatment. The common side effects of BOTOX, as with all injectable products, may include swelling, bruising, bleeding, and itching at the injection site. Most side effects resolve themselves naturally within 24 hours.
