Botox is an injectable treatment that temporarily reduces the appearance of crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines. It’s also the world’s leading medical aesthetics treatment for good
reason.
This injectable medication has an excellent track record of safety and efficacy. It offers the chance to smooth the visible signs of aging without plastic surgery's risks and recovery time.
Botox offers the chance to turn back time in the hands of a skilled medical practitioner, if only temporarily. Many men and women are so pleased with their results that they choose to make Botox part of their ongoing anti-aging efforts.
Botox is also used in medical applications and is a treatment option for migraines, temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ), and bruxism (teeth grinding). Speak with your practitioner to learn more.
Botox is made from a carefully controlled volume of Clostridium botulinum, a substance found naturally in soil, lakes, and forests. This substance is a neurotoxin, and when injected into targeted muscles, it prevents those tissues from going through their full range of motion.
You’ll still be able to make facial expressions, but the treated muscles will be more relaxed and avoid pulling your skin into lines, wrinkles, and folds. You’ll achieve smoother skin and a more relaxed facial appearance. Friends and family will notice that you appear rested and youthful, but you won’t have a tight or overly “done” look.
It only takes a few moments to receive Botox injections, and you can be in and out of the office during your lunch hour. Results usually last 3-6 months.
At that point, you’ll begin to notice your lines and wrinkles slowly returning. You can decide if you’d like to extend your results with another round of treatments.
