Simple, Effective, and Safe
BOTOX is Botulism Toxin Type A, a purified form of protein, which is directly injected into the line or wrinkle-causing muscle. These injections temporarily block the nerve impulses to the area. Since the muscle cannot contract, the wrinkle in that area gradually diminishes, giving your face a firm, smooth look and feel.
These injections are used in the treatment of:
- Glabellar lines (frown lines between the eyebrows)
- Crow’s feet near the eyes
- Forehead creases
- Thick bands in the neck
- Vertical wrinkles that appear on the upper lip
The procedure itself is virtually painless and safe, with no recovery time. It takes only 10 minute to complete. A simple procedure, and a few injections – and you can see dramatic improvement in your appearance within a couple days, and the results may last from three up to six months. Repeat injections may, therefore, be necessary to yield improved results.
