Botox
Botox is a purified and diluted form of Botulinum toxin protein, refined from the bacterium. Botox blocks signals from the nerves and causes the muscles to relax, that would normally contract. It is a non-surgical treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles. Our clinic will be working with Allergan, to ensure that our clients are provided with the highest quality of product.
Prior to cosmetic use, Botox was used by Neurologists and Ophthalmologists to aid in facial tics and help relax muscles around the eye. Botox is one of the top cosmetic treatments being used worldwide. It was approved by the FDA in 2002 and there has been extensive research done to support it. Botox is minimally invasive, and provides amazing results.
What Botox treatments are available?
Frown Lines: Frown lines also known as 11’s are formed from repetitive muscle movement. Botox injected into the muscles between the eyes can smooth the creases.
Forehead Lines: Botox in your forehead muscles can help lift and smooth creases. Botox in this area can also be used for preventative measure, which reduces the formation of new wrinkles (amount of units varies on each individual)
Crow’s Feet: These are the lines that form around your eyes from smiling and squinting. There are three regions on each side of the eye where injections can be given. Injecting Botox into these muscles, will allow the muscle to relax, showing reduced lines.
