As a quick and efficient procedure that leaves no scars, can be performed without anesthesia, and requires very little downtime, it is easy to see why so many patients trust BOTOX to smooth out and elevate their facial features!

What is BOTOX®?

BOTOX® is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that has been available since 2002 for the treatment of wrinkles. It has an outstanding safety record when administered by a qualified and experienced aesthetician and requires minimal time to administer and recover.

BOTOX works by relaxing the overactive muscles that cause wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes. Weakening these muscles allows the overlying skin to unfurl and resume its flat, unwrinkled appearance. In some patients with long-standing deep wrinkles or severe sun damage, the wrinkles will not disappear completely but soften in appearance.

A successful BOTOX treatment should not result in an abnormal appearance. Patients should be able to frown, smile, and look surprised without the accompanying wrinkles and creases. In the hands of an experienced aesthetician, these effects are subtle and do not dramatically change the face. However, BOTOX may not be appropriate for treating all facial wrinkles. Please schedule a consultation to learn more about whether BOTOX is a suitable treatment for your areas of concern.
