BOTOX® COSMETIC

WHAT IS BOTOX®?

Botox® Cosmetic is considered a safe, effective way of treating aging skin. Common areas for Botox injections include horizontal forehead furrows, vertical lines between the eyebrows, and “crow’s feet” around the eyes. Botox® is a proven effective non-surgical form of facial rejuvenation.

Is botox right for you?

REASONS FOR CONSIDERING BOTOX®

Excessive facial wrinkles.
Large wrinkles or furrows on your forehead.
Small wrinkles or “crow’s feet” around your eyes.
A vertical “frown line” between your eyebrows.

WHAT EXACTLY DOES BOTOX DO?

GENERAL PROCEDURE

The procedure works by altering the facial muscles beneath the skin related to wrinkles. A licensed practitioner will place cream with a local anesthetic on your skin before treatment, and they will immediately apply ice upon completion of the Botox® treatment. Typically a small amount (1-2 cc’s) of Botox® is injected into the area of the wrinkle. Botox® works by blocking the impulses from the nerve to the facial muscles, thereby relaxing them. When the underlying facial muscles relax, the skin begins to smooth out. The effects of a Botox® treatment will last approximately three to six months, after which the patient may choose to repeat the procedure.

RECOVERY PROCESS

Patients generally return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure; however, following the post-procedure guidelines will dramatically reduce the length and intensity of the recovery period. Patients should avoid engaging in heavy physical exercise, applying cosmetics, or lying flat for at least 4 hours after the injections. It is also advisable to avoid rubbing or massaging the injected area for at least 24 hours. Our certified practitioners will guide you through every step of your Botox® treatment.
