BOTOX(R) Cosmetic

BOTOX(r) Cosmetic is a simple, non surgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, wrinkles and assortment of other treatments in people from 18 to 65 years of age. it is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

How long does the procedure take?

Following the consultation, the actual procedure takes less than 15 minutes. Minor redness for a few minutes up to an hour or two may be noted, and it is necessary to remain upright for about 4 hrs.

How does BOTOX(r) work?

BOTOX(r) is injected into a targeted facial expression muscle, blocking impulses from the nerve to the muscle, thereby relaxing the muscle so it does not contract. This causes the overlying skin to become smoother, with fewer lines and wrinkles. After treatment, the skin remains smooth and unwrinkled.

How quickly will I see results?

Botox(r) usually stars relaxing the treated area within several days, but the full effect may not be realized for 2 weeks.

How long will BOTOX(r) last?

The effects last between 3-4 months on average but everyone is different.

Combine Botox with fillers to lift the face, and lasers to remove blemishes, scars, and more extensive wrinkling, for a real “wow” effect.
