Botox® Cosmetic sometimes called "a facelift in a bottle" is a purified protein. When small doses are injected directly into the muscles, impulses, from the nerves to the injected muscle causing the wrinkles are blocked - allowing them to relax. This relaxing of the muscle allows the skin to smooth out persistent lines that which developed over time.
Botox® Cosmetic treatments usually last about 10-15 minutes and keep the muscles that cause lines relaxed for up to 4 months. In some cases, with repeated treatments. Results are dramatic and apparent within days and unlike surgery it is fast, simple and minimally invasive.

Common Questions About Botox® Cosmetic Treatment
Where is Botox® Cosmetic Used?

These wrinkles are called "dynamic" and tend to be much less noticeable when your face is completely relaxed. It also works well for bands in the neck.Am I a good candidate?
The best candidates for the procedure are those between ages of 25 and 65. In many cases, wrinkles in people over 65 are "static" and do not change when relaxing the face. Other procedures would work better for these patients. Each person is different however, and should undergo a consultation determine the most effective treatment plan.How is Botox® Cosmetic Administered?
A very small amount of Botox® Cosmetic is injected into each or the target areas using a very small needle.

No sedation or local anesthetic is necessary and you can resume normal activities immediately afterwards.Are the injections painful

The pressure sensation associated with the injection goes away very quickly and patients can return to normal activities immediately after the procedure.When will I notice the difference and how long will it last?
The treatment takes three to eight days to take full effect which sometimes can be hastened by contracting the facial muscles. The results usually last from 3 to 5 months. Often, repeated treatments can lead to longer results. The effects of Botox® Cosmetic are confined to the treatment sites.What happens as treatment begins to wear off?
As the Botox® Cosmetic wears off the wrinkles will begin to reappear but frequently they are not as deep or noticeable. To maintain the smooth, youthful appearance year round, it requires three to four injections.
