Botox
What is Botox?
Botox® cosmetic is a simple, nonsurgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows 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). One 10-minute treatment—a few tiny injections—and within days there's a noticeable improvement in moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, which can last up to 4 months. Results may vary.
Botox® cosmetic is a purified protein produced by the clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the activity of the muscles that cause those frown lines between the brows to form over time. the anatomy of the wrinkle the lines that appear between your brows (glabellar lines) actually result from muscle movement and the passage of time. You may have heard the expression "wearing your emotions on your sleeve," but in reality you wear them on your face. If you're angry or annoyed, for example, you knit your brows together. Underneath your skin, your facial muscles contract, cause a pleating of the overlying skin, and then, as anyone can see, you're frowning. After years of crinkling and wrinkling, those glabellar lines start to linger longer and can become more pronounced.
How does it work?
When you frown, smile, squint, or use any other common facial expression, your muscles contract under your skin. when you do it over and over, the result can be wrinkles. when you have botox injected directly into these tiny muscles, it blocks nerve impulses to the injection area and prevents further muscle contractions. botox relaxes the muscle and smoothes the skin over that muscle group. In some cases, with repeated treatments, the wrinkles can actually disappear. The effects of botox are confined to the treatment sites. it does not travel throughout your body.
What does the procedure entail?
The treatment takes about 20 - 30 minutes using several tiny injections and you will begin to see results in 3 - 10 days.
What are the results?
Botox smoothes out horizontal forehead lines, frown lines, frown lines between your eyebrows, crow’s feet around your eyes, we can even give your upper lip a little lift.
