BOTOX® Cosmetic

BOTOX^® Cosmetic

Imagine a younger, vibrant you, confident and self-assured about your appearance. With a simple procedure that’s been tested, approved and used by millions, you can achieve that younger look that has you ready to take on the world.

BOTOX^® Cosmetic is a proven means to restore your youthful appearance without surgery. One of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the US, records estimate over 11 million satisfied patients to date. Approved in 2002 by the FDA, BOTOX^® has been tested and proven to work for millions.

How does Botox Cosmetic work?

BOTOX^® Cosmetic diminishes or eliminates the appearance of dynamic lines by relaxing the underlying muscle causing the wrinkle. When injected directly into the muscle, the Botox cosmetic prevents the muscle contraction by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle. Because the muscle cannot contract, the wrinkle cannot form and it gradually diminishes.

Quick. Easy. Effective.

•  A very small needle is used to minimize discomfort.
• The injection feels like a small prick with a slight stinging afterward.
• The entire procedure only takes about 10 minutes.
• BOTOX^® is non-surgical. No recovery time is needed, and patients can return to work or other activities immediately.

Alternative Beauty Applications

Within a few days of treatment, the muscles begin to relax and may take up to two weeks to reach the full desired effect. BOTOX^® Cosmetic gradually wears off, allowing the dynamic wrinkle to return. Typical results last up to 4 months. Repeat treatments may lead to improved results as the muscle causing the wrinkles becomes less responsive over time.

We recommend follow up treatments so you can maintain the younger look and feel you desire everyday.

While BOTOX^® Cosmetic is mainly used to treat dynamic wrinkles in the upper third of the face, it can be used to treat other areas of the face and neck. Did you know that BOTOX^® can help you sweat less? Excessive sweating can feel physically and socially awkward. BOTOX^® has the incredible ability to reduce sweating in the underarms, palms of the hands and soles of feet so you no longer have to feel self-conscious about your body’s natural processes.
