As we grow older, years of sun exposure (extrinsic aging), added to aging up of tissues (intrinsic aging), will wear down the skin. This leads to the formation of dynamic wrinkles secondary to muscular contractions during facial movements such as smiling and frowning. Weakening the muscles responsible for these facial expressions can dramatically improve these wrinkles.
With Botox®, these muscles can be weakened without impacting facial expressions. Botox® is a toxin produced by bacteria called Clostridium Botulinum.
Botox® is very safe in the doses used for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes. It has been used for decades in the United States to treat spasmodic dysphonia, eye twitches, excessive palm or armpit sweating, and headaches.
In the mid 1990’s, Botox® injections were used to treat facial wrinkles. Botox is a very simple, non surgical 10 minute procedure that mainly targets wrinkles over face and neck.
A few experience mild bruising which improves within a few days. You will begin to see improvement in your wrinkles within a few days, and these results usually last for 3-4 months.
