Botox®
Relaxed and youthful – the face that fits your body and mind


Benefit:
Dramatically smoothes and reduces your forehead wrinkles and crow’s feet. Also relieves tension headaches, migraines and excessive sweating.

How it works:
Repeated muscular contractions such as frowning and squinting form lines known as dynamic wrinkles. A tiny amount of BOTOX is injected into the muscles that create these wrinkles. This blocks the nerve impulse from reaching that area, causing the muscle to relax and as the muscle relaxes, the dynamic wrinkle is smoothed away. BOTOX is a natural, purified protein that works by blocking nerve impulses to relax overactive muscles. It is derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum and is the only one of its type with over 10 years of successful clinical experience in therapeutic conditions.


   
Best Suited For: Length of Treatment: How it Feels:
There are very few restrictions regarding who can be treated. So simple and quick that it can be done on your lunch hour. Pain is minimal and has been compared to a bug bite.
     
Downtime: Frequency Required: Before & After Photos
Slight temporary bruising may be experienced, which can usually be covered by makeup. Normal activities can otherwise be resumed immediately. The effects are rapid and usually last three to six months at which time another injection is required. Effects may last longer after several treatments. Click here for photos
