BOTOX
ANTI WRINKLE INJECTIONS
WHAT IS BOTOX?
Botox is a brand name for a purified protein called botulinum toxin type A. Produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, it is safely used in tiny, controlled doses to block nerve signals. This temporarily relaxes targeted muscles or stops certain nerve functions
HOW DOES BOTOX WORK?
When injected into a specific area, it acts as a neuromodulator that temporarily blocks chemical signals from nerves. This stops targeted muscles from contracting, which smooths out overlying wrinkles.
IS BOTOX SAFE?
BOTOX is FDA approved for the treatment of facial lines and wrinkles, and has been proven to be extremely safe and effective.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR BOTOX TO WORK?
The results of BOTOX typically begin to appear within a few days after the injection. However, the full results may not be visible for about 1 – 2 weeks, so it is important to wait an adequate amount of time before seeking a top up treatment.
HOW LONG DOES BOTOX LAST?
In general, the effects of BOTOX last about 3 – 6 months.
As with any treatment, of course, the longevity of the results will vary from patient to patient.
