Botox®
Are you troubled by your worry lines, frown lines, laugh lines, or crow's feet? Many people find the solution to these troubles with Botox Cosmetic.
Facial lines are caused by the repeated use of the underlying facial muscles which over time results in a permanent crease or wrinkle. As an alternative to surgery in younger patients it is possible to reduce these lines by reducing the action of the underlying muscle using botulinum (Botox®). This temporarily reduces the action of the underlying muscle. Where Botox® is injected it reduces the facial movements which result in wrinkling. This gives a smoother, more rested appearance to the face. Botox also has a preventative effect when used repeatedly to reduce the onset of wrinkles forming in the long term. This is partly due to the effect of re-educating the facial muscles not to make expressions which result in wrinkling. To achieve the best results Botox® is injected to a level which does not cause complete freezing of the muscles but weakens them so that some movement is still possible.
You probably have heard about Botox®. These tiny injections are one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures in the United States. Millions of people have achieved amazing results with Botox® without any adverse side effects, saying bye-bye to their dynamic wrinkles and hello to smooth and youthful skin. Botox® treatments are effective, affordable, convenient and have no down time. Botox® can be used in conjunction with facial fillers and laser skin resurfacing for an even better and enhanced look.
