How does Botox® work?

Botox® utilizes a natural, purified protein that is administered at very low doses to reduce the contractions of the muscles that cause those persistent frown lines that have developed over time. While the results are dramatic, it will not radically change your facial appearance. The muscles are simply relaxed, so you can still frown, smile, or look surprised without the wrinkles and creases.

What is a Botox® treatment like?

Botox® procedures are fast, simple, and minimally invasive, and no anesthesia is required. Injections are administered with an ultra-fine needle directly into the area being treated. Discomfort is minimal and brief, and once complete, there is usually no discomfort. Most people return directly to work or normal activity following treatment.

What areas can be treated with Botox®?

Botox® treatments can be performed in a number of locations, including between your brows, eye area, smile lines, and neck. Effects of Botox® appear within a few days and generally last from four to six months.
