What is Botox?

Botox is a neuromodulator that contains botulinum toxin. That means that it can inhibit certain muscle contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles by blocking nerve signals. Dynamic wrinkles are the result of constant facial muscle movements, and they develop over many years. Botox is a minimally invasive and non-surgical cosmetic treatment. It can treat wrinkles, loose skin, fine lines, and other facial folds that make you look older. The end result is smoother, younger-looking skin.

Since Botox is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment, there is no downtime. Patients can come in for a quick session and resume their daily routine immediately after. There are some minor instructions to keep in mind, such as not rubbing or laying on the treated area for a few hours. These guidelines will ensure patients get the most out of their treatments. Other than that, treatments are very straightforward. 

How Long Does It Last?

When the results eventually wear off, you can visit us for another quick treatment session. You can also schedule routine visits to enjoy uninterrupted results. This will ensure you maintain your youthful skin for as long as possible.

How Long Does It Take To Work?

Botox needs some time to work, but you don’t have to wait long to see the results. Neuromodulators work quickly to inhibit muscle contractions and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. You can expect to see natural, gradual changes in your skin a few days after your treatment session, and full results should be apparent by week 2.
