Overview
If your frown lines, crow’s feet or other facial wrinkles bother you, ask about BOTOX injections. It’s a simple, safe procedure. It makes wrinkles less noticeable and gives you a younger look.
What is BOTOX®?
It’s the brand name for a protein called “botulinum toxin.” When injected in small doses, it causes muscle tissue to relax. And when the underlying muscle relaxes, wrinkles smooth out. This smoothing isn’t permanent, but it lasts for months. Then, you can come back and have it done again. You can stop the injections at any time without causing any lasting changes.
- A quick 10-minute treatment with minimal downtime
- You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours for moderate to severe frown lines
- It delivers predictable, subtle results, so you look like you, only with less noticeable facial lines
- BOTOX® also known as onabotulinumtoxinA is the first and only treatment FDA-approved to temporarily make moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines look better in adults.
How Does BOTOX® Work?
BOTOX® targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines — the repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, smiling and raising the eyebrows over the years. We will inject these muscles with BOTOX® to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice a visible smoothing of the frown lines between your brows, your crow’s feet lines and your forehead lines.
The Injections
During the BOTOX procedure, you get a series of injections. They go in specific spots to target your wrinkles. The needle is small, and most people don’t find the injections to be very painful. You may feel some mild burning or stinging. This goes away quickly
