What is Botox?

Botox is a medical protein that is a medical-grade form of the botulinum toxin A. For aesthetic treatments, it is injected into the muscles of your face to help minimize the appearance of fine lines or furrows. Botox is a generally safe treatment that has been used for many years for cosmetic purposes.

To give an indication of its safety, a lethal injection of Botox would be up to 3,000 units, and cerebral palsy sufferers are often given doses up to a maximum of 1,000 units to help with muscle spasms.

When we use Botox for cosmetic purposes, the toxin is purified and diluted before it is injected into the facial muscles. The function of the toxin in Botox is to block the nerve impulses that control the movement of muscles.

It does this by restricting a patient’s ability to contract the muscles. Much of the time, a smoothing effect will be noticed almost immediately after the injection and will continue to improve over the next few days. The results of most cosmetic Botox treatments will last from 3 to 6 months.

Am I a Candidate for Botox Injections?

For many cosmetic treatments, Botox injections offer quite a few benefits over more invasive surgery. When you have cosmetic surgery on your face, there is always the risk of complications or side effects, or of the surgery itself not turning out precisely as you’d planned.

Here are some of the common areas we can treat with Botox injections that will help enhance your appearance:

Forehead Wrinkles- Horizontal creases on your forehead that tend to move with your expressions
Frown lines- These are the lines between your eyebrows that form when you frown
Crow’s feet- These are lines or wrinkles that extend from the outside corners of your eyes when you laugh or smile
Smoker’s lines- These are lines that form around your mouth when you purse your lips and can happen even in non-smokers
Neckbands or cords- With normal aging, bands or cords can start to show around your neck as these muscles start to sag
Marionette lines- These lines extend from the corners of your mouth down toward your jaw
Sagging eyebrows- When your eyebrows start to sag, Botox is a safe alternative to a brow lift
Bunny lines- These lines appear on either side of your nose when you crinkle it and can spread from the bridge of your nose
