How Botox Works
Botox works by temporarily relaxing the nerves and muscles around the injection site to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Why You Develop Fine Lines and Wrinkles
As you age, your skin loses moisture and elasticity. When you smile, frown, squint, laugh, or show other emotions, fine lines, and wrinkles begin to form at the lines of expression.
How Botox Can Help You
Botox can help minimize the appearance of common fine lines and wrinkles, including:
- Crow’s feet, which are fine lines radiating from the corners of your eyes
- Glabella, which are deep creases between your eyebrows
- Furrows, which are deep lines running across your forehead
- Marionette lines, which are deep vertical lines from the corners of your mouth to your chin
Benefits of Botox
Botox is popular for many good reasons. When you choose Botox, you will enjoy:
- Quick treatment, with each Botox session requiring only a few minutes
- Safe results with treatment that has been rigorously tested and approved by the FDA
- Comfortable sessions because Botox is tolerated well by most people, and a numbing spray can be used before treatment
What You Can Expect After
You will notice excellent results within two to four days after your session. You may need additional sessions every four to six months to help maintain your best results.
