Botox
Are you among the millions of Americans who feel young at heart but when you look in the mirror you find that you don’t look as young as you feel? Our office provides patients with aesthetic treatments like Botox to help reduce the visible signs of aging.
Botox injections block the neuron impulses that control facial muscles, helping to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that are underlying without the need for invasive surgical procedures.
We commonly use Botox to treat areas such as:
- Forehead lines
- Lines on the sides of your nose
- Neck wrinkles and creases
- Upper lip lines
- Dimpling
- Frown lines
What is Botox?
Botox or Botulinum toxin type A is a toxin which is created by bacterium Clostridium botulinum.
By injecting it into targeted areas of the face, it relaxes the muscles and blocks the nerves that contribute to fine lines and wrinkles created by consistent movement.
Botox has temporary effects which can last a few months up to a year. With Botox injections you can expect to start noticing the effects of the treatments relatively quickly, within a few short days and increased improvement within a couple of weeks.
Your age does not necessarily determine your predisposition to the appearance of aging. Genetics, environment, exposure to UV rays, and diet are also major contributing factors to the way our skin ages. Our medical professionals are dedicated to finding patients a safe alternative to plastic surgery.
Who is a Candidate for Botox?
It is a commonly used phrase “you are only as old as you feel” but if you feel young and vibrant and your skin is not showing the youthful glow you have on the inside, it can make you see yourself as older when you look in the mirror.
You deserve to look as radiant as you feel.
As long as you are an adult over the age of 18, you are a candidate for Botox injections. Don’t let the visible signs of aging hold you back from living a youthful lifestyle.
