BOTOX® Cosmetic: Reduces Fine Lines &
Wrinkles
Safe & Effective/No Downtime/Rapid Results
Most Common Areas Treated:
- The lines that appear between your brows
- Worry lines of forehead
- Sagging eye brow
- Crows feet
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a therapeutic agent that affects the muscles
responsible for wrinkles. The relaxed muscle smoothes out lines
that have developed over time.
BOTOX® Cosmetic® primarily addresses lines
in the skin known as dynamic wrinkles, which includes
crows feet around the eyes and wrinkles visible while smiling,
laughing or raising the eyebrows. These lines are normally less
noticeable when your face is relaxed. BOTOX® Cosmetic may also
be used for bands in the neck.
BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments usually last about
15-20 minutes and keep the muscles that cause lines relaxed for
up to four to six months. Results are visible within 3-5 days after
treatment, and treatment is fast and minimally invasive.
Candidates generally range from the ages of 25
to 65, as wrinkles in people over 65 are considered static
and do not disappear when the skin relaxes. There are other procedures
which target static wrinkles. Each patient is unique, however, and
consultations are recommended to determine the best and most effective
treatment plan.
A small amount of BOTOX® Cosmetic is injected
with a fine needle into the targeted areas. No anesthetic is necessary,
and you can continue with your everyday activities immediately following
the procedure.
After four to six months, the effects of BOTOX®
Cosmetic begin to wear off and wrinkles reappear, though often not
as deep or visible as they were prior to treatment. By returning
for repeat treatments, fewer injections are required in the future
to maintain young-looking skin as the treatment wears off.
