Neurotoxin/ Botulinum Toxin (Botox), a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium A, can relax the muscles on areas of the face which cause wrinkles associated with facial expressions.
Treatment with Botulinum Toxin can cause our facial expression lines of wrinkles to essentially disappear. Areas most frequently treated are glabellar area of frown lines located between the eyes; crow’s feet (lateral areas of the eyes); forehead wrinkles, jawline, marionette's line, jowls, bunny lines, etc.
Botulinum Toxin is diluted to a very controlled solution and when injected into the muscles with a very thin needle, it is almost painless. Clients may feel a slight burning sensation while the solution is being injected. The procedure takes about 15-20 minutes and the results last 3-5months. With repeated treatments, the results may tend to last longer.
