Botox Therapy
Fine lines caused by facial muscle expressions like frowning or squinting become deeper and more permanent as we age. Cosmetic denervation (relaxing the muscle) can be done with a botulinum toxin (Botox) injection. The treatment is quick and safe, performed in the office.
A tiny needle with a small amount of Botox is injected into strategic locations to produce the desired effect. It will take effect in 3-7 days with the maximum results achieved after 10-14 days. Very gradually it will wear off after 3-4 months and the wrinkles will re-appear. Successive treatments every 3-4 months can maintain the desired results.
