Although aging is inevitable, looking older does not have to be. BOTOX® injections offer a way to let your wrinkles relax without making major changes to your appearance. The treatment does not change the way you look; it just helps to make you look younger. BOTOX® has become so popular due to the fact that it is completely non-surgical yet yields amazing results.
How Does BOTOX® Work?
Dynamic wrinkles are the ones that show up on your face when you make certain facial expressions. Collagen production slows down with age, leaving the skin less able to “bounce back” after your face relaxes. Examples of these types of wrinkles include crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines.
The active ingredient in BOTOX® injections is able to temporarily stop key muscle movements in your face, giving your wrinkles a chance to relax. It is injected in a highly strategic way so that the rest of your face is not affected. You do not have to worry about being left with a “frozen” face.
The Process
Getting BOTOX® injections is a quick and simple process. The injections themselves usually take just minutes, and there is no set downtime afterward. How many injections you need will depend on your personal needs. This is something that will be discussed at your initial consultation, where we can discuss your goals for BOTOX® treatment as well as your health and medical history.
Results appear in the days after your injections. That’s because it takes the active ingredient a little bit of time to relax the targeted muscles. Once movement stops, the skin will start to smooth out. The results last for multiple months, with most people needing to come in for a follow-up treatment every so often for ongoing benefits.
