Botox, Xeomin and Dysport are Neurotoxin (injectable wrinkle removers) that relaxes the expression lines by blocking the nerves of the tiny facial muscles, so they do not contract. Botox Xeomin targets dynamic lines that include crow’s feet lines, forehead, frown lines, marionette lines, bunny lines, vertical lip lines, chin wrinkles, and neck wrinkles.It is also extremely popular for jaw slimming (re-shaping), brow lifting, hyperhidrosis. Microbotox also helps to smoothen out the texture of the skin and can even calm severe acne!

What Is Botox?

Botox® Cosmetic is the most well-known injectable neuromodulator. Made by Allergan, it temporarily relaxes facial muscles to soften the look of dynamic facial wrinkles created by repeated muscle movement (think: frown lines and furrowed brows).

It works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, so the injected muscle can’t contract.

Originally developed to treat medical conditions such as cerebral palsy, Botox is FDA-approved to treat crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines.

Botox FAQ

The following is a list of frequently asked questions about Botox from patients at our offices. If you still have questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to contact us.

How Does Botox Work?

The process starts with a consultation, in which you and your injector discuss your concerns, goals, and medical history to ensure that the injectable is safe for you.

Photographs may also be taken, so you’re able to see the changes from your treatment. Then your face is cleansed, and the physician injects the areas of concern.

Botox shots are definitely a lunchtime procedure that usually takes about 10 minutes. You can pop out to have your treatment done, then drive yourself straight back to the office.

If you have any residual redness or bruising, it can be easily covered with makeup.

Botox blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles. The injected muscle can’t contract. That makes wrinkles relax and soften.

Botox is most often used on forehead lines, crow’s feet (lines around the eye), and frown lines. Botox won’t help with wrinkles caused by sun damage or gravity.

Candidate for botox

Botox is generally well-tolerated in a variety of people, but there are some contraindications for its use. If you’re hypersensitive to any botulinum toxin (botulism) or any of the other components included in an injection, you shouldn’t get Botox.

If you have an infection at the injection site, you’ll need to clear it up first. It’s not recommended for people with a neuromuscular disease (like multiple sclerosis or myasthenia gravis). Tell your doctor or injector about any drugs—over-the-counter, flu shots, or prescription antibiotics—you are taking, as well as supplements and vitamins.

When considering cost, keep in mind that if you receive regular Botox treatments, you might need 2-3 treatments per year to keep up your refreshed appearance, however, the frequency varies by patient. Some patients require less Botox as time goes on and thereby the costs are slightly less from year to year.
