BOTOX is a medical-grade FDA approved product that is derived from a strain of botulinum toxin. It is used to minimize frown lines and wrinkles that develop as a result of years of repeated facial expressions. Frowning, squinting, and raising our eyebrows are just a few causes of these unwanted lines. During the aging process, we gradually lose collagen and elastin and our muscles work closer to the skin’s surface forming wrinkles. BOTOX blocks nerve activity in your muscles which results in minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and slows signs of aging.
BOTOX is not a permanent treatment but can provide results that are long lasting. You can expect smoother, younger looking skin for approximately 3 months and results vary by individual. If you discontinue treatment, the frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines will gradually return. BOTOX treatment is safe and effective and will still allow you to make normal facial expressions giving natural results. There is no downtime or recovery and minimal side effects.
BOTOX will minimize the appearance of:
- Crow’s feet
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines between your brows
- Smile lines around your mouth
- Gummy Smile
BOTOX is a quick and nearly painless treatment performed by our doctors. Dentists have especially advanced training in the function of oral and facial structures making them the ideal practitioners to provide Botox injections.
