Botox Therapy

Botox Cosmetic – what is it?

Botox is used as a temporary treatment for patients between the ages of 18 and 65, and can only be prescribed to you by a healthcare professional. The treatments are quick and comfortable, and within hours you will begin to notice a difference in the way your skin looks and feels.

Benefits

Noticeable results, no surgery, and no recovery time. Botox can relieve any of the symptoms that make you feel less confident, and help you achieve a more youthful, radiant appearance. There are many different reasons that patients choose to receive Botox treatment, from wanting to remove fine lines and wrinkles to treating more severe conditions such as TMJ and chronic migraines.

otox – how does it work?

Botox uses a special protein to block overactive nerve impulses, restricting muscle contractions. In doing so, it helps to relax the muscles beneath the skin, so that fine lines and wrinkles become less visible. This gives the skin a healthy, more youthful appearance. Depending on each individual case, the results can last between one and six months. Treatment is temporary, and once the Botox begins to wear off, the skin will return to the way it looked before treatment. Botox is also used to relieve symptoms of TMJ, as well as provide comfort to patients receiving dental implants. In each case, Botox is used to reduce the amount of stress placed on the teeth and jaw so that patients feel more comfortable.
