BOTOX® Cosmetic, a purified form of the botulinum toxin, is injected in miniscule amounts into the appropriate muscle causing it to relax and thus diminish or eliminate the lines or furrow. BOTOX® Cosmetic has been used for over ten years to treat ophthalmological disorders, and is fast becoming the chosen relatively inexpensive, non-surgical treatment to reverse visible signs of aging. After treatment a patient treated with BOTOX® Cosmetic can still frown and smile, but when they do the expression wrinkles around the eyes and forehead are diminished. Correction with BOTOX® Cosmetic is very natural and most patients feel that they have a more wide-eyed, rested and less angry look. BOTOX® Cosmetic correction lasts an average of four months, after repeated injections the results may be even longer lasting. Effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic become apparent in the first three to five days after treatment. BOTOX® Cosmetic can be combined with other forms of facial rejuvenation such as collagen injections, laser resurfacing, chemical peels or microdermabrasion.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is also now being used to treat excessive sweating! Call for more information.
