Botox® Cosmetic

BOTOX® Cosmetic is the most popular cosmetic procedure in the United States. Millions of Americans have used this procedure to combat the wrinkles caused by laughing, frowning, and years of vibrant life. These "expression lines" are wrinkles on the forehead and near the eyes that are caused by your face's expressive muscles contracting. That's partly why BOTOX® Cosmetic is so popular - everybody smiles, laughs, and frowns.

BOTOX® Cosmetic works by preventing the muscles that cause "expression lines" from contracting. With the muscle relaxed, you can freely express yourself and the muscles that wrinkle your skin won't contract. Without the muscle wrinkling the skin, the lines begin to fade away.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is injected with a very fine needle with minimal pain amounting to a pin prick. The procedure lasts about 10 minutes, and you can resume normal activities immediately. You will probably see results within three days, but maximum results are typically reached in ten to fourteen days. As your "expression lines" soften you will experience a younger, more relaxed appearance. The effects will last three to four months, and can last substantially longer with repeated treatments.

BOTOX® Cosmetic procedures are a safe way of reducing your face's expression lines, and that's why millions of Americans continue to make BOTOX® Cosmetic the most popular cosmetic procedure. If any side effects occur, they tend to be mild and temporary. Temporary bruising may occur, but will stop after two to three days. Rarely, asymmetry of expression may occur or the drooping of an eyelid. If this happens, consult your physician.
