What Does Botox Do?

This injectable treatment works by smoothing away unwanted wrinkles on a variety of areas. It is injected directly into the area you wish to have treated and works by blocking the signals from the nerves to the muscles, thereby smoothing away unwanted wrinkles. They actually soften and the muscles that cause the wrinkles relax.

Treatable Areas

There are a number of areas in which this treatment can smooth away wrinkles. If you have another area of concern that is not mentioned, let our staff know. They can take a look and see if this treatment could benefit those areas as well.

The Forehead

This is the most popular area for treatment as the forehead tends to develop wrinkles quickly due to the facial expressions we make on a daily basis. This treatment is highly effective at smoothing away even the more severe wrinkles on this location. It can take years off of one’s appearance in just a single treatment session.

The Eyes

The outside corners of the eyes, sometimes called “crow’s feet” are another popular area of treatment. The lines can be smoothed away quickly. Also, the lines that develop under the eyes can also be treated, often plumping up the area to smooth them away.

Around the Mouth

The lines around the outside of the mouth are a concern for many people but this treatment can take care of them fast. It can also be used on the fine lines that sometimes form above the upper lip.

Between the Brows

The area in between the brows can develop wrinkles that can get deep quickly. This treatment can smooth away those wrinkles before they become severe and this also can take many years off of one’s appearance.

The Brows

The brows themselves can sometimes become saggy or lower than one might want but this treatment can help. It will lift those brows back up based on your preferences.

The Jawline

The area around the chin and the jawline can not only develop wrinkles but can also become saggier than it once was. This treatment can help sculpt the area and give the jawline a more youthful look.
