Wrinkle Relaxers are an excellent treatment option to create a smooth, youthful face specifically reducing unwanted facial wrinkles caused by expression. Most commonly referred to by its product name, BOTOX ® Cosmetic, or Wrinkle Relaxers are most often performed on the brow (glabella), forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), on the ridge of the nose (bunny lines), on the border of the lips (perioral wrinkles along the vermillion border), and neck. There is no downtime and minimal discomfort and risk.
Treatments are approximately 10-30 minutes depending on the treatment area. Your skin will be cleansed prior to beginning the treatment. You will be asked to contract the muscles revealing the wrinkles upon expression. These areas will be marked or notated and then treated. A very fine needle will be inserted into the muscle where the product will be placed. This process will repeat in each area that the Provider feels is necessary to reduce the contraction, with the goal of creating a natural look.
BOTOX COSMETIC
What is a Botox® Treatment?
Botox® Cosmetic is a purified non-animal protein that, when expertly injected into selected facial and neck muscles, will improve the look of moderate-to-severe wrinkle lines. Botox® works by temporarily blocking the nerve impulses to the injected muscles, thus reducing muscle activity that causes persistent lines to form on the face and neck. Botox® must be administered by a healthcare professional and is a low discomfort, nonsurgical treatment. As we age, the movements that are repeated in the face create lines or wrinkles. Over a period of years, these wrinkles become deeper and deeper. The beauty of Botox® is that within a short period of time the wrinkles disappear and we can appear 10 or more years younger.
How long will a Botox® treatment last?
Results usually last 3 – 4 months, after which a repeat injection can be performed to maintain the aesthetic results.
What areas can be treated with Botox®?
Areas which are treated with Botox® may include frown lines, forehead lines, bunny lines, crow’s feet, brows and lip lines.
