What is Botox?
Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin utilized in cosmetic procedures to reduce wrinkles. Originating from its medical use in treating conditions such as chronic migraines and muscle spasms, Botox works by blocking nerve signals that stimulate muscle contractions. This causes the muscles to relax, thereby smoothing out wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. Botox is not permanent. Results typically last 3-6 months requiring repeated treatment for maintenance.

- Frown Lines: Soften the “11’s” between the eyebrows.
- Crow’s Feet: Reduce fine lines around the eyes.
- Bunny Lines: Minimize lines on the sides of the nose.
- Chin: Improve the appearance of a dimpled or “peach pit” chin.
- Jawline: Soften the appearance of a square jawline for a more feminine look.
