Chances are, you've heard of BOTOX® Cosmetic. This injectable wrinkle treatment has the ability to reduce the appearance of wrinkles in many areas of the face. BOTOX® Cosmetic works by relaxing muscles that have developed a habit of contracting involuntarily, causing some wrinkles. When the muscles relax, the wrinkles smooth to a great extent. BOTOX® Cosmetic is popular because it is effective, quick, and safe.
BOTOX® Cosmetic injections can be used to treat wrinkles:
• In your forehead, including vertical lines between the brows
• At the corners of your eyes (crow's feet)
• Around the mouth (lipstick lines)
Although BOTOX® Cosmetic is a popular choice for wrinkle correction, and effective for many wrinkles, it is not effective for all wrinkles or other signs of facial aging. During a consultation, we can assess your concerns and help you decide whether BOTOX® Cosmetic, injecable fillers like Restylane and Radiesse, or surgical treatments like eyelid surgery or browlift might be best for you.
