BOTOX® Cosmetic

Millions of Americans have benefited from BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments to treat, as well as prevent, frown lines of the face and crow's feet around the eyes.

Often wrinkles are creases that have been worn into the skin and subcutaneous tissue by making the same repeated expression over many years. These "expression lines" are what we refer to as dynamic wrinkles. Typical areas for dynamic wrinkles include frown lines (2 vertical and parallel lines) between the eyebrows, crow’s feet around the eyes, forehead lines, and the lines around the lips. These wrinkles frequently add years to one’s appearance, making them look angry, tired or worried. BOTOX® treatments can help to prevent the unintended display of negative feelings and help some people express themselves more accurately.

While you may have earned those worry lines and wrinkles, you don't have to show them. If dynamic wrinkles are making you look older than you feel or appear at all negative, BOTOX® can help restore the relaxed, youthful appearance you desire.

Areas Treated

Furrows and lines across the forehead
The crow's feet around the eyes
Bunny lines across the bridge of the nose

The Remedy

Injections of BOTOX® Cosmetic into facial muscles block the chemicals that signal muscle contraction and relaxes the overlying skin and soft tissue.

Result

Treated areas are relaxed and the appearance is softened.

Number of Treatments

A single series of injections generally lasts for 4 months and may last up to 6.

Treatment Time

20 minutes

Recovery Time

Minimal, Do not lay down flat for 4 hours following treatment. No strenuous activities the day of the treatment.

Maintenance Treatments

Every 4 to 6 months. Keeping up with regular treatments and not allowing the muscle to regain complete strength will decrease the amount needed for future injections.
