Over time, as we do things like laugh, squint, or scowl, the lines created in our facial muscles deepen and become permanent, forming wrinkles and divots. BOTOX is a neurotoxin made from a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, which works by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract. This results in the temporary relaxation of facial muscles, which can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. This temporary relaxation can last anywhere from three to four months and prevents the acceleration of deep lines and wrinkles through repeated furrowing of the brows and other related muscles. Regular treatments can help maintain a more youthful appearance over time; this is why BOTOX is also used as a preventative measure to avoid fine lines and wrinkles from settling in.
Experience what everyone has been talking about! Botox has helped millions of patients worldwide looking to restore a youthful complexion. The effective treatment can eliminate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with a single treatment. Patients can count on:

Preparing for your Botox as treatment is extremely easy. Only a few items need to be completed before treatment. They include:
Before we get started, any targeted areas will be thoroughly cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to ease discomfort (though most clients find the procedure comfortable without it)! Our expert nurse injector will then strategically administer small amounts of Botox using a fine needle, targeting the muscles responsible for your dynamic wrinkles. Botox works to inhibit muscle contractions that cause wrinkles, and this exact process is repeated in each targeted treatment area. The entire treatment should take place within 10-15 minutes, depending on the areas treated.
Patients may feel mild swelling, redness, and bruising from the injections. This is a normal part of the process and will pass within 2-3 days. These symptoms can be resolved by gently applying an ice pack to the area and taking the recommended pain relievers. You may resume normal activities after treatment but hold off on physically demanding movement for an additional 24 hours. Refrain from touching the treated areas as it may cause the botulinum toxin to migrate to other areas of the face.
Great results can be expected once the short recovery stage ends. You will see a preview of your results in 3-5 days; in 2 weeks you’ll enjoy your full results. When this happens, patients will see remarkable
improvements in the condition of their skin. You can keep your results for about four months. This is because the body will slowly metabolize Botox and allow the gradual return of muscle movement in the treated area.
However, patients who have fallen in love with their Botox results can schedule follow-up appointments every few months to keep their skin smooth and youthful. For more information about the latest treatments available from Kelley, be sure to check out her blog!
