Wrinkle relaxing treatment with Botox is a simple treatment which can dramatically soften facial expression lines, frown lines and crow's feet without surgery, scars and recovery time. Its absolutely a no 'down time' procedure.
When we frown, smile or laugh we contract our face into folds of skin that form dynamic wrinkles and lines such as "crows feet", forehead lines or "worry lines". Over time, these wrinkles and lines become deeper and more permanent.
How does Botox wrinkle relaxing treatment work and what is it used for?
The treatment relaxes, or puts the muscle into "hibernation" for around 3 - 4 months leaving the overlying skin looking smooth and less wrinkled. Wrinkle treatment can be described as giving a more relaxed and youthfull appearance When combined with other treatments such as dermal fillers and or tooth whitening for that all over touch up the results can be even more impressive. It can be used to soften lines and wrinkles around the forehead, eyes, lips, chin and neck.
How is Botox wrinkle relaxing treatment administered?
Tiny amounts of wrinkle relaxant are injected, using a disposable syringe, into the muscles that cause the skin to crease and furrow. Because a very fine needle is used, most clients find that there is only mild and temporary discomfort. The entire procedure usually takes no longer than a few minutes.
How safe is Botox wrinkle relaxing treatment?
Botox was first used as a wrinkle treatment by a Canadian Dermatologist in 1987. Since then it has become the number one aesthetic procedure in many countries around the world. Botox received a license for cosmetic use in the US in 2002, and in 2006 has gained approval for cosmetic use in the UK under the brand name Vistabel.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects of this treatment are rare, but can include some tenderness or bruising at the site of injection. In less than 1% of people treated with wrinkle relaxing injections can cause weakness in muscles near to the site of injection resulting in a slight and temporary droop of the eyelid or eyebrow.
