Skin Injectables

Botox

Botox is a neurotoxin that temporarily paralyzes muscles. It is commonly used to treat wrinkles and fine lines, especially in the forehead, around the eyes, and between the eyebrows. It can also be used to treat excessive sweating, muscle spasms, and certain types of headaches.

How it works

Botox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that signals muscles to contract. This causes the muscles to relax, which smooths out wrinkles and fine lines.

Benefits

• Can significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
• Has a relatively quick and easy application process
• The effects typically last for 3-4 months
