• Mechanism: Botox temporarily relaxes muscles, blocking nerve signals to prevent wrinkles caused by facial expressions.
• Target Areas: It works best on dynamic wrinkles like crow's feet (around the eyes), frown lines (between the eyes), and forehead lines, but can also treat areas like bunny lines, gummy smile, lip flip, masseter, and downturned mouth.

• Migraine: Can drastically reduce the severity and frequency of headaches.
• TMJ pain: Normally caused by teeth grinding - relieves almost immediate pain and discomfort in the jaw.
• Facial Tics and Facial Spasms: Will decrease and even stop the involuntary muscle movement.
• Hyperhydrosis: An excellent treatment to control excessive sweating.

• Injection: A licensed practitioner injects small amounts of Botox into specific muscles. The process is relatively quick, often lasting around 10-20 minutes.
• Minimal Discomfort: Some patients describe the sensation as a slight pinch.
• Downtime: There's little to no downtime after the procedure. Most people return to normal activities right away.

• Time to See Effects: Results typically begin to appear within 3 to 5 days after the treatment, with full effects visible after 1 to 2 weeks.
• Duration: The effects of Botox are temporary, lasting about 3 to 4 months. As the effects wear off, muscle activity returns, and wrinkles may reappear.
• Maintenance: Regular treatments are required to maintain results over time.

• Quick and Non-Surgical: Botox is a minimally invasive treatment with no need for surgery or recovery time.
• Effective for Dynamic Wrinkles: It's particularly successful in smoothing out wrinkles caused by facial movements.
• Preventative: Botox can be used as a preventive measure to avoid the formation of deeper wrinkles.

• Common Side Effects: Redness, swelling, bruising, mild headaches, or flu-like symptoms.
• Other Side Effects: A rare but possible side effect is eyelid drooping or uneven eyebrows, which is temporary and can be corrected.

Who Should Avoid Botox

• Pregnancy or Breastfeeding
• People with neuromuscular disorders or allergies to botulinum toxin.
• Those on medications like blood thinners or muscle relaxants.

• Certified Professional: Always ensure that your Botox injections are administered by a qualified and experienced Aesthetic Doctor.
• Consultation: A consultation is necessary to discuss your goals, expectations, and any concerns about the procedure. If desired, treatment can be done the same day of consultation.
