What it is
Botox is a purified form of botulinum toxin type A that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles, smoothing dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated movements such as frowning and squinting. Commonly treated areas include the forehead, crow’s feet and frown lines between the eyebrows. Results are noticeable within a few days, and minimal recovery time is required, although there is the potential for bruising.
Types
Cosmetic Botox: Targets wrinkles and fine lines.
Therapeutic Botox: Addresses issues such as excessive sweating, migraines and jaw clenching/teeth grinding.
Benefits
Provides a refreshed appearance and prevents deepening wrinkles with minimal downtime.
