About Botox
Botox is an FDA approved purified protein which is injected into targeted muscles and temporarily blocks nerve signals that cause muscle movements, essentially relaxing the muscles which reduces or eliminates fine line and wrinkles.
Within 3-5 days of the Botox injections, the treated facial muscles become temporary relaxed, causing the overlying skin to lay flat and unwrinkled. The untreated facial muscles contract in a normal fashion allowing facial expression to be unaffected.
Botox injections only take a few minutes and will remain effective for 3-6 months.
