Botox treatment is administered through a series of precise and formulated injection points. The product is introduced to the face via ultra-fine microneedles. They are specially-designed to reduce the pain of the injection and to make your treatment as comfortable and stress-free as possible. We do, however, provide numbing cream or ice for patients, if requested.
The wrinkles injections themselves usually take a matter of minutes, but we may wish to monitor you for a brief period after your treatment, or consult you before treatment if it is your first time. This is to ensure that you get the right treatment for you, and that your safety is upheld at all times. Some of the most popular areas to treat with Botox include:
GLABELLA
The glabella (“Elevens”) refers to the small area of the forehead between the eyebrows. As we often use this muscle to create frowning, it can mean some of our most prominent wrinkles and grooves are formed in this area. Relaxing the muscle and the tension in this area can dramatically reduce lines and soften your facial features.
FOREHEAD
Elevation of our eyebrows causes transverse wrinkles and creases on the forehead also the elasticity of our forehead skin decreases as we age, the fat of our forehead decreases, and all causes the wrinkles to become deeper and stay. A small amount of Botox in few injections to this area can help to soften the forehead skin.
CROW’S FEET
Or laughter lines appear around the outside of our eyes and as we age gravity brings down the tail of our eyebrows. Treating this area softens the skin outside the eyes and also elevated the tail of the eyebrow giving a fresher and younger look.
Treatment of the involved muscles with Botox very quickly relieves the symptoms and gives you and your partner a good night sleep. As it is a habit, with a year or two of repetition of treatment usually the problem goes away forever.
