BOTOX Cosmetic can be used to smooth wrinkles in the neck and face to create a more youthful appearance. It is especially useful in the eye area. Removing wrinkles from between the eyes can dramatically change a person’s look from one of permanent anger or sadness to one of contentment and looking well rested. It is also frequently used on the thin wrinkles that surround the eyes (often called crow’s feet) but can also be used in other areas, such as along the jaw and chin.
The solution in these treatments is made of botulinum A toxin, a purified protein made form botulism bacteria. This solution temporarily paralyzes the nerves of the facial muscles so that they cannot contract and cause wrinkles in the area being treated.
The treatment usually last up to 6 months or even more. If you are considering BOTOX cosmetic treatment, ask Dr. Williamson if this is right for you.
