BOTOX
Lines, wrinkles and grooves are an inevitable aspect of facial aging. They’re called dynamic wrinkles that are caused by movement of muscles from smiling, laughing or frowning. Botox is commonly used for the correction of these dynamic wrinkles. This non-surgical procedure is safe, common and very affective is correcting wrinkles. The injections are performed in the office, take less than 15 minutes and come with no downtime. The product is injected to relax the muscle, and has the effect of softening the lines, making them less noticeable. Injections are performed using a very fine-needle. Our patients experience little to no discomfort and there is no recovery time needed. Minimal amount of bruising and swelling is normal and can be easily covered with make-up.
