What Is BOTOX®?

BOTOX® is made from the bacteria “botulinum toxin” in diluted form. This is injected into overworked muscles that have created lines and wrinkled to help them relax. This ultimately reduces the appearance of signs of aging. Optimal results usually take between five and ten days to show and last anywhere from three to six months depending on the person.

Who Is a Good Candidate for BOTOX®?

Those who are pregnant, have neuromuscular disease, skin disorders, or deep facial scars are probably not good candidates for BOTOX®. This is why it is so important that you discuss your medical history with your dentist. Ideal candidates for BOTOX® are usually in their late 20s or older and are looking to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. BOTOX® can also address the following imperfections.

  • Crow’s feet
  • Muscle spasms
  • Lines between the eyebrows
  • Horizontal lines on the forehead
  • Smoker’s lines around the lips
  • Lines at the corners of the mouth
