Botox Injections
Botox has always been a leading anti-aging treatment due to its effective and long-lasting results. It is a non-invasive, injectable treatment that can help in reducing lines, wrinkles, and creases from the face.
Botox is FDA approved as a safe and effective treatment against the signs of aging. It is derived from Botulinum Toxin Type A. Botox works by blocking communication between the nerves and muscles of the treatment area. Small doses of Botox target the muscles beneath your wrinkles to paralyze them. When the muscle doesn’t contract, the skin stays smooth and the wrinkles fade with time. Together that gives your face a youthful and attractive appearance.
