Fight wrinkles with botox injections

Botox is primarily used to treat frown lines, crow's feet, wrinkles and fine lines that tend to accumulate over time as part of the aging process.

Botox is used to smooth the negative impact of time and the environment on the skin by relaxing the underlying muscles. The skin becomes tighter and in just a few days after the procedure makes your wrinkles disappear.

How does Botox work? When we laugh or frown, the brain sends a signal to the muscles to make the expression lines appear in the face. Botox blocks the signals from the nerve to the facial muscles to stop them contracting, Botox is not a wrinkle remover; it can only work on expression lines that are controlled by muscles. It will work on the specific muscles that have been injected leaving the surrounding muscles to work normally. It cannot make the lines disappear completely but it will make an improvement to areas being treated.

Among other uses Botox can also be very beneficial to people with excessive sweating (underarms, palms). This condition is called hyperhidrosis, it can be very bothersome for people. The treatment is simple and involves tiny injections of Botox on the underarms and palms. Results last for months at a time, and patients have reported a very high satisfaction rate.

Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating underarms) is a medical condition that is recognized by some medical insurances. We will help you to apply for coverage.
