What is Botox?
Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Nucieva are all brand names for a group of drugs known as neuromodulators. Neuromodulators are a prescription drug that when injected into muscles block the transmission of nerve impulses resulting in limited muscle contraction and movement.
Neuromodulators are approved for the treatment of dynamic wrinkles. By restricting muscle movement, injections can soften frown lines between the eyebrows (glabella lines), forehead and crows feet. Neuromodulators can also be helpful in the treatment of medical conditions such as migraines, excessive sweating and teeth grinding (bruxism).
Is Botox Cosmetic Right For You?
There are multiple factors when it comes to deciding if this neuromodulator is right for you. It is always best to have a consult with one of our professionals to help decide but for now here is a good list to help you decide.
Who is a good candidate for Botox:
- Over the age of 18
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Overall healthy
- No history of neuromuscular diseases such as myasthenia gravis or multiple sclerosis
What to expect during your Botox treatment
Nobody likes going in for a procedure without knowing what to expect. Here is some information to help put you at ease.
How Long Does It Take?
Most procedures take 10-15 minutes with no recovery time needed, this allows you to return to your daily schedule immediately.
Does It Hurt?
- Injections are made with a tiny needle strategically placed to target specific muscles.
- We may numb the area or even apply ice to reduce the risk of bruising and/or swelling (see comfort menu for complete list of options).
