BOTOX®

BOTOX® is a purified protein that reduces muscle contractions temporarily. BOTOX® has been used in medicine for over 20 years to treat blepharospasm (eyelid spasm) and facial spasm. It is also used to treat migraine headaches and excessive sweating.

More recently, BOTOX® has been used for cosmetic reasons to reduce wrinkles in the forehead, eyelid, and lip areas. BOTOX® is FDA approved for treatment of wrinkles in the glabella (area between the eyebrows). The injections usually last 2-4 months and then need to be repeated as the BOTOX® effect wears off.

BOTOX® injections can be done with or without numbing medications. A very small amount of the BOTOX® protein is placed through a tiny needle. There is slight discomfort with placing the BOTOX® but there is no recovery time needed. The procedure takes just a few minutes, and the patient can return to work immediately without any signs of having had the procedure done. Occasionally, a patient will experience some bruising.
