Botox® Cosmetic Injections in Boca Raton
What Is Botox?
Botox is a popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment that involves the injection of botulinum toxin type A, a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It temporarily relaxes facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. Botox is also used for various medical purposes, including treating migraines, excessive sweating, and muscle spasms. Botox works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles in the treated area, preventing them from contracting. When these muscles are relaxed, the overlying skin smooths out, reducing the visibility of wrinkles and fine lines. The effects are temporary, typically lasting six to eight months, after which the muscles gradually regain their activity, and wrinkles may reappear.
