Botox
Botox has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the medical aesthetics industry. Celebrities and beauty bloggers play a huge role in influencing and popularizing this enhancement treatment. Today, it is widely used by females and males from all age groups to diminish fine lines and wrinkles. Our certified injectors at AAA Wellness and Rehab clinic will accomplish the youthful results you have been anticipating.
WHAT IS BOTOX®?
Botox is a cosmetic treatment used for beauty enhancements and dermatological conditions. The name Botox comes from the medication that is used for Botox called ‘onobotulinuim toxin’. This neurotoxin is known to be hazardous, but when medically used in small doses, it is completely safe.
Botox is mainly used for eliminating deep creases and wrinkles on the face. Additionally, it is also used to effectively treat hyperhidrosis, which is an excess sweating condition. Used by millions of people worldwide, Botox is a safe and effective cosmetic procedure that boosts your youthful glow. Our cosmetic professionals safely inject patients in the appropriate areas of concern.
HOW DOES BOTOX WORK?
Overtime, with age the skin develops fine lines and wrinkles that are caused by the contraction and movement of the facial muscles. Botox works by weakening muscle contractions in the face when properly injected in the muscle. The results of the treatment do not appear right away, it may take up to a week to notice a difference. When the Botox is injected it freezes the facial muscles and the effect can last for months depending on the dosage used. This effective treatment softens and eliminates fine lines and wrinkles giving you a dramatically beautiful outcome. Our Botox Caledon aestheticians are certified injectors that will determine the appropriate locations for the Botox injections.
