Botox®
The face can begin to age as early as 20 years old and age throughout your life. Individual differences affect how quickly and how much your face ages. Our medical staff members have received specialized training in understanding how the body ages and addressing your concerns.
The advantages of cosmetic injections are something we would love to discuss with you! We invite you to schedule a consultation with our staff at The Regenerative Center Spa if you’re prepared to revitalize your skin and discuss your concerns.
Facial lines and wrinkles can be caused by frowning, smiling, squinting, or prolonged exposure to sunlight, and they may even be an unavoidable result of aging. Botox can help you relax your wrinkles and relieve stress.
How can I get rid of my wrinkles?
Botox is a nerve blocker that has been used for over three decades to relax facial muscles. It is injected directly into the facial muscles that tense up and cause deep wrinkles, such as the forehead and eyebrow furrows (often called worry and frown lines) or crow’s feet. Botox blocks the nerve signals that cause these wrinkles, allowing them to relax and smooth out.
About Botox
Botulinum toxin type A, also known as Botox, is an injectable that works to smooth wrinkles in the face by blocking nerve signals to the muscles. Botox injections are frequently used to treat crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead lines, furrowed brows, and neck wrinkles.
Am I a good candidate?
If you have lines around your mouth, brows, or forehead, you could benefit from Botox. Botox injections require that you be in good health and not smoke.
How are Botox injections performed?
We will carefully select the injection sites for your Botox injection procedure based on your target areas. Botulinum toxin type A will be injected with a small needle in less than fifteen minutes, weakening the contracted muscles that cause your fine lines and wrinkles.
Results and Recovery
Smoothed wrinkles can be seen in a matter of days, but it may take up to a week. Although results vary, most patients’ injections last three to four months. Bruising, swelling, minor discomfort, temporary facial drooping, headache, or nausea may occur in some patients.
