What Is Botox® Cosmetic?

Botox Cosmetic is an FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A product, manufactured by Allergan, designed to treat facial wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movement. This cosmetic use of botulinum toxin works by blocking nerve signals to the facial muscles, relaxing the targeted muscles and preventing them from contracting.

What Can Botox® Treat?

Botox is one of the most effective treatments for dynamic wrinkles, those caused by movement in the facial muscles. We commonly use botox to treat:

Frown lines between the eyebrows

Forehead lines

Crow’s feet around the eyes

Neck bands and minor skin sagging

Gummy smile correction (when the upper lip rises too high)

Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), a non-cosmetic but highly successful treatment

Many patients choose to combine botox and dermal fillers for complete facial rejuvenation, addressing both expression lines and volume loss.

How Botox® Cosmetic Works

Botox treatments involve injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin directly into the facial muscles causing wrinkles. The botox injections temporarily stop the nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions. This relaxation allows the skin above the muscles to smooth out, reducing the appearance of lines.

Are You a Good Candidate for Botox®?

If you’re concerned about facial wrinkles or early signs of aging, you may be a good candidate for botox. We commonly treat patients of all skin types who want to reduce dynamic wrinkles while preserving facial movement.

Ideal Candidates:

Avoid strenuous exercise until cleared by your reconstructive surgeon

Keep the treated area clean and follow specific instructions for aftercare

Attend all follow up appointments to monitor healing

Be patient—final results can take several months as collagen remodeling occurs

The Procedure:
