Botox
What is Botox?
Botox® is one of the most widely known brands of botulinum toxin injections. Botulinum toxins are neurotoxins that affect nerves and cause muscle weakening. You might get a botulinum toxin injection for cosmetic or medical reasons. Healthcare providers inject small amounts of Botox into specific muscles to smooth wrinkles, prevent migraine headaches and treat a wide range of other health conditions.
How does Botox work?
Botox blocks nerve signals to muscles. As a result, injected muscles can’t contract (tense up). These effects are always temporary but can last for several months. The muscle injected depends on the primary area of concern. Several areas can be treated in one session.
What cosmetic conditions can be treated with Botox?
Botox cosmetic injections are used to address signs of aging. This treatment can smooth fine lines and wrinkles in several areas of your face, including your:
- Eyebrows
- Forehead
- Eyes (crow’s feet)
- Lips
- Chin
- Jawline
- Neck
- Nose
Price for Botox is $12/ Unit.
Total cost for each individual patient’s treatment varies.
