What is Botox?

Our physician-administered Botox treatments originate from the cosmetic form of botulinum toxin, often referred to by its product name Botox ® – a popular non-surgical injectable that temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet near the eyes. The toxin blocks the nerve impulses, temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles so that the skin has a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Our Botox treatment has also been shown to be effective in relieving migraine headaches and excessive sweating of the palms and/or underarms.
