What Is BOTOX®?
BOTOX® is a diluted form of botulinum toxin. When injected into certain areas, it allows patients to experience a variety of different benefits. Here are some of the uses of BOTOX®.
Wrinkle Treatment
When used for cosmetic purposes, BOTOX® reduces muscle movements that lead to fine lines and wrinkles. This enhances the youthful appearance of the skin. Optimal results usually take between five and ten days to show and last between three to six months.
TMJ Treatment
Botulinum toxin has been used medically for decades to treat muscle spasms and pain. When injected into spasming or damaged muscles, BOTOX® prevents unconscious movements that can result in pain and slow healing. If you experience pain in your temporomandibular joint (TMJ), you may be able to find relief with the help of BOTOX®. When injected into the appropriate areas of the facial muscles, it can relieve much of the tension that you feel. BOTOX® can reduce headaches, tension, and pain caused by clenching or grinding teeth and severe jaw strain. This treatment can also minimize the likelihood of some patients experiencing lockjaw.
Who Is a Good Candidate for BOTOX®?
Those who have some neuromuscular conditions, are pregnant, have skin disorders, or have deep facial scars, may not be good candidates for BOTOX®. This is why it’s so important to schedule a consultation. The best candidates for BOTOX® tend to be in their late 20s or older and are looking to correct facial imperfections, such as:
- Crow’s feet
- Lines between the eyebrows
- Muscle spasms
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Smoker’s lines
- Lines at the corners of the mouth
The Benefits of BOTOX®

- Fast Results – You may begin seeing results in 24 to 48 hours, with full results in one to two weeks.
