What is Botox?
Botox is the trade name of Botulinum Toxin Type A, a purified toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. In large amounts, this toxin blocks the nerve impulses to muscles, causing a form of paralysis called botulism.

Botox, in extremely small doses, is injected directly into the specific muscles that cause frown lines. These isolated muscles are paralysed by the Botox, and can no longer contract. The action of frowning is stopped, and frown lines diminish.

Frown Lines
Frown lines are caused by the bunching of skin from facial muscle contraction. When we frown, the skin between our eyebrows is gathered into a fold which eventually causes a chronic furrow. This gives our face a frustrated, discouraged, angry look which is distracting to others and a bother to ourselves.

Now you can soften and reduce these frown lines without surgery and without scars, by a simple treatment with Botox.

Where do you put the Botox?
The frown line between the eyebrows is caused by the action of a muscle called the corrugator. You can feel this muscle as a thickening just below the inside of your eyebrows, when you purposefully make yourself frown.

Injecting Botox directly into the corrugator muscle stops your ability to draw your eyebrows together when you frown. Once the muscle is paralysed, it cannot contract, and the frown line gradually fades away.

When does Botox start to work and how long does it last?
The results of Botox treatment start to appear in three to ten days. The treated muscles will gradually regain their their muscles over three to five months. When the frown line starts to reappear, a simple repeat treatment is all that is necessary to maintain the desired results.

What are the uses of Botox?
Botox has also been shown to soften and reduce crows feet and forehead wrinkles. Botox can reduce the appearance of some lines that are caused by other hyperfunctional facial muscles such as nose creases, neck lines and neck bands.

Botox can dramatically reduce excessive sweating from the armpits.
