Botox Cosmetic

BOTOX Cosmetic is an FDA-approved injectable medication used to relax and temporarily reduce the muscles which create wrinkles. We use Botox to treat moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows and on the forehead. Treatment is safe and effective and can be performed in as little as ten minutes. It is minimally invasive and non-surgical. There is no down time and only minimal discomfort from the injections. If needed, we do offer the option of a topical anesthetic to further reduce any discomfort. Results can be seen in as soon as three days and will last three to six months. If you are between 18 and 65 BOTOX Cosmetic may be right for you. Learn more by scheduling a consult with us.

What BOTOX Cosmetic isn't.
Botox Cosmetic is not magic. It's medicine, the result of years of careful research and testing. Allergan's Botox product is the only one of its type with over 10 years of success in treating patients with a variety of conditions. With dosing specific to treat frown lines, this same product is now available as Botox Cosmetic.

Botox® Cosmetic will not radically change your appearance or make you look "like you've had work done." It will not make you look twenty years younger Because it's highly localized and administered intramuscularly its effects are usually confined to the region of injection, and Botox® Cosmetic does not remain in your body indefinitely.

Is BOTOX Cosmetic right for you?
If doing all you can to look your best is important to you, Botox® Cosmetic may be for you. If reducing those tough lines between your brows would make you feel more approachable, Botox® Cosmetic may be for you. Thousands of appearance-conscious women and men have already discovered the benefits of Botox® Cosmetic. Not just models and movie stars, but ordinary people - teachers, mothers, and business people from all walks of life. It's not magic, it's Botox.
