Muscles around the eyes and forehead will over time create wrinkles, lines and furrows in the skin. By weakening and relaxing these contracting muscles, frown lines, worry lines, crows feet, laugh lines and wrinkles can be erased. Botox is a purified form of the toxin that blocks nerve impulses to muscles. When used in small doses in the muscles that cause wrinkles of the forehead and face, existing creases fade and the formation of new wrinkles will be prevented.

Botox is injected into the muscles of the face using tiny needles. The procedure takes minutes to perform and takes just days to become apparent. You may return to work or other activities immediately after treatment. Botox treatments last approximately three to six months.
