What is Botox?
BOTOX® is the commercial tradename for Botulinum Toxin Type A.
Botulinum Toxin is derived from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum.
When injected into muscles, Botulinum Toxin has a local effect. It blocks transmission between the nerve endings and muscle fibres around the injection site to cause weakness of the nearby muscle.
What is Botox used for?
Botox is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment for moderate to severe frown lines. It is typically used in people aged 18 to 65.
Botox works by blocking nerve transmission to temporarily reduce the contractions of the facial muscles that cause frown lines.
It has been proven to be a safe and effective treatment for wrinkles, and botox injections are becoming increasingly popular.
The Botox injection procedure
We will administer several tiny injections of botox directly into the muscles of your face. Prior to injection, we will determine where to administer them by examining your ability to move certain muscles in the required area.
The entire botox injection procedure takes approximately 10 minutes and does not require anaesthesia. Discomfort is usually minimal and brief.
Who can have Botox treatment?
Your dentist will decide if you can have cosmetic treatment with botox.
Before starting treatment, tell your dentist if you have any disorders that affect your nerves and muscles, if you are breastfeeding, or if you are planning to become pregnant soon.
After the injection
You should notice an improvement in your frown lines within 3 to 7 days, the effects of which can last up to 4 months. However, results may vary.
After a period of time, your frown lines will begin to reappear as the effects of botox wear off.
You can receive botox injections every 4 months.
With repeated treatments, thinning of the muscles occurs, which produces longer lasting results.
