Is Botox Cosmetic right for you?

BOTOX Cosmetic is a simple treatment performed by our physicians that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows for people aged 18 to 65 years old.

One treatment consists of a few tiny injections and takes approximately 10 minutes. Within a few days, you will notice an improvement that can last up to 4 months. However, results may vary and after the initial 4 months, you may need to return for a follow-up treatment.

BOTOX Cosmetic works by blocking nerve impulses and reducing the movement of the muscles that cause frown lines. With less movement, the skin can smooth out and the frown lines begin to fade.

Procedure Benefits

  • Botox produces quick results
  • Botox is a temporary treatment. Your skin is not altered in any way and will return to its original shape over time.
  • Providing effective treatment for wrinkles
  • Fast procedure—typically lasting only 5-10 minutes
