Botox Injections
what it is & how it works
Botox injections are a popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. They contain botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that works by blocking nerve signals to targeted muscles. This prevents muscle contractions, which are responsible for dynamic wrinkles (caused by repeated facial movements like frowning or squinting).
Results typically appear within 3 to 5 days and reach full effect in about two weeks. The effects last 3 to 6 months, after which muscles gradually regain movement, and wrinkles may start to reappear. Regular treatments help maintain a smoother, more refreshed look.
