Botox

Botox® is a non-surgical injection that temporarily reduces or eliminates your frown lines, creases, crow’s feet, and thick bands in the neck. The protein blocks the nerve impulses, temporarily weakening the muscles that cause wrinkles while giving your skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance.

Almost 3.3 million Botox procedures were performed in 2005. In clinical trials, nearly 90 percent of men and women surveyed rated the improvement in the appearance of frown lines between their brows as moderate to better one month after treatment.

In addition, newer techniques allow softening of the lines around your lips. Studies also have suggested that Botox is effective in relieving migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and muscle spasms in the neck and eyes.

Each treatment typically lasts up to 3 months and can be repeated as long as your condition responds to Botox.
