Botox is a specific brand of neurotoxin that weakens the muscles it is injected into. This prevents the targeted muscles from contracting and forming wrinkles. Consistently using Botox can help prevent the deepening of existing lines and wrinkles and the formation of new wrinkles.

Botox can be used to treat the lines between the eyebrows, forehead lines, smile lines, and crow’s feet. It can also be used to treat TMJ, migraines, and hyperhidrosis.

The number of units needed varies based on severity of wrinkles, size of the treatment area, and your personal metabolism. The average person uses between 20 and 45 units of Botox in one treatment.

Botox takes anywhere from 7 to 14 days to fully take effect, and results last on average between 3 and 4 months.
