Botox

What is Botox?

Botox is a cosmetic and medical treatment that uses botulinum toxin to temporarily relax muscles. It is commonly used for reducing wrinkles and treating medical conditions like migraines and excessive sweating.

Uses of Botox

Cosmetic Uses:

• Reduces wrinkles and fine lines (forehead, crow’s feet, frown lines)
• Lifts eyebrows and jawline
• Softens chin dimples
• Slows down signs of aging

Medical Uses:

• Treats chronic migraines
• Reduces excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
• Relieves muscle spasms
• Helps with TMJ pain and teeth grinding
• Treats overactive bladder

How Botox Works

Botox blocks nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. This smooths wrinkles and reduces tension in overactive muscles.

Prevention & Aftercare for Botox

Before Treatment:

• Avoid blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen) to reduce bruising
• Stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet

After Treatment:

• Avoid touching or massaging the area for 24 hours
• Stay upright for 4-6 hours
• Avoid intense workouts, alcohol, and sun exposure for a day

How Long Does Botox Last?

Botox results typically last 3 to 6 months. Regular treatments help maintain a youthful, refreshed appearance.
