Botox is a safe and effective way of reducing lines and wrinkles, and the specialists at Dermadoc Cosmetic Clinic have plenty of experience administering this treatment. Botox is particularly appropriate for removing the most common signs of ageing, including crow’s feet around the eyes, frown lines around the mouth, and lines across the forehead or between the eyebrows. The treatment can also help to tighten and improve the tone of the skin and to lift the face. It is often used around the eyebrows or along the jaw line to produce this lifting effect.
The treatment works by stopping nerve impulses from stimulating the muscles that lie under the skin. In the absence of this stimulation, the muscles relax, releasing the tension that creates lines and furrows. The skin is smoothed out, looking younger and much less lined. Experienced cosmetic specialists like those at the Dermadoc Cosmetic Clinic can even target particular problem areas to eradicate specific wrinkles or to achieve the desired shaping or lifting effect.
The Botox treatment at Dermadoc Cosmetic Clinic involves the injection of a pure protein, Botox, which is derived from a bacterial toxin. This protein has long been used in medicine to treat conditions such as muscle spasms, as well as in cosmetic procedures. During the treatment, it is injected into the chosen areas using a fine needle. The procedure should not take long and does not require any downtime to recover. The effects should start to become visible within about 5-7 days of the procedure, and will be complete after about a fortnight, at which point patients are invited back for a review at the Dermadoc clinic. The skin will look much smoother and the targeted wrinkles will have been eliminated. The effect will wear off eventually, but it could last for up to 6 months.
