Botox is a prescription medication that is used to smooth wrinkles and fine lines. Botox is injected into the muscles that cause wrinkles using an ultra-thin needle. You will notice a significant change in the look of frown lines after just one treatment.
So, if you're ready to say goodbye to wrinkles, contact our Park Ridge dentist office for a free consultation. It will just take you 10-15 minutes to complete the consultation. During the appointment, we will examine your situation, discuss your wrinkle-reduction goals, review your medical history, and provide treatment recommendations and pricing. You can then decide whether to have the procedure done that day or come back in a few days.
Botox takes roughly 30 minutes to administer and can be used to treat a variety of issues, such as:
Forehead – The horizontal lines that are present on the forehead between the eyebrows and the hairline.
Crow’s feet – This area is lateral to both eyes and wrinkles more when you smile or squint.
Marionette – The vertical lines around the mouth also called Smoker’s lines
Eyebrows – The area between the eyebrows. This area has vertical lines/wrinkles that appear more while frowning
Jaw muscles for relief of TMJ. In extreme TMJ cases where nightguards have not completely alleviated the pain, Botox can be used to reduce the clenching force without completely paralyzing the muscle.
Who can have Botox?
Botox is ideal for both adult females and males. Botox can be combined with other dermal fillers, such as Juvederm, that our office offers. For more information on this procedure, go to the fillers page or ask your doctor about it at your next appointment.
Botox: What Are the Advantages?
You appear to be younger, more energised, and more rested. Botox is most commonly used to repair wrinkles cosmetically, but it can also be used to treat TMJ condition and reduce sweating. Botox works by relaxing the facial muscles that cause wrinkles. Wrinkles and lines vanish or become less noticeable as the muscles relax.
