Patients who have developed lines between your eyes that make them look sad or angry can often benefit from BOTOX® injections. This injectable can also address other signs of aging such as crow’s feet, and brow wrinkles. Depending on genetics, these lines can appear on your face as early as your late twenties, and as late as your early forties.
Rumors abound about potential safety and aesthetic issues with BOTOX® Cosmetic. Some people are concerned that once BOTOX® Cosmetic is administered, discontinuing injections will result in rapid aging. Others are concerned with the safety of the solution used in BOTOX® Cosmetic. Both of these issues have been addressed and proven false in several independent and government studies.
In a recent survey of BOTOX® Cosmetic patients, it was found that 97 percent of those surveyed were “extremely happy” with the results of their procedure. In over 20 years of use, there has never been a recorded instance of botulism or paralysis from BOTOX® Cosmetic, and the FDA considers BOTOX® Cosmetic to be a safe, effective way of reducing wrinkles and restoring a youthful appearance.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a prescription medication that is injected into the muscles of your face. The solution in BOTOX® Cosmetic causes these muscles to relax resulting in a smooth, wrinkle-free appearance. BOTOX® Cosmetic can be used to reduce or eliminate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles including:
- Crow’s feet
- Brow wrinkles
- Forehead wrinkles
By significantly reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles and creases, BOTOX® Cosmetic can instantly produce a more youthful, attractive appearance. The procedure takes minutes, and results are instant, making BOTOX® Cosmetic a popular option for many patients in the Detroit area.
