What Is BOTOX®?

BOTOX® is made up of the bacteria, “botulinum toxin” in diluted form. This is injected into overworked muscles that have created lines and wrinkles to help them relax. This reduces the appearance of signs of aging. Optimal results usually take between five and ten days to show and last anywhere between three and six months.

Who Is a Good Candidate for BOTOX®?

Patients who are pregnant, have certain neuromuscular diseases, have skin disorders, or have deep facial scars, are likely not good candidates for BOTOX®. This is why it’s so crucial that you discuss your medical history with your dentist. Ideal candidates for BOTOX® are usually in their late 20s or older and are looking to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. BOTOX® is able to address the following imperfections:

  • Crow’s feet
  • Muscle spasms
  • Lines between the eyebrows
  • Horizontal lines on the forehead
  • Smoker’s lines around the lips
  • Lines at the corners of the mouth
