If you've found that frown lines, forehead creases, or other facial- expression lines are preventing you from looking as good as you feel, cosmetic denervation with BOTOX® (Botulinum Toxin Type A) injections may be a good option for you.

BOTOX® is a purified therapeutic agent that removes lines and creases in the upper part of the face by inactivating special muscles that pull on the skin. It works to eliminate the face's dynamic wrinkles - those wrinkles that are caused not by aging or sun exposure, but by years of facial movement, such as laughing, smiling, or frowning. Treatment with Botox causes the underlying muscles to relax, giving the skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance.

BOTOX® injections are quick and associated with very little pain. Often, patients remark that the ultra-thin needle that is used makes the injections far less uncomfortable than expected. The simple office procedure normally takes 10 minutes or less and the actual injections take only seconds. No anesthesia is required.
