Botox, Botulin Toxin

Botulin Toxin, normally known under its comercial name as Botox, is here to solve the problem of the fine facial lines that start appearing and becoming more aparent as we become older. This is a simple procedure that is done at the doctor’s office and takes about 15 minutes. No special preparation is needed only the patient’s wish to look better. It’s used specially for the forehead, eyebrows, periorbital (around the eyes) and nose areas. Its effects are noticeable after the third day of application and last for four to five months, after which the area in function of movement recovers its previous state. The secondary effects of the Botox procedure are extremely rare. It can be used at an early age as it helps to delay aging.
