Botox is a medical spa treatment used to reduce wrinkles and make your overall facial appearance look much younger. These injections are made up of very small amounts of a toxin called the bacterium clostridium botulinum that cause your facial muscles to relax. This relaxation of the face allows your wrinkles to smooth out around the forehead, eyes, chin, neck, and mouth. Additional benefits of botox include: • Can improve health conditions such as TMJ, migraines, and muscle pain • Enhances your beauty • Offers immediate results • Specially customized to your desired results • Long-lasting results for up to a year • Less expensive than other anti-aging treatments • Minimally invasive treatment • Quick treatment • No recovery time During your botox treatment, you can first expect your physician to put a topical anesthetic on the injection sites so that you feel no discomfort at all during your appointment. Your botox expert will then use a very small needle to inject tiny amounts of botox into your skin. Once the treatment is done, you can return to your normal routine. We recommend you avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging the treated area for 24 to 48 hours after. This will prevent Botox from spreading to other areas of the face. We also advise you to avoid heavy exercise, saunas, and facials four hours after your injections. You will begin to see results from your Botox treatment at the Wellness Center of Greater Cleveland within only a few short days!
