What is Botox?

Botox® Cosmetic is a simple, nonsurgical procedure that smooths wrinkles and the deep, persistent lines that develop over time. 

A neuromodulator that utilizes a natural and purified protein, Botox is administered at very low doses to reduce the contractions of the muscles that cause the persistent frown lines that develop over time.

How can Botox benefit me?

Botox Cosmetic can correct a number of common aging symptoms, including:

  • Forehead lines
  • Glabella (frown lines)
  • Lateral Orbital lines (crow’s feet)
  • Bunny lines (diagonal and vertical wrinkles that appear on the bridge of the nose)
  • Smile lines (around the mouth)
  • Perioral lines (smoker’s lines)
  • Marionette lines (melomental folds)
  • Gummy smiles
  • Jowl Reduction
  • Dimpled chins
  • Vertical platysma bands of the neck (muscle ridges)
  • Drooping eyebrows
  • Facial asymmetry

Botox can also prevent new wrinkles from developing or limit current wrinkles from becoming more severe.

Do you offer any alternatives to Botox?

Xeomin® is FDA-approved to treat frown lines (glabellar lines) and can also erase crow's feet that form at the outer corners of the eyes.

Like Botox, Jeuveau uses purified botulinum toxin to relax the small muscle groups that cause dynamic wrinkles temporarily. 

When these compounds are injected into your muscle tissue, they block nerve signals so the brain can no longer instruct treated muscles to move. These compounds stop your nerves from telling your facial muscles to flex, temporarily smoothing moderate to severe lines between the brows. With Jeuveau, you can achieve natural-looking results in less than 10 minutes.

The Core Primary Care team can also recommend dermal fillers and other injectables to customize your treatment regimen.

What can I expect from Botox? 

While results are significant, Botox will not radically change your facial appearance. Your muscles are simply relaxed, so you can still smile, frown, or look surprised without wrinkles and creases. 

Injecting Botox into targeted facial muscles can minimize even the most stubborn of wrinkles, leaving the skin looking smoother and more youthful.
