Why is botox used?
BOTOX is used by patients who feel they have exceptionally prominent or too many wrinkles on their face. Although there are other uses for Botox (such as limiting sweating in the underarms when injected), wrinkle recovery is the main application for Botox. Botox itself is the brand name for a purified protein that is injected in small amounts to muscles of the face. Once injected, the protein relaxes the muscles of the face that create the wrinkles. While completely removing wrinkles is not feasible, Botox is a great method for achieving the temporary appearance of less wrinkles. Most patients visit their Doctor around every 8 months.
