Botox

Botox, short for botulinum toxin, is a popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions like frowning, squinting, or smiling. By temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, Botox smooths the skin's surface, creating a more relaxed and youthful appearance. It effectively targets areas such as forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines between the eyebrows. The procedure involves small injections into the affected muscles, with patients typically seeing results within 3 to 7 days and full effects in about two weeks. The results generally last 3 to 6 months, depending on individual factors like metabolism and lifestyle.
