What Happens When Someone Gets A Botox Injection?

What is Botox Cosmetic?

Botox is a toxin produced by a bacteria called Botulinum. Botox blocks the chemicals that cause muscles to contract, thereby relaxing them.

Botox has been used for over 15 years to treat a variety of medical conditions.

The wrinkles caused by overactive facial muscles and repetitive facial expressions are called dynamic wrinkles.

How it is Applied?

One ten-minute treatment - a few tiny injections - relaxes the muscles that cause those deep, persistent lines to form and keeps them relaxed up to four months.

When will you start to see results & How long does it last?

You should begin to see a significant improvement within a few days.

Botox Cosmetic lasts up to four months.

Is Botox Cosmetic Affordable?

When considering your facial aesthetic options, Botox Cosmetic is very affordable. Like other appearance-related investments, such as hair coloring and cuts, teeth whitening, and chemical peels, the cost must be weighed relative to your expectations.

Are there any side effects?

It's unlikely that you'll develop any significant side effects, but you may notice slight bruising where Botox Cosmetic was injected.

This is only temporary and can be covered by makeup. Rare side effects include headache, respiratory infection, flu-like symptoms, temporary eyelid droop, and nausea.
