How can BOTOX® enhance your life
There’s a reason that BOTOX® has worldwide acceptance in the realm of aesthetics. Since its introduction to the market 14 years ago, BOTOX® has been revolutionizing the anti-ageing industry. BOTOX® not only reverses the first signs of ageing, it allows you to express yourself naturally without the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. And you’ll start to see a more refreshed, youthful appearance within 24 hours that lasts for about 4 months!
Is is right for You
Are you a good candidate for a BOTOX®
BOTOX® is right for you if you are 18 years of age and older in good health. Pregnant women and nursing mothers as well as clients with severe or life-threatening neuromuscular conditions and egg allergies are not candidates for these procedures.
What can you expect on BOTOX®
Procedure
BOTOX® can be administered in a clinical setting without anesthesia as it is virtually painless. The procedure takes approximately 10-15 minutes. While the full effects of the BOTOX® will be visible within 2-week, noticeable changes will appear within 24 hours after injection.
Recovery
Clients may experience swelling and bruising immediately after a Botox procedure. Headaches and numbness may also occur, and the injections may also affect the muscles surrounding the area of injection. These side effects are normal and expected. Your doctor may recommend pain medication for the discomfort, but ice packs are routinely recommended to reduce swelling.
The effects of BOTOX® will last about 4 months. After this, the muscles will slowly regain activity which will require further treatment. However, wrinkles and fine lines will appear less severe over time and with repeated injections.
