Let Those Frown Lines Disappear With Botox® in Michigan

As you age, you start to notice some changes — a deepening of the creases in your brow and forehead, and crinkling around your eyes.

Botox® can help reverse the signs of aging by smoothing and erasing frown lines, crow’s feet, and other facial wrinkles. You will see a firm, more youthful look, while still maintaining your natural facial expressions.

What Is Botox®?

Botox® is a safe muscle-relaxing agent derived from Botulinum. Approved by the Food and Drug Administration, it has many different applications, though it is known best for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Botox® is also used to treat migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and neurological and ophthalmological disorders.

How Does Botox® Work and What Do I Do To Prepare?

There is no preparation for Botox®, other than identifying the areas to be treated. During a pre-procedure consultation, your provider will ask you to smile or frown to determine the natural movement of your face. A topical anesthetic may be applied; however, most people do not require this because there is little to no discomfort during the procedure.

Using a microneedle, an extremely small amount of Botox® is injected into the designated areas, with each area taking about five minutes to treat. There is virtually no after-care required with Botox®. Any minor bruising can be covered with makeup. You can drive yourself to and from your appointment, as well as returning immediately to your regular schedule and activities.

While you may experience irritation at the injection site or a temporary headache, other side effects are quite rare. Possible side effects will depend on the muscles being treated. In very rare cases, individuals have reported a temporary weakness in the injection area, drooping of the eyelid, or asymmetry of facial expressions. However, because Botox® is temporary, any side effects will also be temporary.
