BOTOX - Cosmetic Procedures

Non-surgical facial rejuvenation involves a number of minimally invasive procedures that help to smooth out the wrinkles, improve skin texture, and restore the contour of your face. It is an effective way to return your youthful appearance without surgical incisions and with minimal downtime. Minimally invasive facial rejuvenation usually involves treating muscles of facial expression with Botox.

Botox is primarily used to improve small wrinkles in the corner of the eyes, and lines across the forehead that result from overactive facial mimetic muscles. It is made of a naturally occurring toxin that is diluted to a safe concentration. A small amount of Botox is injected into the area of the lines or wrinkles. Botox works by weakening the overactive facial muscles and thus eliminates the cause of the wrinkles. The effect of the injection is seen after a few days and lasts for about three to four months. Maintenance treatment is required about every six months to achieve a lasting rejuvenation.

BOTOX - Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, is caused by stimulation of the sweat glands by nerve endings which descend from higher centers in the brain. These nerves respond to emotional stresses, such as intimate social situations, public speaking, physical stresses, and increased body temperature that comes with exercise or hot, humid weather. Most people with excessive sweating are bothered primarily when they are emotionally stressed, physically active, or over-heated. Botox can prevent sweating for months by blocking the release of the neurotransmitter, i.e., acetylcholine, from the nerve endings, that causes the glands to produce sweat.
