San Diego Botox Injections
You may be a candidate for Botox® Cosmetic if you would like to treat facial wrinkles in the forehead, between the eyes and in the "crow's feet" areas. Botox® Cosmetic works by weakening the muscles that cause facial expressions. Once the treated muscles are weakened, the pull of the muscle relaxes and theoverlaying skin flattens. Botox® Cosmetic is utilized to enhance your appearance, and lessen the wrinkles in the upper part of your face.
How Botox® is Injected
Botox® Cosmetic can be administered in the office by appointment. Botox® Cosmeticis freshly prepared on the day of injection. Once prepared themedication needs to be used within 12 hours as the potency diminishes with time. Small amounts of Botox® Cosmetic are injected into the facial muscles using a very tiny needle.
