Common Treatment Areas

Botox is commonly used for forehead lines produced by raising the brows glabellar frown lines between the eyebrows crow feet at the outer corners of the eyes when smiling and selected neck bands caused by platysma muscle activity By relaxing these muscles the overlying skin appears smoother and new expression lines can be prevented or slowed in formation

How Botox Works

Botox works at the neuromuscular junction where nerve endings meet muscle fibres It blocks the release of the chemical messenger acetylcholine which normally tells the muscle to contract leading to a temporary and reversible relaxation of targeted muscles The effect begins within a few days reaches full strength by about one to two weeks and gradually wears off over three to six months as new nerve endings form

Treatment Procedure

During treatment the doctor maps out specific injection points based on individual muscle activity Very small amounts of Botox are injected with a fine needle into selected muscles The session typically takes about fifteen minutes and does not require anaesthesia beyond occasional application of a numbing cream or ice pack Patients can usually return to normal activities immediately but are advised to avoid vigorous exercise lying flat or massaging the treated areas for several hours

Safety and Side Effects

When used in recommended doses by trained medical professionals Botox has a good safety profile Possible temporary side effects include mild redness bruising or tenderness at injection sites and occasionally a short lived headache Rarely unwanted spread of the toxin can cause transient eyelid droop or eyebrow asymmetry emphasising the importance of correct dosing and injection technique
