Botox is injected into your facial muscles which will affect and block the transmitters between the motor nerves that innervate your muscles. Once the motor nerve ends, the muscles are no longer able to contract which stops wrinkles from forming.
You will notice that your skin will start to smooth out three to ten days after your treatment. The effects should last about three to four months. At that time, we can perform another Botox injection.
Botox is typically injected around the forehead, between the eyes, and around the corners of the eyes. It can also be used to complement esthetic dentistry cases. It is a minimally invasive alternative to a surgical treatment.
Derma fillers, such as hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite, are typically used to add volume to the face. As people age, the collagen is lost in areas around the face and lines start to deepen. Dermal fillers are injected right under the skin to plump up these areas.
