Botox

Botox, short for Botulinum Toxin, is a cosmetic procedure commonly used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Administered through injections, Botox works by temporarily paralysing or relaxing the muscles that cause facial expressions, particularly in areas prone to wrinkling, such as the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes.

The treatment is quick, minimally invasive, and provides a smoother, more youthful appearance. Results typically become noticeable within a few days and can last for several months, making Botox a popular choice for addressing common signs of ageing.

What Are The Treatment Areas?

  • Relaxes the glabella complex, frontalis and orbicularis oculi muscles. By temporarily relaxing or paralyzing these muscles, Botox helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by repetitive facial expressions.

  • Relaxing overactive nasalis muscle to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles on either side of the nose.

  • Targeting the mentalist muscle, reducing the appearance of dimples, wrinkles, or "orange peel" texture on the chin.This provides a smoother and more refined appearance.

  • involves injecting Botulinum Toxin into the muscles around the eyes and lower eyelids. This procedure aims to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and puffiness in the under-eye area. By relaxing the muscles and softening dynamic lines caused by facial expressions, Under-eye Botox can create a more refreshed and youthful look.

  • Masseter Botox involves injecting Botulinum Toxin into the masseter muscles, which are the jaw muscles responsible for chewing and clenching. This procedure is designed to relax and reduce the size of these muscles, providing a slimming effect to the lower face and jawline.

    The treatment can address issues such as teeth grinding (bruxism) and jaw tension. Results typically become noticeable within a few weeks and can last for several months.

  • A Botox lip flip is a procedure where Botulinum Toxin is strategically injected into the muscles around the upper lip. Unlike traditional lip fillers, which add volume to the lips, a lip flip with Botox relaxes the muscles, causing the upper lip to gently flip upward. This creates the appearance of fuller and more defined lips without the use of dermal fillers.

  • Botox for a downturned smile involves injecting Botulinum Toxin into specific muscles around the mouth, typically the depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscles. These muscles pull the corners of the mouth downward, contributing to a persistent frowning or sad expression. By selectively relaxing these muscles, Botox can help lift the corners of the mouth, reducing the appearance of a downturned smile and creating a more positive and uplifted facial expression

  • Botox for a gummy smile involves injecting Botulinum Toxin into the muscles responsible for lifting the upper lip. In individuals with a gummy smile, excessive gum tissue is exposed when smiling. By selectively relaxing the muscles that elevate the upper lip, Botox can reduce the visibility of the gums and create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.

  • Botox for excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, involves injecting Botulinum Toxin into the sweat glands to temporarily block nerve signals that stimulate sweat production. This minimally invasive procedure is particularly effective in areas prone to excessive sweating, such as the underarms, palms, and soles of the feet. By interrupting the communication between nerves and sweat glands, Botox helps reduce perspiration and provides relief from hyperhidrosis.
