Botox is an injectable treatment that will non-surgically improve signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles. As one of the most well-known injectables, you can trust that Botox will give you beautiful results and an enhanced, natural appearance.
What is Botox?
Botox is a botulinum toxin injectable used to treat fine lines and wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, which are the small lines around the outer corners of your eyes. This injectable also smooths horizontal forehead lines and vertical frown lines between the eyebrows. Botox injections also treat lines and reduce wrinkles around the lips, chin, and neck. It is even used to relieve pain from TMJ (a condition that causes your jaw to lock in place), improve the appearance of a gummy smile, treat chronic migraines, and prevent excess sweating.
How Does Botox Work?
The botulinum toxin in Botox temporarily blocks nerve signals to the muscle, prohibiting it from contracting. These contractions create wrinkles, and by relaxing the muscles, Botox can smooth wrinkles for a more youthful-looking appearance. The number of Botox injections you will need depends on the severity of your wrinkles or the concern you are hoping to treat, as well as the size of the injection site.

Am I a Candidate for Botox?
Botox is effective for men and women between the ages of 18-65, but most clients start receiving Botox injections once signs of aging begin. If you are hoping to smooth fine lines, refresh your natural beauty, and restore a more youthful appearance, you may be a great candidate for Botox! The only people who may not be candidates for Botox in Lakeland, TN, are those who have allergic reactions to botulinum toxin or other Botox ingredients. You should also tell your doctor if you currently take blood thinners or have muscle or nerve conditions. Clients who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding or those with an active skin infection should wait to receive treatment. Some signs of aging may also be better treated with other products, so schedule a consultation to determine the best treatment plan for you and your specific goals.
What to Expect
Other than a slight pinch from the needle that administers the Botox, this is a relatively painless procedure that takes less than half an hour. During treatment, your skin will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream can be applied at your request. Your injector will skillfully inject the Botulinum toxin treatment into the specified areas. Treatment is typically quick, taking about 15-20 minutes.
