    BOTOX® Injections

    BOTOX® is the brand name for Allergan’s botulinum toxin. Botulinum toxin has been used for medical purposes since the 70’s, when it was first used to treat treat strabismus, a problem with the eye muscle.

    It now treats a variety of medical conditions – including cerebral palsy, stroke and Bell’s Palsy.

    There are over 800 known applications for BOTOX now, but the best known use is to tackle the signs of ageing.

    In aesthetic treatments, BOTOX® is used to smooth out lines and wrinkles. It works by relaxing the fine dynamic facial muscles which form wrinkles at the skin’s surface, allowing the skin to drape more evenly and smoothly. The treatment is very effective and in the right hands, very safe.

    The most common treatment areas for BOTOX injections are:

    • forehead – horizontal lines across the forehead
    • frown lines – vertical ‘glabellar’ lines between the eyebrows
    • crow’s feet – ageing lines around the eyes
