BOTOX® Cosmetic

BOTOX® Cosmetic is the trade name of Botulinum Type A, a powerful toxin protein produced by Clostridium botulinum bacterium. When injected in tiny amounts directly into a specific muscle, Botox will relax it. Forehead lines as well as other facial wrinkles and fine lines can be caused by certain facial muscles. By using Botox to treat these thin muscles, the facial wrinkles can be temporarily reduced.

BOTOX® is the only FDA-approved treatment for the following three indications:
  • Moderate to severe forehead lines
  • Lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet)
  • Glabellar lines in adults (frown lines)
Depending on the number of areas the patient wishes to treat, the treatment is as quick as 10 minutes with little to no downtime. Results can be noticed within 24-48 hours and last up to 4 months.

Botox® injections are very effective at softening the lines that come from facial movements like frowning and squinting, tightening the facial skin. This treatment allows patients to look like themselves, but with less noticeable facial lines.

If you would like to subtly treat facial lines, contact our office at 305-672-1233 to make a BOTOX® appointment with Dr. Mandy.
