A Non-surgical Treatment for Wrinkles, Lines, and Crows’ Feet
BOTOX® Cosmetic Mexico
Frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkling are all common complaints amongst our patients. Due to aging, sun exposure, and daily stress, these imperfections can be treated surgically – with a facelift – or non-surgically with injectable treatments. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, BOTOX® Cosmetic is one of the most popular injectable products available today. It temporarily freezes muscles beneath the skin that contract and cause wrinkles and lines. BOTOX® injections are frequently administered at Perfection Makeover and Laser Center’s medical spa. If you would like to set up an appointment for BOTOX® Cosmetic injections at our Cancun, Mexico facility, please contact a friendly member of our team.
About BOTOX® Cosmetic
Wrinkles and lines can be caused by the repeated contraction of facial muscles. BOTOX® Cosmetic is a neurotoxin that prevents muscles from contracting; it does this by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle activity. The physician injects BOTOX® Cosmetic directly into the muscles that cause frown lines between the brows. The physician first examines the patient’s ability to move certain muscles in the brow area. The location, size, and use of muscles that create a furrowed brow, lines, and wrinkles vary significantly among individuals. Then, the doctor strategically places the injections to produce the best possible facial expressions. Anesthesia is not required for treatment, as the injections do not cause pain. However, the physician may opt to use a numbing cream or a cold pack to ease any patient discomfort.
There is no recovery or downtime associated with BOTOX® injectable treatment. The patient can immediately return to his or her regular lifestyle, and will notice a marked improvement in the appearance of lines and wrinkles within a few days. The results of BOTOX® Cosmetic last between three to six months. Treatment can be repeated to maintain the effects over a longer period of time.
Injections of BOTOX® Cosmetic can be coupled with other treatments at our Mexico medical spa for the ultimate rejuvenating effects. If you are interested in learning more about dermal fillers, laser skin resurfacing, or microdermabrasion for example, contact our practice today.
