Botox

You may be unable to avoid getting older, but you don't have to suffer from wrinkles and lines. Botox injections offer the perfect way to enjoy smoother skin without plastic surgery. Woodside, NY dentist, Dr. Hemali Ajmera, explains how Botox treatment can help you look younger.

Botox Reaches The Source of Wrinkles

Wrinkles and fine lines often develop in areas where you frequently frown or contract your facial muscles. Botox injections prevent signals from traveling from your nerves to muscles, stopping contractions and allowing your muscles to relax. Once the muscles are relaxed, the skin over them becomes smoother. Botox is made from the Clostridium botulinum bacteria and is purified to ensure your safety.

Dentists Now Offer Botox

It might seem a little unusual to receive Botox treatments at your Stow dentist's office, but these professionals are uniquely qualified to provide the treatments. Dentists receive specialized training that allows them to perform a variety of treatments and procedures on the maxillofacial area, the area that extends from the chin to the forehead. Thanks to their extensive experience and skill in treating facial areas, they can precisely target the muscles that cause wrinkles.

Botox Offers a Simple Solution to Many Cosmetic Issues

Botox injections are often used to treat:

  • Crow's feet
  • Vertical lines between the eyes
  • Forehead lines and furrows
  • Wrinkles around the mouth

Botox Treatment is Quick and Easy

Botox injections are virtually painless because your dentist uses a very small needle to inject the liquid into your muscles. You may feel a slight pricking or stinging sensation during the injection, but you won't experience redness or inflammation in most cases. Some softening of your lines and wrinkles may be noticeable within 72 hours after you receive Botox injections, although it may take approximately one week for Botox to take effect completely. Maintaining your appearance is as easy as returning for additional injections every three to six months.
