What is BOTOX?
Botox is derived from a specific protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When a small amount is injected into a muscle, it temporarily prevents that muscle from contracting. This means that the facial movements that lead to lasting wrinkles are prevented, leading to a smoother and younger appearance.
Botox can also help overactive jaw muscles relax, which can put a stop to nighttime teeth grinding as well as remove the root cause of headaches and even migraines.
Who is a Good Candidate for BOTOX?
Botox is well suited for a wide variety of patients thanks to its many applications. It can be used to reduce the appearance of fine lines on the forehead and around the eyes, nose, lips, and chin. A quick 10-minute treatment is all that’s needed to help some wrinkles disappear while stopping others from developing in the first place.
We also often recommend it for patients with bruxism (unconscious teeth grinding) or who experience headaches/migraines multiple times a month. It’s able to stop the discomfort relatively fast, which then gives our team time to apply a more long-term solution while the patient is comfortable.
