What is Botox?
Neurotoxins, commonly referred to as Botox, are derived from the neurotoxic protein botulinum toxin, it is a potent cosmetic solution when administered by skilled aesthetic injectors. It works by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Common treatment areas include horizontal forehead creases, crow’s feet around the eyes, and lines between the eyebrows. It can also be used preventively to slow down the formation of new lines or permanent wrinkles.
Our nurse injectors advocate for a conservative approach to enhance your skin and features. Thus, giving subtle and natural results.
