Botox® Cosmetic in Barbados
Cosmetic Botox® is used to erase away years from your facial expression by eliminating or softening persistent lines and wrinkles on the face in a simple and non-surgical way.
Mainly on the forehead, around the eyes (Crow's feet, Laugh lines, Bunny nose) and around the mouth and lips. The skin on the surface is attached to the muscles underneath. Lines are formed by the repeated action of the muscles contracting under the skin during different facial expressions. Botox® therapy works best for those dynamic lines that are directly associated with muscle movement.
Botox Cosmetic
Botox has been used safely for over 20 years by medical practitioners. Cosmetic Botox only accounts for a small portion of total Botox usage, the rest is used medically. It is used to treat tension headaches, TMJ dysfunction and migraines. It is also used in the treatment of excessive sweating of the under-arms and palms. Botox is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium Botulinum Bacterium. Botox works by reducing the activity of the muscles that cause facial wrinkles. Botox Cosmetic is a simple, non-invasive treatment that will smooth moderate to severe frown lines and facial wrinkles. Botox is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Botox is a registered trademark of Allergan, Inc.
Your Botox Treatment
A Botox treatment typically takes 10 to 15 minutes during which time Dr Armogan will administer a few tiny injections into the treatment area. Within days you will notice an improvement in the treated area, which can last up to 4 months (Botox treatment results may vary for different individuals). Dr Armogan will determine where to administer the injections by examining the muscles that cause wrinkles. The correct dosage to smoothen affected wrinkles will then be decided. Dr Armogan is an expert injector of Botox. Any possible discomfort due to Botox injections is usually minimal and brief and can be controlled with topical anesthetics and/or ice packs. There is virtually no recovery time required for your Botox injections. You may return immediately to your regular daily routine.
