What is botox
it is a neurotoxin derived from Clostridium botulinum. It contains highly purified botulinum toxin protein. They are injected in muscles to smooth crow’s-feet around the eyes and frown lines and other lines on the forehead.
How long does it last.
The effects will last three to six months. As muscle action gradually returns, the lines and wrinkles begin to reappear and need another treatment. The lines and wrinkles often appear less severe with time because the muscles are shrinking.
Before and after use
Photos were taken at a full smile before and 7 days after treatment. In 2 clinical studies, 26.1% and 20.3% of adults had improvement at day 30. In one of these studies, 67.9% had mild or no crow’s feet lines at day 30 after treatment. Allergan Botox (1x100iu, 200iu, 50IU)

I started getting Botox regularly (every 3-4 months) 4 years ago. I did not have a lot of deep wrinkles but I did have a crease mark in between my eyebrows. I get the Botox injected in my forehead, under and around my eyes, and in between my eyebrows. It usually takes maybe 4 days for me to see the results and they are always fabulous.
I would encourage anyone who wants to get Botox to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon or Dermatologist. These are professionals who have extensive knowledge of the structure of the face and haven’t just taken a weekend course.
