Botox Cosmetic Test

If there’s one anti-aging treatment most everyone has heard of, it’s Botox. Botox is the world’s leading brand of anti-wrinkle injections, highly effective in reversing lines and wrinkles.
 
As we age, maintaining a youthful appearance gets more difficult, as wrinkles, fine lines, sagging skin, and other signs of age start to show. That is why more and more individuals are turning to Botox injections. Botox injections are a proven way to make wrinkles vanish! 
 
Past a certain age, creams may work on the texture of your skin but, to restore elasticity, the only treatment that you can count on is Botox. That’s why it’s the number-one selling neurotoxin known for delivering subtle, predictable results.
 
Botox injections block the signals from the nerves to your facial muscles, which stops the muscle’s ability to contract. That makes wrinkles relax and soften. After Botox treatment, your wrinkles become smoother.

Pre & Post Treatment Instructions

  • Please avoid all blood-thinning medications and supplements one week before treatment to achieve optimal results and minimize the risk of bleeding or bruising at the injection site. This includes aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, Motrin, and Aleve, and fish oil and vitamin-E supplements. Do not stop taking your medication if your doctor has prescribed you aspirin or another blood thinner.
  • If you are taking Plavix, Coumadin, or any other blood thinner for a medical condition, please let us know in advance.
  • Immediately following the injections, the most reported side effects are temporary redness and swelling at the injection site. Cold compresses can be applied directly after the treatment to reduce swelling.
  • Avoid taking blood-thinning medications to avoid bruises.
  • For pain relief, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is recommended.
