Botox

‍

Tired of wrinkles in and around the eyes and brow? Want a non-surgical solution to look 2-5 years younger? BOTOX® is a popular non-surgical wrinkle treatment for men and women offered at G&G Med Spa at Gillespie Plastic Surgery.

‍Botox is a botulinum toxin that is injected to relax facial muscles that cause deep creases.  The use of Botox has been proven to take years off the age of your face and it is very safe when administered by an experienced medical provider. In addition to reducing the appearance of wrinkles, Botox can be used to treat other conditions such as excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), migraine headaches, teeth grinding (bruxism) and TMJ disorders.

Botox works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. Botox treatments require regular maintenance to maintain optimal results.  Results last 3-4 months and then need to be reapplied. Botox injections are generally well-tolerated, with mild to moderate side effects such as redness, swelling, and bruising at the injection site.
