Botox Cosmetic

Improving the look of lines and wrinkles on the face does not have to mean going through invasive plastic surgery or a face lift. There are many products currently in use that can return a natural, youthful look to your face which are less invasive, expensive, and painful than the traditional facelift.
Botox Is a Liquid Face Lift product that can help restore your youthful appearance with minimal discomfort and invasiveness. Botox has become a household name over the last ten years. It was approved by the FDA in 2002. Since then, millions of people worldwide have used it to improve the look of lines and wrinkles and restore a more youthful look to the face. Botox is often used to improve the look of frown lines between the brows.  Botox is one of the top five products used for nonsurgical cosmetic procedures every year.

Botox can be used to treat the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and other wrinkles and lines that show up on the face.  Botox is made from a neurotoxin and works by producing a nerve block. Botox blocks the chemical that triggers muscle contraction. It is the movement, or contraction of muscles that causes wrinkles to form. If the muscle cannot contract, wrinkles cannot form.

Just like other Liquid Face Lift treatments, the results of Botox treatment are temporary and repeat treatments will be needed.  Typical results will last anywhere from 3-8 months before touch ups are done. Results vary by individual.  As with other Liquid Face Lift injections, a small amount of swelling or bruising may be experienced for up to a few days.

Botox injections should always be given in a doctors’ office and by a qualified physician. Injections should never be given by an assistant or nurse or other office personnel. Botox is a famous guest at “parties” but any Botox party you attend should be given by your licensed physician in a state of the art facility. At Rinnova you will always receive the personal attention of Dr. Cappiello.
