What is botox?

Botox is a muscle relaxant registered in New Zealand for treatment of frown lines, crow's feet, horizontal forehead lines, excessive perspiration, blepharospasm and strabismus. Botox is a naturally purified protein derived from a bacteria called Clostridium botulinum which is then put through rigorous changes in the laboratory to make it safe.

What can Botox be used for?

The most important use of Botox is in reducing facial lines caused by repeated contraction of the muscles like frown lines, crow's feet and horizontal forehead lines.

Botox is used around the neck, chin and lip areas. The before and after photos of botox treatment below indicate the natural results achieved for the crows feet area.

Botox is a wonder cure used to upturn mouth corners, reduce bunny scrunch lines, adjust eyebrow shape, smooth popply chins and soften lip lines. Reduction of neck bands and jowls and slimming of wide jaws are also attributed to botox.

In addition to all the above, botox can stop excessive sweating of the armpits and palms of the hand. Botox is effective in even curing migraines.

The hallmark of highly trained botox practitioners is that they understand facial anatomy and balance. Many clients need adjusted treatment to suit the particular face shape they desire.
