Botulinum toxin is a naturally produced protein by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When injected, it relaxes the muscles.
Botulinum toxin is typically helpful in the upper face to lift the brows and improve forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet wrinkles near the eyes. It can also be given in the lower face to slim the jawline or improve neck bands.
Dr. Amanda Fanous uses Botulinum toxin to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles and to provide patients with a more relaxed and rejuvenated look.
The actual injection takes about 5 minutes with not much discomfort. The effect begins 3 to 7 days after the treatment and lasts for up to 3 to 6 months. Some swelling and bruising may occur and last for a few days following injection.
