How Does Botox® Work?

If you feel that you are looking older and more tired these days, Botox® could provide an easy solution to this problem. However, if you have never had this sort of treatment before, you may not know what to expect. How does it work? What are the benefits? Read on to discover everything that you need to know.

Botox® Overview

One of the most popular treatments for facial rejuvenation, Botox® can help you to shed years off your appearance. It is one of the most beneficial solutions for reducing the appearance of wrinkles, helping both women and men to achieve and maintain a naturally youthful appearance. At Western Michigan Plastic Surgery, we have helped many people to get their confidence back with Botox®.

How Botox® and Neurotoxins Work

You may have heard of Botox® before, yet you may be unsure regarding how this sort of treatment works. Botox® is a neuromodulator, which means that it works by blocking the nerve signals between your brain and the muscles in the injection site. The result is that the muscles will relax, creating a much smoother appearance. Botox® is extremely effective when it comes to reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles are simply those lines that have developed as a consequence of the repetitive contraction of specific muscles within your face. Expressions like smiling, frowning, and squinting can cause the skin to crease and fold. After a lot of years of continual muscle contractions, the creases will remain and turn into dynamic wrinkles. However, the good news is that Botox® can help with this.

Botox® can also be used to help with medical conditions, such as excessive sweating.

Am I a Candidate for Botox®?

Of course, you are going to want to know whether or not you are going to be a good candidate for Botox®. If you currently have dynamic wrinkles that are moderate to severe in their nature, Botox® is the perfect treatment to help eradicate these lines.
