Botox is a purified protein that has been in use for more than two decades to reduce the appearance of facial expression lines and wrinkles. Botox is a non-invasive, nonsurgical procedure that relaxes the facial muscles responsible for lines and wrinkles. The result is a younger looking you.
Botox injections are safe, quick and virtually painless. All you need is a fifteen minute appointment in our Botox Montreal clinic. No pretreatment is necessary and side effects, if any, are minimal and transient. You can return to work from our Montreal and Laval clinic and resume daily activities immediately following the procedure. The full effects of Botox injections become obvious within a couple of days. You willl see a softening of horizontal lines on the forehead, vertical frown lines between the eyebrows, smokers’ lines around the lips, and diminished crow’s feet resulting in a dramatically more youthful, healthy, and less tired or angry appearance. Botox may also be used to treat droopy eyebrows and neck banding.
In addition to the cosmetic benefits, Botox can be used therapeutically in the management of excessive sweating or hyperhydrosis. The most commonly treated areas include the underarms, hands, feet, scalp and sometimes cleavage. Botox injections often succeed where other dermatologic and pharmacologic treatments fail.
Cost of Botox Injections
The cost of Botox injections vary according to the patient’s individual needs. Treatments will last from approximately four to six months. In the case of therapeutic Botox, the cost is often covered by private insurance.
