Botox
Botulinum Toxin (Botox) works by temporarily blocking nerve impulses to muscles, preventing them from moving. It is precisely injected into the skin to smooth out fine lines, wrinkles, and even pebbling chin. It can also help slim the face and offer various other benefits.
The effects of Botulinum Toxin injections gradually take place over the next 14 days, making it an ideal choice for clients seeking a subtle outcome. After 3 months, your body naturally clears the Botox Injections, and muscle contraction returns to normal.
Please arrive 10 minutes before your appointment to ensure a timely start. Please note you will not be able to complete your treatment if you are late due to scheduling.
