Wrinkles can betray your age quickly or even add to your current years. Botox treatment helps keep wrinkles at bay to retain your youthful appearance. Like many people, you may have heard about Botox for face wrinkles but know little about how it works. At Main Line Dental Health & Wellness in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, Dr. Jerald Matt and our team have ample experience with Botox treatments and can guide you to its use. While it’s true that Botox isn’t for everyone, we can clarify any doubts or misconceptions about this treatment so you can make an informed decision about its use.
Botox is the brand name given to Botulinum Toxin Type A – a natural protein found in plants, soil, and water. It’s been used for years to treat skin problems and headaches and reduce wrinkles. Botox injections block the nerve signals to facial muscles to keep them from contracting. Dr. Matt can inject Botox into your forehead, cheeks, eyes, jaw, and chin to relax the muscles in these areas. Relaxing these muscles keeps them from forming lines and wrinkles on your skin. As a result, you’ll have a smoother, younger-looking countenance that takes years off of your appearance.
The effects of Botox injections are temporary, lasting between three and four months. After that, additional injections will be needed to retain your youthful appearance. Botox treatments are quick, noninvasive, and easy, taking as little as 10 minutes in the dental chair. They offer an excellent alternative to more invasive cosmetic procedures to make you look young again.
Botox injections have been dubbed the “fountain of youth” for good reason. Here’s what you can expect from this treatment:
Fewer Facial Lines and Wrinkles: Botox does an excellent job of reducing worry lines, crow’s feet, laugh lines, and other facial wrinkles that can add years to your age. Your skin will have a refreshing, younger-looking appearance.
No Droopy Eyebrows or Sagging Jawline: Droopy eyebrows and a sagging jawline are additional tell-tale signs of aging. Botox can give droopy eyebrows and a sagging jawline a subtle lift to improve your appearance.
Defined Facial Features: Botox injections can define facial features and enhance their beauty. Dr. Matt can make your eyes, cheekbones, or prominent jawline stand out to improve your overall appearance. Botox can also diminish facial scars and blemishes that detract from your appearance.
Improved Skin Elasticity: As you age, your skin loses its firmness and elasticity. Botox treatment helps restore these aspects to make your skin look toned, tight, and even. Botox enables you to turn back the clock on aging by restoring your skin’s smooth, supple appearance.
