The Truth About Botox TherapiesThere are many misconceptions concerning Botox®

(Botolunim Toxin-A) that people have concerning thesetherapy treatments. Botox® is a medicine that relax mus-cles by inhibiting the secretion of acetylcholine needed formuscle contraction. It has been used for the past (25)years to treat such medical conditions as cervical dystonia,TMJ, and other neuromuscular disorders.

As you grow older your skin becomes less elastic due tothe loss of collagen and reduced vascularization of tissues.Wrinkles (rhytids) occur when certain muscles becomemore dominant and the skin does not have the ability to beas elastic in response to these muscle contractions. Inaddition, muscles become constrictive and naturally formcreases and rhytids . Dynamic rhytids (not a crease of theskin) can be eliminated or lessened by relaxing the dominant muscle as it competes against either an inferiormuscle or in constricting skin elasticity. This is why certainpatients of differing ages start to form wrinkles at differenttimes as compared to other individuals.

Because muscles of the face are relatively small, it is necessary to introduce the medicine by injection so thatthe exact placement and the effect is achieved. By intro-ducing the medicine into the exact muscle group responsi-ble for the wrinkling, various aesthetic enhancements canbe obtained in addition to elimination of the rhytids.Wrinkles of the forehead, crows feet, frown lines, and eye-brow shaping is easily achieved. Other specialty injectionsfor gummy smiles, dimpled chin, bunny lines, vertical liplines, and sad smile can be performed with Botox®.
