Botox

Botox is a simple, nonsurgical, physician administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines on the face. It can also be used to reduce excess sweating in the armpits and hands. It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). One 10-minute treatment of a few tiny injections will within days yield a noticeable improvement in moderate to severe frown lines of the face. Botox can also be used to reshape the face in certain areas. For example, it can be used as a nonsurgical eyebrow lift, to raise the eyebrows for a more youthful appearance. Results may vary and usually last up to four months.
