Another popular procedure that is available to patients of Fairfield, Connecticut is BOTOX® Cosmetic injection. This is among the most frequently performed cosmetic procedures because of its unique effectiveness and safety in treating certain types of facial wrinkles. BOTOX® Cosmetic is an excellent treatment for the vertical forehead creases that develop between the eyes, making you look sad or angry. BOTOX® Cosmetic can also be used in treating horizontal forehead lines and the crow's feet area around the eyes of both Fairfield, Connecticut men and women. BOTOX® Cosmetic injected in the lower face and neck muscle (platysma) may provide temporary improvement in some of the visible signs of aging in these areas.

BOTOX® Cosmetic works by blocking the transmission of impulses from the nerve cells to the muscle. This causes a temporary and harmless muscle weakening or paralysis, so the muscles that cause certain types of wrinkles become inactive. The result is the temporary elimination or reduction of those wrinkles on men and women of Fairfield, Connecticut.

BOTOX® Cosmetic injections can usually be performed in just minutes and with little or no discomfort to the Fairfield, Connecticut patient. Most often, you will notice the effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic within 48 to 72 hours after injection. On average, results last about 4 months.
