Botox
Say Goodbye to Wrinkles
Facial Art Institute providers Botox® injections in Oklahoma City. Botox® is the #1 most popular cosmetic treatment in the world. It has established a respected name for itself in medicine, particularly aesthetics. That’s why it’s still so popular after over a decade on the market.
Both Botox® and Dysport® are neurotoxin injectable treatments that are the most effective way to temporarily improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by repeated facial expressions like smiling, squinting, or frowning. Results are excellent in all age groups, softening existing lines and preventing new lines from forming.
How does Botox work?
The main component in the injection is a bacterial toxin called botulinum toxin. When safely and precisely injected into your muscles, it blocks the nerve signal telling it to flex. The effect lasts for three to six months on average.
Products
Facial Art Institute offers Botox in its traditional and most popular form, as well as two similar botulinum toxin injectables:
Xeomin®
Xeomin is a form of botulinum toxin injection with an additive-free formula. It specifically treats cervical dystonia, blepharospasm, and frown lines.
Dysport®
Dysport is a botulinum toxin injection that specializes in severe wrinkles in patients under 65. Its specialty is frown lines that appear between your eyebrows and become more prominent with age, even at rest.
What results can I get with Botox?
Botox and other botulinum toxin products are most often used for treating dynamic wrinkles and lines on your face. Dynamic wrinkles aren’t your typical creases that appear from skin laxity: rather, they appear when your skin folds as you make facial expressions. Over time, and after countless facial expressions, they stay in place permanently.
Common dynamic wrinkles that Botox and similar products reduce are:
- Crow’s feet
- Frown lines between your eyebrows
- Forehead lines
- Lip lines
- Bunny lines on your nose
- Marionette lines alongside your chin
Beyond wrinkle smoothing, Botox injections can treat other conditions like:
- Cervical dystonia
- Blepharospasm (uncontrolled blinking)
- Crossed or misaligned eyes
- Severe armpit sweating
- Migraines
The list of applications for Botox is extensive. If your provider at Facial Art Institute thinks you’d benefit from Botox, they’ll let you know how it could help.
Am I a good candidate for Botox?
We will work with you to determine which botulinum toxin formula, if any, is best for you. If injections aren’t a feasible path to fewer wrinkles for you, we’ll help you review other options for skin smoothing.
You might be a good candidate for Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin if you:
- Have moderate-to-severe facial creases
- Aren’t pregnant or breastfeeding
- Aren’t allergic to milk
- Are between the ages of 18-65
