Is Botox right for you?

One of SLEEK's most popular procedures and ranked by The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery as the most popular of all medically administered cosmetic procedures. Botox® is a simple, non-surgical, physician administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows and crows feet near the eyes. Botox® is an injectable that blocks the nerve impulses and temporarily paralyzes the muscles, which cause wrinkles. Results can last for up to 4 months, and in clinical trials, nearly 90% of men and women surveyed rated the improvement in the appearance of frown lines between their brows as moderate to better 1 month after treatment.

Are you embarrassed by uncontrollable sweating? Botox® is also FDA-approved for the treatment of excessive underarm sweating that is not adequately managed with topical agents.

What to Expect

Our practitioners are highly skilled masters in the art of injectables. Your SLEEK Practitioner will determine where to administer the injections by your ability to move certain muscles in the desired treatment area. Next, several tiny injections of Botox® are placed in the muscles that cause wrinkles. No anesthesia is required although your practitioner may numb the area with a cold pack or anesthetic cream prior to injecting.

Some patients also suffered from migraine noticed they had a lot fewer headaches after the injection of Botox. This prompted the manufacturer to conduct a survey of over 1300 people who all had frequent attacks of migraine and headache.
