As we grow up and the years go by, life throws a lot at us. We power through and learn a lot, but our body endures a fair bit as we march on day by day. And unfortunately, our skin and muscles can sometimes showcase that enduring wear and tear more than we would like. This is especially true for facial skin and muscles, and this wear and tear can lead to the development of undesirable skin features, like severe frown lines, forehead lines, or crow’s feet. These can be pretty disheartening to notice on yourself, especially when all you want is natural, youthful, and healthy-looking skin. It can even help reduce excessive sweating in certain cases.

But all hope is not lost. The modern age has allowed for incredible technological advancements in skincare and anti-aging techniques. s. Botox Cosmetic is the first and only FDA-approved prescription injection that can temporarily moderate or diminish visible signs of aging for forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet and bunny lines. It’s a quick and simple treatment, and you will notice results almost immediately. Keep reading below to learn more about this incredible treatment that Tamjidi Skin Institute offers in Maryland and Virginia, and how we can help you.

What is Botox Cosmetic Treatment?

The wrinkles and lines that appear on our skin and face as we age are due to the repeated muscle contractions from facial expressions over years of frowning, smiling, squinting, raising eyebrows, etc. These repeated muscle contractions cause the skin to fold and furrow, creating lasting lines and wrinkles. Botox Cosmetic is a prescription injection that uses the tongue-twisting medical solution, onabotulinumtoxinA, as a neuro-muscle blocker, to reduce underlying muscle activity at the injection site. When Botox Cosmetic is injected into the facial muscles, it works beneath the surface to temporarily reduce underlying muscle activity, which then helps the skin restore some of its original shape and appear smooth and youthful.

How Does the Treatment Work?

The administering of the treatment is a quick and fairly simple process. The average Botox Cosmetic treatments will take around 10 minutes with little downtime, and you may begin to notice results as soon as 24 to 48 hours after the treatment. The muscle-blocking effects last for up to four months, which allows for your skin to recover its shape a bit until you are fully satisfied or would like to have another easy treatment administered. The results should be both subtle and predictable, limiting the severity of the appearance of aging lines while still leaving your face looking natural and not overdone.
