You are good candidate for Botox if you have areas of dynamic wrinkles that you would like to soften. Dynamic wrinkles are lines that are created by expressions. Botox works by relaxing muscles that cause the expressions. The most popular areas to be treated by Botox is the frown lines, smiles lines around the eyes, and forehead creases.
Common areas include crows feet, frown lines, and forehead lines. Botox treatments are not only for wrinkle relaxer treatments. We are able to use it for other issues such as chronic migraine treatment, TMJ, Cervical Dystonia, Trapezius Muscle, Hyperhidrosis, and for other areas of concern.
