Botox® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical, physician-administered treatment that can temporarily smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the brows in people from 18 to 65 years of age.
It is the only treatment of its type approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
BOTOX® is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the activity of the muscles that cause those frown lines between the brows to form over time.
What to Expect After
One 10-minute treatment—a few tiny injections—and within days there’s a noticeable improvement in those persistent lines between the brows, which can last up to 4 months. Results may vary. It can also be used for prevention of excessive underarm sweating with results that can last for 6 months or more. Dr. Stevens has over 16 years experience in treating his patient frown and forehead lines with BOTOX®.
