BOTOX

Smiling, laughing, frowning are all emotions that result in wrinkles caused by the contractions of facial muscles used when these feelings are exhibited.  Deeper wrinkles and lines are more likely in those who show more expression.  Recently the FDA has approved a drug called Botox that works on those muscles to soften the wrinkles and lines.

Botox blocks nerve impulses to immobilize those small muscles inhibiting the wrinkles and lines for several months.    It is a very safe procedure when performed by properly trained physicians. 

For more information on Botox, call our office at (863) 299-1251 and arrange for a private consultation.
