Botox® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic
With BOTOX® Cosmetic, looking young and radiant is now as convenient as grabbing a quick meal. BOTOX® Cosmetic is an innovation in cosmetic treatments for women who want significant reduction of facial lines and wrinkles without spending significant time and money on more complex procedures like chemical peels or fillers. Treatment takes about 15 minutes; results can be seen within a few days and last between 3 to 6 months.
Many wrinkles and laugh lines occur because our facial muscles contract causing the skin to furrow. BOTOX® Cosmetic is made from a natural protein called botulinum toxin Type A, which keeps muscles from contracting for a period of time. BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments are a series of little, painless, injections made directly into the facial muscles. The muscles stay relaxed so the skin remains smooth creating a naturally young appearance.
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a non-surgical procedure that does not require anesthesia or pain medication. Because treatment is simple and direct, it is also quick, and can be administered easily right in the doctor’s office. Fitting a BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment into a busy schedule is as painless as the procedure.

BOTOX® Cosmetic for Excessive Sweating

Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is a medical condition. It is not a disease itself but rather a symptom of other medical conditions such as a disorder of the nerves. Hyperhidrosis affects up to 3% of the population. It is unknown as to why some develop the condition and others do not.
The effect of it on our lives can vary from embarrassing to truly devastating. All too often, living with hyperhidrosis becomes a silent struggle: avoiding social contact, trying to disguise the excessive sweating with clothing, powders, and pads. Our social, professional, and even most intimate relationships may be seriously affected.
Even though hyperhidrosis is a medical condition that can have profound and devastating effects on our physical and mental well-being, most insurance companies will not reimburse plan members for the treatment.
