How Botox Works


1. Nerve Signal Blocking:
Botox disrupts signals between nerves and muscles.
This prevents muscle contractions that cause wrinkles.

2. Muscle Relaxation:
As muscles relax, the skin above them smooths out.
This reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

3. Gradual Results:
Full effects typically appear within 5-14 days.
The skin continues to improve as muscles learn to relax.

Cosmetic Applications

Forehead Lines

Botox smooths horizontal lines across the forehead, creating a more youthful appearance. 

Frown Lines

Vertical lines between the eyebrows are softened, promoting a more relaxed expression.

Crow's Feet

Fine lines around the eyes are diminished, reducing signs of aging and fatigue.

Jawline Slimming

Injections in the masseter muscle can create a slimmer, V-shaped facial contour.

Beyond Cosmetics: Medical Uses

Migraine Treatment

Botox injections can significantly reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines.

Hyperhidrosis Management

Excessive sweating in the armpits can be effectively controlled with targeted Botox injections.

Muscle Spasticity Relief

Both adults and children with muscle spasticity can benefit from Botox treatments.

The Botox Procedure

Consultation

Discuss your aspirations and  concerns with Dr. Teng to create a personalized treatment plan.

Injection

A fine needle precisely targets specific muscles. The procedure is quick with minimal discomfort.

Results

Gradual improvement occurs over 5-14 days. Enjoy a more relaxed youthful-looking appearance.

Duration and Maintenance

Botox effects on facial muscles typically last for 3 to 4 months. The duration of effect varies between individuals. As muscle activity returns, wrinkles may reappear. Regular treatments can lead to longer-lasting results over time.

After the initial treatment a follow-up visit should occur at 2-3 weeks time. Following that reviews at 4 monthly intervals would be best to maintain results. Dr. Teng will create a personalized treatment plan based on your individual needs and response.
