BOTOX Cincinnati Ohio

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a non-surgical procedure that smoothes the lines between your brows. Life creates indelible marks on our faces. Many lines are actually creases that have been worn into the skin by repeating the same expression thousands of times. Muscles contract under the skin, causing these expressions. Now you can change the effects of time with BOTOX® Cosmetic.

If you are thinking about reducing the lines around your eyes and forehead, please consider the following information.

BOTOX is a derivative of a very potent purified protein, which in small doses inhibits the release of acetylcholine, a chemical that causes muscles to contract. The FDA-approved procedure has demonstrated dramatic improvement in the appearance of wrinkles. It works by relaxing the muscles that form lines, thereby eliminating wrinkly expressions such as furrows, squints and puckered brows. It also helps prevent further wrinkles from forming.
