BOTOX

At Core Medical Group, we pride ourselves on offering state-of-the-art medical aesthetics treatments to help you look and feel your best. One of our most popular and trusted treatments is Botox. Whether you want to minimize fine lines and wrinkles or prevent new ones from forming, Botox is a proven, safe, and effective solution to rejuvenate your appearance and enhance your natural beauty.

What is BOTOX?

Botox, short for botulinum toxin, is a highly refined medical treatment that temporarily reduces muscle activity. Botox relaxes targeted muscles when injected into specific areas, smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines caused by repetitive facial expressions like smiling, frowning, or squinting.

Approved by the FDA in 2002 for cosmetic use, Botox has become one of the most widely used and trusted non-invasive treatments for facial rejuvenation. Beyond its cosmetic applications, Botox is also used for various medical purposes, such as treating migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and muscle spasms.

HOW BOTOX WORKS

Wrinkles and fine lines often form due to the repeated movement of facial muscles over time. Common areas include:

  • Crow’s feet around the eyes

  • Frown lines between the eyebrows (commonly called “11 lines”)

  • Forehead Lines

Botox works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles in these areas, causing them to relax. This results in smoother skin and a more youthful appearance. The effects are temporary, typically lasting three to four months, making it a convenient option for those seeking ongoing rejuvenation without surgery.

Benefits of Botox

  • Non-Invasive Treatment: Botox is a quick and non-surgical procedure with no downtime. Most treatments take less than 30 minutes, and patients can return to their daily activities immediately after.

  • Minimizes Wrinkles: Botox smooths out dynamic wrinkles, making your skin look more youthful and refreshed.

  • Prevents New Wrinkles: Botox can also be used preventively. By reducing repetitive facial movements, it helps stop the formation of new wrinkles over time.

  • Customizable Results: Treatments are tailored to each individual, ensuring natural-looking results that enhance your unique features without a “frozen” appearance.

  • Boosts Confidence: A rejuvenated appearance often leads to increased self-esteem and confidence.

Areas Botox Can Treat

Forehead Lines

Horizontal lines across the forehead are one of the most common signs of aging. Botox smooths these lines, creating a refreshed and youthful appearance.

Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines)

Frown lines, or “11 lines,” form between the eyebrows due to repeated squinting or frowning. Botox relaxes these muscles, softening their appearance.

Crow’s Feet

The delicate skin around the eyes is often the first to show signs of aging. Botox reduces crow’s feet for a smoother, more rested look.

Bunny Lines

These small wrinkles appear on the nose when you scrunch it. Botox can help smooth them out for a more refined profile.

Lip Lines

Vertical lines around the lips can form from puckering or smoking. A small amount of Botox relaxes these lines, restoring a youthful mouth.

Jawline Slimming

Botox can reduce the appearance of a bulky jawline by relaxing the masseter muscle, resulting in a slimmer and more contoured facial shape.

What to Expect During a Botox Treatment

At Core Medical Group, we strive to make every Botox appointment as comfortable and efficient as possible. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:

  • Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced practitioners. We’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and medical history to create a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs.

  • Preparation: On the day of your appointment, the treatment area will be cleansed. We may apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort, although most patients report minimal discomfort during Botox injections.

  • Injection: Using a fine needle, Botox is carefully injected into the targeted areas. Our skilled practitioners use precise techniques to ensure natural and symmetrical results.

  • Post-Treatment Care: After your procedure, you can resume most daily activities immediately. We’ll provide you with aftercare instructions to optimize your results, such as avoiding strenuous exercise or lying down for a few hours post-treatment.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Botox?

Botox is suitable for most adults who are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles or prevent their formation. Ideal candidates include those who:

  • Have dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions

  • Want a non-invasive treatment with no downtime

  • Are seeking natural-looking results

However, Botox may not be suitable for individuals who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain medical conditions. During your consultation at Core Medical Group, we’ll assess your suitability for Botox and recommend alternative treatments if necessary.
