on and around delicate eye tissue.

The
chemical known as Botox
®, or Botulinum Toxin,
relaxes the muscle by blocking
nerve stimulation. Scientists
have found that in addition to
controlling eye muscle spasms, Botox
® also blocks repetitive
muscle activity. The results are
softer, sometimes unnoticeable
wrinkles.
Botox ® can
be used to treat "laugh lines",
"frown lines", "crows
feet", as well as those vertical
lines in the neck. Because there
is no “recovery period”,
the results are seen almost
immediately. The effect of Botox ®
injections is temporary so repeated
treatments may be needed every
3 to 6 months.
