Ask Cheryl – Common Uses for Botox

Brunette woman

Q:  WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON USES OF BOTOX®?

A:    Botox® and Dysport® are the brands names of botulinum toxin, which is used to reduce frown lines and wrinkles on the upper part of the face.  The facial muscles that create those wrinkles are injected, causing the muscles to relax and the lines to disappear.  The result is a smoother brow, and you look less angry and tired.  The effect lasts 3 to 6 months.

At SkinHealth, we most commonly treat the “11s”, the vertical lines between the eyebrows; frown lines on the forehead; and “crow’s feet”, those crinkly lines at the side of our eyes.

This is a perfect time of year to schedule a treatment so you are looking fresh and vibrant for the holidays.

Schedule a treatment at any one of SkinHealth’s two locations in Massachusetts: Boston and Wellesley.  Call us or book it online.
