BOTOX FAQ

In Essex and London, UK

What is the BOTOX ® serum made from?
BOTOX ® Cosmetic is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium, which reduces the activity of the muscles that cause those frown lines between the brows to form over time.

How does BOTOX ® make wrinkles “disappear”?
Normally, your brain sends electrochemical messages to your muscles to make them contract and move. These messages are transmitted from a nerve to the muscle by a substance called acetylcholine. When too much acetylcholine is released, muscles become overly active and spasm or tense up.

BOTOX ® blocks the nerve from releasing acetylcholine. As a result, the muscle spasms stop or are greatly reduced, providing relief from symptoms. Your healthcare provider will know how much BOTOX ® is needed to treat you effectively.

How popular is the BOTOX ® Cosmetic treatment?
A million people have been treated with BOTOX ® Cosmetic since FDA approval in 2002. Not just models and movie stars, but people from all types of professions.

BOTOX ® has been used for more than 15 years to help patients worldwide, and it is approved by the health ministries of at least 70 countries.

How often do I need a BOTOX ® re-treatment?The effects of BOTOX®  usually last about four months, although it will vary by patient.  Because BOTOX ® is a safe material, it can be repeated as necessary without regulation.  As soon as you notice your facial wrinkles beginning to relax and take their old shape, you can schedule your next re-treatment.
