Your Botox Questions Answered
When Botox is mentioned casually, most people know what it is but don’t know much else. What does it do to the facial muscles? How much does it cost? What are the benefits? Luckily, at Medical Center Weight Loss Clinic & Spa, we can answer all of your Botox questions right here!
Botox works by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles with a small injection needle. What does it accomplish? Botox allows you to smile, frown, and look surprised, etc. without wrinkles appearing on your face and neck. It’s the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment in the United States today.
Do Botox injections actually paralyze the facial muscles? No, that is a common misconception. This can only happen if Botox is used in excess, but the staff and clinical nurses at Medical Center Weight Loss Clinic know just the right amount to inject with the goal of leaving patients looking younger, more rested, and happier.
Right now, our Botox injections are going for only $10 per unit. A small price to pay to fix those lines, wrinkles, creases and drooping skin. Plus, the results are long-lasting (up to 4 months) and begin working as quickly as one week. Is it painful? Not enough where sedation or anesthesia is required. Discomfort is generally minimal and brief as the treatment only takes a few minutes.
