Here in Portland, we offer expert Botox services that deliver quick and effective results lasting up to 3 to 6 months.
What is Botox?
Botox is a neurotoxin derived from Clostridium botulinum bacteria. When injected in small, controlled amounts, it temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance. Botox is commonly used to treat:
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
- Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
- Bunny lines (lines on the nose)
- Lip lines
