Is There a Botox Specialist Near Me?
By Dr. Mary Lupo
What is Botox, and How Exactly Does It Work?
Botox is a medication used to reduce muscle contractions. It is used in many other areas of medicine to provide muscle relaxation. For example, it is FDA-approved for treating overactive bladder, hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), and chronic headaches and migraines associated with tension or conditions such as temporomandibular joint disorder. However, it has also been a great anti-wrinkle injection for facial imperfections. Botox is made from botulinum toxin type A, which is safe when injected into muscles and offers relaxation over several days. This is when patients will notice changes in their wrinkles and folds that are noticeable and long-lasting.Why is it Important to Visit a Botox Specialist for Injections?

Who is a Good Candidate for Botox?
Patients considering Botox should be in good overall health and have no preexisting medical conditions that may not work well alongside Botox injections. Patients with mild to moderate wrinkles and folds will be best suited for this treatment.
