Botox is a brand name for a drug derived from botulinum toxin, a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. Parkland Medspa and Wellness Center’s master injectors primarily perform Botox to reduce wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing facial muscles. However, Parkland Medspa’s master injectors also perform Botox for various medical applications, including treating conditions like severe underarm sweating (hyperhidrosis), cervical dystonia, blepharospasm, strabismus, chronic migraines, and overactive bladder.
How Botox Works:
- Botox is an injectable neurotoxin that works by blocking nerve signals to muscles, preventing them from contracting.
- For cosmetic purposes, this temporary muscle paralysis reduces the appearance of wrinkles caused by facial expressions.
- In medical treatments, Botox can relax muscles that are overactive or experiencing spasms, helping to alleviate symptoms of various conditions.
Cosmetic Uses:
- BOTOX Cosmetic is specifically used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines.
- It can also be used to treat vertical bands in the neck (platysma bands).
- The effects of Botox cosmetic treatments typically last for about three to four months.
Medical Uses:
- Botox is used to treat a wide range of medical conditions, including:
- Cervical Dystonia: A neurological disorder causing severe neck and shoulder muscle contractions.
- Blepharospasm: Uncontrollable blinking.
- Strabismus: Misaligned eyes.
- Chronic migraines: Botox injections can help reduce the frequency and severity of migraines.
- Overactive Bladder: Botox can help relax the bladder muscles, reducing urinary incontinence.
- Hyperhidrosis: Severe underarm sweating.
Parkland Medspa & Wellness Center’s master injectors perform both Botox and Xeomin which are neurotoxins used to reduce wrinkles, but they differ slightly in their formulations and potential for antibody resistance. Botox contains additional proteins, while Xeomin is a "naked" form with only the active ingredient. This difference can affect the likelihood of developing resistance over time. Both treatments have similar durations (3-6 months) and common side effects, but some prefer Xeomin due to its purity and potential to minimize resistance.
Neurotoxin patients including Parkland Botox patients, Fort Lauderdale Botox patients, Boca Raton Botox patients, Coral Springs Botox patients, Coconut Creek Botox patients, and Pompano Beach Botox patients provide Parkland Medspa & Wellness Center excellent reviews and ratings.
