As the first FDA-approved injection, Botox® uses a neurotoxin called botulinum toxin to temporarily block chemical signals from the nerves in the face, neck, and forehead to relax muscles and prevent them from moving. As muscles are relaxed, wrinkles, fine lines, and other skin imperfections are reduced as skin becomes tighter and smoother.

How long does Botox procedure take?
Typically, a Botox treatment requires only 10-20 minutes in an examination room and ends with absolutely minimal or no discomfort. Usually, you can return to work immediately, while we recommend that you stay away from getting into strenuous activity until the next day.
How long does Botox treatment last?
First results usually appear 5 to 7 days after injection, and typically last from 90 to 120 days. Because these results don’t last forever, repeated injections are needed to preserve the achieved effects.
What areas of the face can be treated with Botox?
The most common Botox treatment areas are:
-11 lines or glabella,
-forehead lines
-“crow’s feet”(lines around the eyes)
However, Botox is a versatile drug and at Modern Vitality Medicine it can be used for:
-Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis – Botox is effectively used for excessive sweating by blocking the release of acetylcholine, thus causing sweat glands to stop producing sweat. Around 20-25 minor injections to the underarm area effectively reduces sweating by up to 90% within 2 days period, lasting up to 10 month, or even longer.
