Aging is a universal experience that brings changes to our skin, including the development of fine lines, wrinkles, and a decrease in facial elasticity. Although moisturizing products and sunscreen can enhance hydration and guard against additional damage from the sun, they cannot reverse existing lines. However, Botox offers a solution for smoothing out existing lines on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the corners of the eyes.
At New Image Cosmetic in Edmonton, Alberta, we offer customized treatments with Botox®, the popular cosmetic injectable designed to help patients address cosmetic and medical concerns. When you schedule your treatments at our office, Dr. Poon will personally administer this injectable. He will use his 20 years of experience with injectables, and as an Allergan® trainer, to ensure you achieve your desired results.
What Is Botox®?
Botox® is a neuromodulator that contains an active ingredient called botulinum type A. This highly purified protein is a neurotoxin that works on the muscular level to accomplish different aging-related and cosmetic goals. It can also treat medical conditions by alleviating specific symptoms to improve quality of life. This injectable provides a temporary solution for cosmetic and medical needs and delivers long-lasting results.
We can use it to smooth expression lines in three FDA-approved areas of the face: the outer corners of the eyes as a treatment for crow’s feet, the forehead to treat forehead lines, and the area between the eyebrows to smooth frown lines.
