Botox is the brand name of a purified version of the botulinum type A toxin. It comes in gel form and is administered with a painless injection. Botox in Burnham, Buckinghamshire temporarily inhibits the nerve impulses that tell the tiny facial muscles to tighten, and thus they are forced to relax, smoothing out the skin lying over them. We use it to reduce crow’s feet wrinkles around the eyes, smoking lines around the mouth and frown lines between the eyes.

It takes between five and ten minutes to treat each area and the effects slowly become apparent over the next week. Treatments last up to six months, and you can have top up treatments about three months after your initial treatment.
