There's a reason why so many patients want to know more about Botox. This treatment has helped countless people improve the appearance of their skin and face. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, it is consistently at the top of the list of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed in the United States. The results of a Botox treatment come soon after just one short appointment.

What Is Botox?
Botox, short for botulinum toxin, is a liquid that's injected just below the skin to “freeze” muscles, effectively smoothing out wrinkles and lines in the face. The substance prevents the release of the chemical that causes the muscles to move—they just relax instead. Your doctor will inject Botox in the areas of concern (usually the forehead, around the mouth and around the eyes) to ensure the best results. It’s an FDA approved cosmetic treatment that’s a minimally invasive alternative to plastic surgery of the face.
Why Botox?
Patients like Botox because it works relatively quickly and the appointment is fast. After you leave the office, it takes just a few days to see the full effects. When administered by a qualified practitioner at Visione 360 Eye & Cosmetic Institute in El Paso, the reduction in lines and wrinkles looks natural and you can still make your usual expressions.
