Whenever we frown, we gather tissue between our eyebrows into a fold. For many of us, this causes a chronic furrow that produces a frustrated and angry look on our faces. This can be alienating to others and upsetting to us. Now, you can make these frown lines disappear without surgery and without scars by a simple treatment of Botox®.
 Botox®, the trade name of Botulinum Toxin Type A, originally was used for the treatment of lazy eye or uncontrolled eye blinking. Now it is being used by plastic surgeons to achieve a younger appearance. Botox® blocks the nerve impulses to muscles, which then results in a form of temporary muscle paralysis.
Dr. Davis injects an extremely small dosage of Botox® directly into the muscle. The action of that specific muscle is then stopped, ridding the area of problem frown lines or twitches. This is an entirely different approach to treating the aging face. Collagen and fat injections work by filling in a wrinkle. These fillers are not as effective as Botox® in improving the frown wrinkles between the eyebrows.
By physiologically weakening the muscles, these wrinkles are removed naturally. The treatment takes only a few minutes to administer and takes effect over the next two or three days. Botox® is most effective for the frown lines between the eyebrows but can also be used to lessen the horizontal wrinkles in the central portion of the forehead.
