You
want to look younger. The signs of aging have been bothering you lately.
They're making you look tired or angry. You see yourself looking older
than you feel, but you don't want surgery or any long recovery period.
BOTOX®
Cosmetic is a simple, non-surgical treatment that can temporarily smooth
facial lines, giving skin a smooth, rested and more youthful appearance.
It
temporarily reduces or eliminates frown lines, forehead creases and
crow's feet around the eyes.
A
Botox treatment only takes a few minutes and a noticeable difference
is seen within days. The effects can last for up to four months.
FAQs
How Does It Work?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a purified
protein produced by the clostridium botulism bacterium which reduces
the activity of the muscles that cause many facial lines to form. Relaxing
specific muscles allows lines of expression to soften, giving the skin
a smooth appearance within a week. Because specific muscles are targeted,
desired facial expressions are unaffected. Skin sensation also remains
unchanged.
What should I expect?
The appointment begins with a
personal consultation with Dr. Billinkoff. Your individual concerns
are discussed and your questions are answered. Once everything is explained
the treatment only takes a few minutes. A series of tiny injections
is given which doesn't require any anesthetic. In most cases there is
no down time and patients can resume their normal activities.
The effects start to become noticeable
within a couple of days. Best results are seen within two weeks. These
results usually last for up to four months. Repeated use is recommended
to maintain a more youthful appearance.
Will my facial expressions continue
to look natural?
By targeting specific muscles
with appropriate doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic, only unwanted negative
expressions should be affected. The muscle activity that causes facial
lines is simply reduced. A BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment should not
radically change your facial appearance or make you look as if you "had
work done".
Who should administer BOTOX®
Cosmetic?
While many physicians' offices
offer BOTOX® Cosmetic injections, many are actually performed by
a nurse assistant. At Billinkoff Aesthetics all injections are performed
personally by Dr. Errol Billinkoff.
Which areas are most commonly
treated?
Although dozens of areas can
be treated, BOTOX® Cosmetic is most often used to treat frown lines
between the eyebrows, crow's feet around the eyes and horizontal forehead
lines.
What is the cost of a
BOTOX® Treatment?
Many patients are surprised
at how affordable BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment can be. We charge just
$10 per unit and will match the advertised price or written quote from
any Winnipeg clinic offering BOTOX® Cosmetic.
The amount of BOTOX® required
to treat an area depends on the size of the muscle causing the wrinkle.
This means that the amount of BOTOX® required for a man is usually
more than for a woman.
In just days, a simple BOTOX®
Cosmetic injection at Billinkoff Aesthetics can begin to eliminate unappealing
lines! Start looking as young as you feel. Call Dr. Errol Billinkoff
for a complimentary consultation, with no strings attached.
