Overview of Botox Injections:
As skin ages, it loses its elasticity, and fine lines and wrinkles begin to appear. This has led to an increased interest in Botox injections. Botox is a type of medication injected into small facial muscles to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles, giving a more youthful and vibrant look.

The Botox treatment involves multiple precise injections directly into the muscle. The doctor usually applies a topical numbing cream to avoid discomfort. The procedure typically takes about 10 minutes.

Minor bleeding may occur at the injection sites, usually stopping within minutes. Bruising or swelling may also occur, which can be minimized by applying cold compresses for a few minutes.

The effect of the injections may last for 3 or 4 months, requiring repeated treatments.
