Botox

At Damas Medical Center, we believe in harnessing the power of innovative solutions to enhance your well-being. Botox, often associated with wrinkle reduction, offers a surprising range of medical applications beyond aesthetics.

Botox: More Than Just Wrinkle Reduction

Botox, or botulinum toxin type A, is a purified protein with a powerful function:

Function: Botox works by temporarily blocking the signals between nerves and muscles, causing relaxation in the targeted area.

Diverse Medical Applications

While Botox is known for its cosmetic benefits, its versatility extends to various medical indications:

Wrinkle Reduction: Relaxes facial and neck muscles that contribute to wrinkles and fine lines, promoting a smoother appearance. (Duration: 3-6 months), Forehead, around the eyes and between the eyebrows, nose, and smile lines. Botox effectively addresses wrinkles and fine lines caused by repeated facial expressions. This includes
- Crow's Feet: Those pesky lines around the eyes can be smoothed for a brighter and more youthful appearance.
- Brighter Eyes: Reduced wrinkles and a lifted brow area can create the illusion of brighter and more youthful-looking eyes.
- Forehead Wrinkles: Frown lines and horizontal forehead wrinkles can be softened for a smoother and more relaxed look.
- Frown Lines: The deep lines between your brows can be minimized for a less severe and more approachable expression.
- Smile Lines: Lines around the mouth, also known as smile lines or parentheses lines, can be softened for a more youthful look.
- Lip Lines: Vertical lines above the upper lip can be relaxed, creating smoother and plumper-looking lips.
Brow Lift: By relaxing specific muscles, Botox can create a subtle brow lift effect, opening up the eye area and creating a more youthful appearance.
Enhanced Lip Shape: Botox can be used strategically to create a subtle "cupid's bow" effect on the upper lip.
Preventive Care: Botox can be used preventatively to minimize the formation of future wrinkles across your face.

Beyond Wrinkles: Achieving a Balanced and Refreshed Look

Botox offers additional benefits for facial rejuvenation:

Reduced Gummy Smile: Botox can help address a "gummy smile" by relaxing the muscle that lifts the upper lip, revealing less gum tissue when you smile.
Diminished Jaw Clenching: Botox can relax the jaw muscles, offering relief from teeth grinding and a more relaxed jawline appearance.
Chronic Migraines: Blocks pain signals associated with migraines, reducing headache frequency and intensity. (Duration: 3-6 months)
Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating): Inhibits sweat gland activity, offering relief from excessive underarm sweating, hand sweating, and facial sweating. (Duration: 6-12 months)
Muscle Spasms: Relaxes overactive muscles, providing relief from conditions like cervical dystonia (neck spasms), blepharospasm (eyelid twitching), and hemifacial spasm (facial twitching). (Duration: 3-6 months)
TMJ Dysfunction: Reduces muscle tension in the jaw, alleviating pain and discomfort associated with temporomandibular joint dysfunction. (Duration: 3-6 months)
