Botox®
REFRESH YOUR LOOK WITH BOTOX®
Facial Expressions are created by numerous facial muscles contracting at different times and to different degrees; causing the overlying skin to wrinkle and fold. Excess facial muscle contractions contribute to many undesired facial wrinkles and folds. Some of these wrinkles and folds may be cosmetically unattractive and misinterpreted as conveying anger, concern, sadness, or fatigue. Selective weakening of the particular facial muscle (or group of muscles) responsible for the unwanted wrinkled area with Botulinum Toxin has been shown to improve overall facial appearance as well as improve malpositioned changes of the overlying soft tissue.

Botox® injections are very safe and there have been no long-term side effects or health hazards related to its use. Dr. Jordan was the second physician in Canada given a license to use Botulinum Toxin in 1987. He has injected over 10, 000 people for a variety of disorders. In the early years it was used primarily for blinking disorders and crossed eyes. Throughout the 90’s and over the last few years it’s use in the cosmetic reasons ( wrinkles ) has increased dramatically.
