Botox:

Do you have deep wrinkles between your eyebrows or on your forehead? Or perhaps you may have crows feet around the eyes, down-turned corners of the mouth, or thickened neck muscle bands? Fortunately, there is an easy way to correct these imperfections without surgery. Treatment with BOTOX® Cosmetic at Ohio Laser & Wellness Centers can visibly smooth wrinkles between your brows, around your eyes, on your forehead and chin. BOTOX® injections are safe and have been FDA-approved for over 16 years. BOTOX® is administered using several tiny injections directly into the muscles that cause wrinkles. It relaxes the muscles under the skin and causes the underlying skin to become smoother. No anesthesia is required and discomfort is minimal. After treatment with BOTOX®, an improvement can be seen within days and may last up to 3 to 4 months. Some wrinkles, especially in younger patients, may temporarly go away completely while others will be further improved with dermal filler injection. At Ohio Laser & Wellness Centers, your clinician customizes your treatment during your FREE Consultation.

BOTOX® for Excessive Underarm Sweating

At Ohio Laser & Wellness Centers, you can now receive BOTOX for excessive sweating of the underarms. Some individuals are inconvenienced by sweating that is so severe that anti-perspirants are not effective. This leads to drenched clothing at mild temperatures, causing embarrassment at work and social situations. If you suffer from excessive sweating, otherwise known as hyperhidrosis, you may feel held back socially and in your career due to this problem. Now at Ohio Laser & Wellness Centers , BOTOX is available to put this problem to rest. You can get months of normalized or absent underarm sweating through the injection of BOTOX directly into the skin in that area. BOTOX takes effect after approximately 3 days, and is usually maximal after two weeks. It is approximately 90% effective and generally lasts about 6 months, with a range of 3 to 12 months. In a study by Hornberger et al, mean sweat production at 24 weeks was still below 50% of the preinjection level. 92% of patients were satisfied with the treatment at 4 weeks after injection. 50 units per side is the recommended starting dose. Side effects are uncommon and this amount of BOTOX is considered safe.
