Botox is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments available, administered to over 7 million individuals in more than 70 countries. The treatment applications for Botox are wide ranging, but at our Manhattan and Long Island surgery offices we typically use Botox to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes.

Botox is a neuromuscular blocking injectable drug, which basically means it stops the transmission of chemicals that tell muscles to move. When you apply Botox to those tiny facial muscles that cause your face to wrinkle, it allows the skin to flatten out and appear younger. As an added benefit, Botox can also stop the occurrence of migraine headaches.
