Botox Chicago Illinois

As we age lines on our face and forehead become more pronounced. For many years there was no solution. Fortunately advances in medical technology have brought us Botox Cosmetic. 

Botox injections in Chicago relax the small facial muscles that contract to cause the lines in the face. Many patients seeking a Botox treatment in Chicago do so because their eyebrows are contracted making them look angry all the time.

Botox Chicago Patient Review

What is Botox?

Botox is a purified protein that is injected into the tiny muscles in the face and forehead that cause frown lines and wrinkles. The Botox treatment in Chicago then relaxes these muscles and allows the face to return to its normal state.

Most patients begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours for treatment of moderate to severe frown lines. Results may vary.

Some patients report that being injected with BOTOX® Cosmetic feels like a pinch. The actual injection time takes ≈ 10 minutes.
