Botox is an important tool in our fight against ageing. We have been using Botox successfully to treat wrinkles, sunken eyes, lip reshaping, aging hands and facial creases. Botox is the name of a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. Smiling, frowning, squinting and even chewing - basically any facial movement can lead to some of the most common signs of aging: wrinkles. Injecting Botox into a facial muscle weakens the muscle and its associated contraction thus stopping the frequent creasing of the skin.

It is a non-invasive procedure which takes only a few minutes and doesn't require anesthesia. Botox is injected with a fine needle into specific muscles with only minor discomfort to the patient. Usually it takes three to seven days to take full effect and lasts for four to six months. Botox is most often used on forehead lines, crow's feet (lines around the eye), and frown lines but cannot be used on wrinkles caused by sun damage. Fillers are used to restore youthful fullness to face, enhance shallow contours or soften facial creases and wrinkles.

Dermal fillers have been called "liquid facelifts" because they offer many of the benefits of a surgical facelift without the downtime. Fillers provide volume and fill in cheek and under eye hollows, enhance cheekbones, lips and the chin area. These treatments aren't permanent and must be repeated. Most fillers fill lines and wrinkles in less than 30 minutes. Injectable fillers or collagen stimulators are the latest weapon when it comes to fighting the visible signs of aging. There are many types of fillers now available to fill in skin lines and creases to restore a youthful appearance.
