About Botox

Botox works by temporarily blocking the signal between the nerve and the muscle. The muscle is no longer able to contract, thus relaxing and softening the overlying wrinkles. When placed properly, it creates a refreshed and rested appearance.

Studies show that when Botox treatment is done on a regular basis, the muscles learn not to contract, and less Botox is needed to achieve the same results. Botox is proven to improve dynamic wrinkles and creases within 1-2 weeks of injection.

The success of your Botox treatment depends upon the skills and expertise of the injector. Dr. Rachel White is a board certified dermatologist who has the skills, experience and artistic eye to provide you with the desired refreshed results.
