BOTOX is a neurotoxin that inhibits the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, blocking the communication between neurons and muscle cells. In other words, BOTOX inhibits the contraction of the muscles, preventing dynamic wrinkles from forming. Baby Botox is the use of smaller doses of BOTOX in certain areas of the face. This method provides a subtle and softer result. Your skin will appear smoother, but muscle movement will not be as affected.
Who is a good candidate?
A good candidate is someone in their 20s and 30s, who wants to prevent fine lines and wrinkles and desires a very natural result.
Where is Baby Botox administered?
It can be administered on the forehead, crow’s feet, upper lip lines, chin wrinkles, necklines, elevens, and bunny lines.
What’s the difference between “Baby Botox” and “Regular Botox”?
With Baby Botox techniques, the results will be more subtle. Also, the result may not last as long due to the lower dosage. By using lower doses, your facial expressions are maintained giving you a more natural look. The Longevity of a Botox treatment is directly related to the dosage.
