Consultation and Treatment
Muscle relaxing injections are a safe and reliable treatment. Prior to treatment all patients are required to complete a medical history form and consent form. There is ample opportunity to ask any questions you are not sure about.
During treatment the Doctor administers small amounts of botulinum toxin to the targeted muscle using an ultra fine needle.
The results of the treatment are usually visible within 3-14 days. After 3-4 months the results will fade and return to their former state. Repeated treatments weaken the muscles and can lead to prolonged effects and less frequent treatments.
Maintenance treatments are required if you wish to maintain the results.
