When Botox is mentioned casually, most people know what it is but don’t know much else. What does it do to the facial muscles? How much does it cost? What are the benefits? Luckily, at Medical Center Weight Loss Clinic & Spa, we can answer all of your Botox questions right here!

Botox works by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscles with a small injection needle. What does it accomplish? Botox allows you to smile, frown, and look surprised, etc. without wrinkles appearing on your face and neck. It’s the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment in the United States today.

Do Botox injections actually paralyze the facial muscles? No, that is a common misconception. This can only happen if Botox is used in excess, but the staff and clinical nurses at Medical Center Weight Loss Clinic know just the right amount to inject with the goal of leaving patients looking younger, more rested, and happier.

Right now, our Botox injections are going for only $10 per unit. A small price to pay to fix those lines, wrinkles, creases and drooping skin. Plus, the results are long-lasting (up to 4 months) and begin working as quickly as one week. Is it painful? Not enough where sedation or anesthesia is required. Discomfort is generally minimal and brief as the treatment only takes a few minutes.

You have probably heard horror stories about anti-aging surgeries and injections. You’ve likely seen the pictures and heard the testimonials. But what you need to know is that those are very rare and blown-out-of-proportion cases. And many times, they weren’t performed by a properly trained and certified technician or nurse.

So in the spirit of transparency, we’d like to educate you on what you really need to know about BOTOX, and what it can do for you to turn back the hands of time.

Over 11 million people have had a Botox treatment, and have realized that they do NOT paralyze your face muscles. This is probably the biggest misconception out there, that you won’t be able to make facial expressions – this couldn’t be further from the truth.

We want to make our patients look younger, happier and healthier – not like fake dolls with expressionless faces. You can still smile, look surprised and won’t look like you’ve had work done to your face or neck. These injections improve and soften the look of frown or smile lines, crow’s feet and wrinkles – all with no downtime.

As if that wasn’t great enough, the results have been shown to last as long as 4 months, and you can see results in as little as one week to 10 days!

This product is actually the #1 most-prescribed product of its kind in the U.S., and for good reason.

It just works.

There‘s even a 95% satisfaction rate for most patients surveyed.
