Few injectables and fillers treatments are as well-known as Botox®. Since it was FDA-approved in 2002 for cosmetic treatment of frown lines (11s), Botox has become a household name and the most-used medical cosmetic treatment in the world. Botox is a powerful neuromodulator that relaxes targeted muscles to achieve the desired result, from smoothing lines and wrinkles to shrinking overworked muscles. At pēkomd® cosmetic surgery center, we offer Botox injections for a wide selection of cosmetic treatments at our Toledo, OH, clinic.
Botox uses botulinum toxin type A as the active ingredient, which is a biological agent that will block the nerve signals to the muscle, causing it to relax temporarily. This effect can help smooth lines and wrinkles that appear when the muscles contract, but it can also be used for other treatments. Botox can relax muscles that cause excess perspiration, or hyperhidrosis, as well as muscles that affect the shape of the face.
Dr. Peter Koltz is a double fellowship trained and board certified plastic surgeon who can expertly utilize the power of Botox injections. His extensive understanding of facial aesthetics and the benefits of Botox can ensure you get the best results from your Botox treatments.
