What is Botox? Botox is actually a toxin that was developed in the 1970s. It was originally formulated to treat people with crossed-eyes or eye lid spasms.

What is it traditionally used for? More recently, the creators and suppliers of Botox have enjoyed a tremendous success of the serum as it has won wide-spread acclaim for its ability to temporarily disguise wrinkles in the face. It still, however, is the preferred treatment of many with regard to serious eye problems because it has shown some very real results.

How can Botox help with ongoing eye problems? Botox essentially numbs nerve endings and prevents them from sending various signals to the brain. That helps to relax the muscles, giving those weaker muscles (which are at the root of your eye problems) a chance to work their way up to becoming a bit more successful in controlling lazy eye or stopping the spasms.

Where is the Botox injected? The serum is injected into one or more of the muscles located near the problem area. All or only a portion of these areas can be targeted depending on the symptoms of the patient and the suggestions of the practicing physician.

Does insurance cover Botox? In some cases, particularly with eye disorders, insurance plans do cover Botox therapy. It does, however, vary from plan to plan, so you may want to check with your provider before you make any final decisions. Prices for Botox injections do vary substantially between offices, doctors, and areas of the country, so if you are considering trying Botox on the advice of your doctor, consider your options.

What are the potential risks? As with any medical procedure, there are some risks to be aware of. In a small percentage of Botox patients, there will be bruising, soreness, or hemorrhaging around injection sites. An even small portion of patients can experience flu-like symptoms, drooping or muscle-weakness. People who are not prime candidates for Botox include Multiple Sclerosis sufferers, those who have bleeding disorders, and pregnant or breastfeeding women. Also, discuss any medications you are taking with your physician prior to undergoing Botox treatments.

While it can be quite helpful, Botox is usually only a temporary solution to a problem, so it’s essential that you have your doctor look carefully at the overall problem as well as the side effects and need for ongoing treatment before you make a final decision.

Skin therapy can come in many forms, including injections and fillers. Have you ever noticed how the skin around the eyes and mouth of people begins to sag, wrinkle, or show lines? Fillers or injections can help correct that problem, and bring a smoother, more youthful appearance to the face.

When you are looking in the mirror, what do you notice? Are there smile lines around your eyes? Do you have creases in your forehead from concentrating too hard? Are there stress lines that show up on your face? How about wrinkles? Any sign of aging that makes your face look older and wrinkly has the potential to be helped with a filler or injection.

Youth is fleeting. But the ability to maintain the youthful appearance with the help we offer at Cadiz Laser Spa is sure to make a huge difference. Injections and fillers are usually performed with collagen, a naturally produced protein that can easily be replicated and injected to fill in the areas where the wrinkles or creases are beginning. Another substance that can be used as a filler is restylane, which also is naturally produced.

Having a treatment that involves a laser or a filler can do more than reduce the appearance of wrinkles and creases. It can also make your skin appear and feel smoother and softer. Adding to that, a treatment can also fill in areas that you may have been wishing looked different for years. Some people like using it to make their lips more full, or to give their cheeks more contour. Whatever you want to use it for, our staff is here to help you make the most of the proper procedure, and the pampering you need to enjoy the process.

Choosing one of the treatments that consists of injections and fillers is not a one-time service for most problems.
