Botox: A more youthful and healthier appearance
The botulinum toxin treatment, also known as "Botox," is a non-invasive procedure designed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines on the face. This substance temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for forming expression lines, such as frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. This non-surgical treatment is quick, safe, and widely used by those looking to prevent and treat signs of aging.
Botulinum toxin is a protein derived from the Clostridium botulinum bacteria. When injected in small doses into facial muscles, it temporarily blocks the nerve signal that causes muscle contraction, effectively smoothing the appearance of wrinkles.
This treatment is performed by our team of dermatologists, is quick, and relatively painless. The doctor uses a fine needle to inject botulinum toxin into the specific facial muscles responsible for wrinkles and expression lines.
It is effective in reducing the appearance of forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow’s feet around the eyes. The results of the treatment typically last between three to six months, depending on the patient.
Although botulinum toxin treatment is safe and effective when performed correctly, some side effects may occur. It is important to schedule a consultation with one of our doctors to determine if this treatment is right for you and to achieve the desired results.
At Cali Laser Center, we perform this procedure with precision and professionalism to help you achieve a rejuvenated and natural-looking face.

Duration of results

Other uses of botulinum toxin
Botox, in addition to being widely used for facial rejuvenation, also has therapeutic applications in treatments such as hyperhidrosis and jaw slimming for masseter muscle hypertrophy. In cases of hyperhidrosis, Botox is injected into areas like the armpits, palms of the hands, and soles of the feet, temporarily blocking the nerve signal that stimulates excessive sweat production, providing effective and long-lasting relief. On the other hand, when the masseter muscles become enlarged due to bruxism or intense chewing activity, Botox helps relax and reduce their volume, refining facial contours and softening the “square face” effect. These treatments are safe, minimally invasive, and deliver natural results without affecting the functionality of the treated muscles.
