    Botulinum Treatment

    BOTOX® is a purified protein derived from the bacterium, Clostridium Botulinum. Using a tiny micro-needle, a very small amount of BOTOX® is injected, very precisely, into several locations on the face typically the vertical lines between your eyebrows, forehead lines, and lines at the corners of your eyes (crow’s feet). BOTOX® injections have been used safely and effectively for over ten years to treat many ophthalmologic and neurological disorders.

    How long does the procedure take?

    Following the consultation, the actual procedure takes less than 15 minutes. Since there is no downtime – you can do it at lunchtime – and no one would know you had it done!

    How does BOTOX® work?

    BOTOX® is injected into a targeted facial expression muscle, blocking impulses from the nerve to the muscle, thereby relaxing the muscle so it does not contract. This causes the overlying skin to become smoother, with fewer lines and wrinkles. After treatment, the skin remains smooth and unwrinkled, while the untreated facial muscles contract in a normal fashion, allowing normal facial expression and feeling to be unaffected.

    How quickly will I see results?

    BOTOX® usually starts relaxing the treated area within several days, but the full effect may not be realized for two weeks.

    How long will BOTOX® last?

    The effects last between 3-4 months on average but everyone is different. We advise our patients to have the first 3 treatments precisely at 12 weeks and the next two treatments precisely at 16 weeks. Typically patients who follow this treatment schedule begin to need less Botox and they increase the time between treatments.

    Testimonials

    I have been a patient of GMC for 30 years. So has my family. For me they are the only health professionals that I would go to. The quality of professional service is very highest and on more than one occasion, the diagnosis and advice I receive has been life altering. I wouldn’t use anyone else.

    - James Berry, Patient

    I have been attending the GMC clinic as a patient since 1986 and especially Dr Ralph Joyce and in that time, totally relied  on them for all my medical requirements . I trust totally their professionalism, approach and advice and they are always the first contact for any medical needs.
