Visit a cosmetic dermatologist in Mississauga, ON to learn more about wrinkle reduction with Botox treatment
Men and women with the signs of aging often complain of vertical lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet around the eyes, and forehead folds that impact their appearance. Most patients in Mississauga, ON who are interested in wrinkle reduction without plastic surgery are urged to ask the team of DermCare about Botox treatment.
How does Botox work?
Botox is a neuromodulator that is formulated with botulinum toxin type A. This is a purified protein used to reduce muscle contractions where injected. By injecting Botox into dynamic wrinkles and folds of the face, it can help smooth the skin’s appearance and reduce the signs of aging dramatically as the muscles relax.
Do I need Botox or dermal fillers?
Another treatment for wrinkles and folds available at DermCare include dermal fillers. But which is best? Dermal fillers work differently from Botox and are made to smooth the appearance of wrinkles and folds by injecting a gel with hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid attracts water molecules and provides more immediate results. However, Botox works differently to obtain similar results on specific areas of the face. To determine which is right for you, it is best to consult a professional during an initial evaluation at DermCare.

Botox is:
- Affordable for many of our patients, especially when compared to plastic surgery

- Fast and long-lasting, often helping patients achieve results for several months before reinjection is required

Use of Botox and Dysport explained by Dr. Faisal Al-Mohammadi
We have so many different types of Botox and basically, they are all botulinum toxin.
Different companies produce botulinum toxin and Botox is much more recognized because the company that created Botox is one of the first few companies that started in the market.
We have Botox, Dysport, Xeomin which are all good and have the same results but with slight differences between them.
The most important point that I have to mention is that the products used should health and adult approved or FDA approved.
There are so many products that are not approved, and these should not be used. The patient who is interested in having Botox injected should know the product that’s been used, and the amount injected.
Are injections of Botox painful?
During injection, our team of professionals may use a topical anesthetic on the skin prior to injecting the medication into the muscles of the face. This ensures comfortable administration of Botox and other cosmetic products used at DermCare.
