Botox Injections

Considering Botox® injections?

Whether you are considering Botox® for the first time, or are looking for more professional skin treatment and care. We encourage you to schedule an appointment with Dr. Bradford Patt and our staff at the Houston Center for Facial Plastic Surgery. Dr. Patt is an ABFPRS board-certified facial cosmetic and reconstructive surgery specialist who is privileged to offer patients high-quality Botox facial treatment services in Houston.

Perhaps one of the BEST ways to experience Dr. Patt’s professional care in providing Botox skin treatments in Houston, is to visit our clinic and join us during one of our monthly Cosmetic Day Events on Fridays at the Houston Center for Facial Plastic Surgery. However, before having Botox injections, it’s always best to understand how the treatment can help your skin look smooth and rejuvenated.

What is a Botox Injection?

Botox belongs to a category of medications using various formations of a toxin known as botulinum. It is very carefully administered via injections to a specific area medically targeted on the face. This causes a temporary paralysis of muscle activity. This toxin is a microbe produced toxin which is the same microbe that causes a type of food poisoning known as botulism. However, its ultimate function is to immobilize muscle tension and over-activity. When muscles are relaxed, the skin also relaxes and begins to look supple. Ultimately, frown lines and wrinkles gradually diminish from the face.
