What is Botulinum Toxin (Botox)?
Botulinum toxin (aka Botox, Xeomin, Dysport, etc) is a doctor-administered injectable treatment that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to soften expression lines, slim and contour facial features, and address concerns such as excessive sweating and oily skin.

How It Works
Botulinum toxin works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause specific facial muscles to contract. When injected in precise doses, it relaxes targeted muscles to smooth lines caused by repeated expression, slim bulky areas such as the jaw, and reduce excessive muscle activity. It also acts on the skin's sweat and oil glands, making it effective for managing oily skin, acne, and excessive sweating, with particularly strong results for the underarm area. Treatment plans are fully personalised based on your facial anatomy, movement patterns, and aesthetic goals discussed during consultation.

As with any injectable treatment, there may be potential temporary effects including mild bruising, redness, or tenderness at injection sites. Individual responses may vary, and all treatments at Reborn are administered by licensed doctors following a thorough medical assessment.
