Botox® is one of the most common nonsurgical cosmetic treatments, as about 11 million people around the world have used it. In addition to being a highly effective wrinkle-reducer, Botox is FDA-approved to calm the eye muscles. If your eyelid keeps twitching and you’re over it, Botox is more than just a beauty fix.
Visit with Leslie at one of our Wrinkle Fairy offices in Arlington Heights, Gold Coast Chicago, Oakbrook Terrace, or Naperville, Illinois, to reap all of the benefits Botox offers.
Eye spasms, also called blepharospasm, often begin gradually. You might experience uncontrollable and excessive eyelid twitching or forced eyelid closure in one or both of your eyes. Eye spasms may develop as a result of fatigue, bright lights, caffeine, alcohol, eye irritation, stress, genetics, or unknown reasons.
As the spasms progress, they can become intense and more forceful, negatively affecting your line of vision, self-confidence, or overall quality of life. Sometimes jaw clenching or facial spasms accompany eye spasms.
Botox uses botulinum toxin to eliminate eye spasms by temporarily relaxing overactive muscles around your eyes, giving them (and you) a much-needed break.
These treatments are quick, happen every few months, and may even be covered by your insurance if they’re needed for medical reasons. Botox injections are common treatments for eye spasms, as only small qualities of the botulinum toxin are necessary to stop involuntary eye muscle movements.
Eye spasms aren’t the only conditions Botox injections help treat. A comprehensive list of medical concerns Botox can eliminate includes:
Botox can help you look younger by relaxing muscles responsible for facial expressions and eliminating lines and wrinkles associated with them.
Botox injections for treating eye spasms are simple and fast. Leslie numbs the area, if necessary, and injects botulinum toxin into the muscles near your eyes to relax them and eliminate undesirable movements. The treatment is fast and painless. Its effects typically last for several months, but repeat injections can eliminate blepharospasm long term.
Wrinkle Fairy also offers Botox to reduce fine lines, lax skin, and other common signs of aging. Leslie can add in facial fillers, laser resurfacing, thread lifts, vampire facials and facelifts, Diamond Glow treatment, and CoolTone® or CoolSculpting® to achieve your cosmetic and body sculpting goals.
