You Can’t Spell “Age” without AGE

Your skin has enemies all over the place. It’s not just smoke and sunlight that can bring on another trip to our Tacoma botox clinic; you can also be prematurely aging your face with the foods you eat. Some foods contain sugars that attach to proteins in your skin to produce Advanced Glycation Endproducts, or AGE’s, which are just as unfortunate as the acronym suggests. These AGE’s rob your skin of its flexibility, bringing on a dullness and brittleness that...

The Beauty Secrets of the Stars

Our Tacoma botox clinic can help you to look your best, but ultimately a big part of beauty is how you feel on the inside. Too many women are haunted by an undue shame about their appearance, comparing their faces to the ones they see on the red carpet and wondering why they seem to be aging more than the big stars of today.

Botox’s Long History of Great Clinical Results

At Botixue Botox clinic in Tacoma, we find clients are often glad to know what a long and respectable history Botox has as a cosmetic treatment. Well over a decade of medical literature has shown it to be both very safe and highly effective, as in this 1999 study appearing in the journal Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. The authors found that frown lines and crow’s feet are especially responsive to Botox treatment; indeed, they write that chemodenervation (i.e. Botox injections)...

It's true; though the FDA has not yet approved the use of Botox for all of the non-cosmetic procedures, we may soon live in a world where the magic of Botox is regularly used to save lives and livelihoods on a...

What About Cosmetic Creams?

There exists in the cosmetic world a number of "Botox cosmetic creams". These offer an alternative to Botox injections that may seem at first to be less invasive and possibly less expensive. However, our Tacoma Botox clinic advises that you take care with any promises made by these products. The fact is that a Botox cream is never going to be as effective as a properly performed injection. It may seem logical that an anti-wrinkle cream should be rubbed into...

The Difference Between Botox and Botulism

You're probably aware that Botox is related to botulism.  Indeed, the process involves injecting your facial muscles with botulinum toxin A, a toxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium.  Some potential customers of our Tacoma Botox clinic therefore come to us with some concerns about the safety of the procedure.  If you share these concerns, we are open to addressing them, and are prepared to put your mind at ease throughout your Botox experience. It’s easy to understand the logic...
