What Is Botox®?
Botox® is a Health Canada cosmetic treatment that helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
If you’re looking to smooth forehead lines, crow’s feet, or frown lines, Botox® injections provide a non-surgical, minimally invasive solution with proven results.
Botox® is derived from botulinum toxin, temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles that cause wrinkles. By blocking nerve signals, the muscles relax, reducing the appearance of fine lines and preventing new wrinkles from forming.

Our Vancouver Botox® Clinic is run by Susan MacKenzie, R.N. who is a Certified Nurse Injector that has been an Operating Room nurse for 42 years.
She has been working in a private OR for the past 27 years where the main focus is cosmetic plastic surgery, primarily facial surgery. She is therefore very well versed in facial anatomy and what areas are best treated with BOTOX COSMETIC® and dermal fillers such as JUVEDERM®.
Susan has been injecting since 2001 in the office of Dr. Benjamin Gelfant. With his retirement, she is very pleased to now be working with Dr. Esta Bovill.
Because she has worked and still is working with surgeons so closely, she can be very honest during the consultation process as to what procedure would be most beneficial and give the most natural result.
