If youâve started to notice fine lines or dynamic wrinkles and are looking for a safe, effective way to refresh your appearance â BotoxŸ might be exactly what youâre looking for.
At Pureté Health & Wellness in Etobicoke, our medical team uses a gentle, precision-based approach to Botox treatments, helping clients across Mimico, South Etobicoke, and Mississauga achieve natural-looking results without surgery or downtime.

â What is Botox?
Botox is a purified protein (botulinum toxin type A) that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles responsible for causing expression lines. Itâs one of the most researched and widely used cosmetic treatments in the world â and Health Canada approved.
When injected in small amounts by a skilled provider, Botox softens dynamic wrinkles (caused by movement), leaving your face looking smoother and more refreshed.
đŹ How Does Botox Work?
Facial expressions like smiling, frowning, or squinting activate small muscles that cause skin to crease over time. Botox works by gently blocking the nerve signals to these muscles, allowing the skin to smooth out.
At PuretĂ©, we customize every Botox treatment to your facial anatomy and goals â targeting only the muscles that need it, and preserving your natural expressions.
đŻ What Can Botox Treat?
Botox is incredibly versatile and can treat both cosmetic and therapeutic concerns:
Cosmetic Uses:
Forehead lines

đ€ Who is Botox For?
