Botox Specialist

What is Botox?

Botox is an injectable featuring the botulinum toxin, which relaxes muscle activity and smooths the lines and wrinkles in your face. You usually repeat this treatment every few months to maintain your results.

Botox is a good option if you want to diminish the appearance of:

• Crow’s feet
• Frown lines on the forehead
• Lines between the eyebrows
• Neck wrinkles

What happens during a Botox treatment?

You can receive Botox injections in the office. You start with a personalized consultation where your dermatologist reviews your medical history and performs a skin assessment.

Next, they numb your treatment area with an anesthetic cream or cold pack and then use a fine needle to insert the Botox substance underneath your skin gently. The doctors may lightly massage the area to distribute the substance evenly and achieve the most aesthetically pleasing results.

What can I expect after Botox treatment?

After your appointment, you can go home right away and resume most of your normal activities. You may experience slight swelling or puffiness in the treatment area.

While Botox injections generally aren’t painful, your skin may feel sensitive to the touch for several hours after your appointment.

Botox results are usually visible within 24 to 48 hours. Expect to continue to notice improvements in your skin over the next couple of weeks.

Results from Botox usually last about three to four months, sometimes longer. At that point, you can schedule an appointment for another injection.
