it’s time to say goodbye to wrinkles

BOTOX® Starting at $13/unit!

A combination of factors can cause facial lines. It’s not just about the cellular changes that may occur, or reduction of collagen, or damage caused by free radicals from the sun and the environment. Repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines. BOTOX® Cosmetic works beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults – to help them look better.

What is Botox?

Getting BOTOX® Cosmetic is a simple, safe procedure that can rejuvenate your skin and improve your appearance. It can reduce superficial facial wrinkles, deep wrinkles, and it is the most used minimally invasive facial enhancement procedure. Using BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections for wrinkles and fine lines has become very popular. The process involves the injection of Botulinum toxin type A, a neuromodulator that temporarily inhibits muscle contraction.

When you work with our injector to set up an effective BOTOX® treatment plan you can see improvement with several types of facial wrinkles, including:

  • Nasolabial folds

  • Marionette lines

  • Forehead lines

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

BOTOX® injections can also be paired with other cosmetic treatments to help rejuvenate your face, without ever having to have surgery. You can also pair your BOTOX® treatments with restorative dermal fillers like Juvederm.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Before starting, we will explain the procedure, discuss potential risks, and ensure your comfort. The treatment is quick with no downtime. Possible post-treatment effects include redness, swelling, or bruising. During the procedure, you can expect a few small injections that will target the specific areas you'd like to address. Our skilled professionals will guide you through each step, ensuring you feel at ease throughout the process. It's important to note that the effects of the treatment are often well worth any minor discomfort you may experience. After the session, you are free to resume your daily activities without any need for downtime. Should you have any concerns or questions post-treatment, our team is always available to assist you. Remember, your satisfaction and well-being are our top priorities.

  • The results of Botox cosmetic treatment typically become noticeable after 7-10 days, with full effects visible by day 14. These effects include a reduction in wrinkles and fine lines, resulting in smoother skin.

    The Botox procedure is safe and involves minimal downtime, though temporary side effects like redness, swelling, and bruising may occur after injections. These effects usually subside within a few hours.

    Botox Cosmetic Injections can target various areas of the face and neck, such as crow’s feet, forehead, upper lip, and between the eyebrows. Special care is needed for treatments like the forehead to prevent heaviness or drooping, requiring attention to individual anatomy.

  • Results typically endure for 3-6 months, varying based on personal factors such as skin type, muscle engagement, and the treated area's size. To optimize outcomes, we suggest scheduling follow-up sessions every 3-6 months.

  • Since the effects of BOTOX® start to fade after a few months, you’ll generally need to set up follow-up appointments every 3 months or so.

  • Your provider may give you specific botox aftercare instructions. Here is what you can expect to avoid following your botox injections.

    No Strenuous Activities and Exercise

    You need to allow the ingredients in your botox injections to settle into your body. Plan to avoid doing any exercise or strenuous activity for 24 hours after Botox.

    Touching the Injection Site

    If you are new to botox injections, you may be tempted to massage the injection site. Resist that desire and leave the area alone.

    Your skin needs time to recover from the treatment. You will slow down your healing process if you aggravate the injection site by rubbing or massaging the area. After 6 hours, you may gently wash the injection site with soap and water, but not before then.

    Avoid Napping Face Down

    Most people recover from botox within 2-4 hours. You might feel like taking a nap after your treatment, but you should avoid lying down for the first 4 hours.

    While you are sleeping you may inadvertently roll onto your stomach and press your face against your bed or pillow. This may cause the Botox serum to slide into your eyes and cause drooping eyelid.

    Give yourself something to do in that first 4-hour window and then you can certainly take a nap. If you can sleep face up for the next few days following your Botox treatment, even better.

    No Drinking

    One of the most important post-botox instructions is to avoid drinking for at least 1 day following your botox treatment. It is in your best interest to avoid alcohol to reduce your risk of negative side effects including bruising.

    Don't Take Blood Thinners

    Consult with your family doctor before resuming any blood thinning medications. If possible, do not take any blood thinners for several days after your Botox injections.

    Avoid Exposure to Heat

    After your Botox treatment, you need to avoid being out in the heat, tanning, self-tanning beds, or heat lamps for 72 hours following your treatment.  You should not expose yourself to excessive heat until all the redness and swelling has gone from the injection site.

    No Facials

    Botox aftercare includes avoiding any facials, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion for a minimum of 10 days following your procedure. If you are unsure about how long to wait before having a certain procedure, talk to your Botox provider.

    Remember that your Botox results will begin to appear 3-7 days after your treatment. Give your face time to recover before undergoing other treatments.

  • While any time is a great time to start treatment, we recommend starting earlier in the late 20s-30s as a preventative measure so those deep lines don’t even get a chance to form.
