How Does Botox® Work?
Botox® works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that contribute to the formation of wrinkles. By preventing these muscles from contracting, Botox® softens existing lines and helps prevent new ones from forming.
What Areas Can Botox® Treat?
Botox® is most commonly used to address wrinkles in the upper third of the face, including:
- Frown lines (between the brows)
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
- Lip Flip
The Botox® Treatment Experience
- Consultation: During your consultation, our experienced injector will discuss your goals, assess your facial anatomy, and determine if Botox® is the right treatment for you.
- The Procedure: A small amount of Botox® is injected precisely into targeted areas using a fine needle. The procedure is typically quick and well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort.
- Recovery: You can resume your normal activities immediately after the treatment. Some patients may experience mild swelling, redness, or minor bruising at the injection site, which usually resolves within a few days.
Botox® Results
- Onset of Action: You may begin to see visible results within a few days of your treatment, with optimal results generally achieved within 7-14 days.
- Long-lasting Effects: The effects of Botox® typically last for 3-4 months, at which point the muscles gradually regain movement.
- Natural-looking Results: Botox® is designed to relax muscles, not paralyze them. This allows for natural-looking facial expressions while effectively softening wrinkles.
