Botox
Neurotoxins work by reducing the muscles’ activity that causes lines and wrinkles to form over time. The result is a smoother appearance of these areas yet still has some natural movement and the ability to show expressions.
Botox works great for dynamic wrinkles – those wrinkles caused by muscle movements – like those 11’s between your eyebrows, forehead wrinkles, crows feet, lip lines, marionette lines, chin line, and necklace lines on your neck.
Depending on the areas being treated, Botox treatments usually take 15 to 30 minutes. There may be slight redness, swelling, or discomfort at the injection site, but these are temporary. The cost of Botox is variable depending on each patient’s needs.
Note: You may see results from your Botox treatments in a day or two, but the full effect might take up to two weeks, which is why we like to see you again in 2 weeks to be sure you are happy with the results. Wrinkle reduction lasts up to four months. It is recommended you get maintenance injections every 3-4 months to prevent the wrinkles from returning. Maintenance injections will lead to further softening of stubborn wrinkles over time.
