What is Botox®?

Botox® Cosmetic is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the look of both moderate to severe crow’s feet lines and frown lines between the eyebrows in adults. It can also help smooth the look of lines on the forehead, help relax your muscles when you grind your teeth, soften the orange peel like-skin on your chin and makes the down-turned corners of your mouth smile upwards again.

How long is my Botox® appointment?

Typically it will be a 30-minute appointment from start to finish. The actual treatment itself only takes 10 minutes. But first you’ll have photos taken, and then the area to be treated will be numbed up with some ice.

What should I avoid before and after my Botox® appointment?

Before your visit try to avoid any skin treatments such as laser or microdermabrasion. After your Botox treatment, do not lay down or bend over forwards for 4 hours. This may cause the product to move to a different area on your face and have unintended effects. Also, avoid the sun and the gym for 24 hours.

When will I see results?

The full effect of the Botox® treatment can take up to 14 days, but typically within 7-10 days, you start seeing the results.

How long does Botox® last?

Typically, botox will metabolize out of your body completely by the 6-month mark. However, as it metabolizes, the effects of botox will lessen over time. It is recommended that you get regular maintenance touch-ups every 3-4 months so you keep the full effect of the initial treatment.

Who should get Botox®?

Anyone over the age of 18 is an eligible candidate. If you have migraines, headaches, or grind your teeth then you might be a candidate for Botox treatment as well. However, if you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or allergic to any of the materials in Botox, then you are not a good candidate for this treatment.

How much does Botox® treatment cost?

Typically the fee for Botox® is $300 per area.
