Botox

Botox® $10 per unit

Botox® is a neurotoxin injectable treatment that is the most effective way to temporarily improve the appearance of wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions like smiling, squinting, or frowning. Results are excellent in many age groups, softening existing lines and preventing new lines from forming. During your initial consultation, we will discuss your treatment goals and work together to outline the treatment plan best suited to meet these goals.

What Areas Can Botox® Treat

There are a lot of different and exciting uses for Botox, like its many cosmetic uses! For example, Botox can be used for treating facial fine lines and wrinkles, taking years off of a patient’s face.

  • Frown lines, forehead lines, worry lines, laugh lines, and other facial lines
  • Crow’s feet
  • Asymmetry of the brow
  • Mouth corners that droop
  • Wrinkles around the lips and in other areas
  • Neck banding
  • And more

What are the Side Effects of Botox®?
The injections work by reducing nerve impulses and muscle activity in the treated area to help it relax, and in turn, issues like fine lines and wrinkles are softened. With line lines and wrinkles, after treatment, they won’t come back so easily for a long while, and this can be extended with regular treatments! The effects are temporary and harmless to the patient which means Botox is very safe. Let’s get into this topic a bit more.

Before the procedure, the practitioner you see can numb the area with a topical treatment or ice, and during the procedure, there’s typically only minimal discomfort. Clients should expect some slight discomfort, minimal bruising, and some swelling, but that’s about it.

After the procedure, the client won’t need very much recovery time at all and can return to their regular activities after just a few short hours! It’s rare for a client to experience any complications, and the complications are temporary and minor at worst. Botox is one of the most extensively studied medical aesthetic treatments ever and has been evaluated in hundreds of peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals. Also, Botox is approved by many dozens of countries and counting. Botox is very safe, and you can be sure of that.

How long does Botox® last?
You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with full results in 30 days. Results typically last up to four months for moderate to severe frown lines. Remember that results vary from client to client, so your next appointment will be planned based on your results and aesthetic goals.
