Botox

What is BOTOX® Cosmetic and how does it work?

Botox Cosmetic is a purified protein that is administered in a simple, nonsurgical procedure to temporarily reduce moderate to severe frown lines between the brows - in people ages 18-65. Very low doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic are administered via a few tiny injections directly into the muscles responsible for the frown lines between the brows. By blocking the release of the chemical that causes these muscles to contract, BOTOX® Cosmetic enables them to relax, so the skin appears smoother.

What is a BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment like?

BOTOX® Cosmetic is administered during a simple, 10 to 20 minute treatment in our office. Tiny injections are administered directly into the muscles that cause frown lines between the brows. Often called a "lunchtime" procedure, treatment is brief and requires no recovery. No anesthesia is required, although sometimes your physician will choose to numb the area with a cold pack or anesthesia cream prior to injecting. Localized pain, infection, inflammation, tenderness, swelling, redness, and/or bleeding/bruising may be associated with the injection.

How long can I expect my results to last?

Within 1-2 days, you may notice a softening in the appearance of your frown lines. The area between your brows may continue to improve for up to a month. Visible results have been shown to last up to 4 months.
