How Botox Works
Botox, short for Botulinum Toxin, is a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for creating dynamic wrinkles. When injected into specific facial areas, it reduces muscle activity. This in turn smoothes out existing wrinkles and prevents new ones from forming.
Botox is used in many areas including:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Lip lines
Botox can also be used for pain management and for managing conditions like chronic migraines.

What to Expect at Your Botox Appointment
Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation. We’ll discuss your aesthetic goals, assess your facial structure, and review your medical history. This allows us to create a personalized treatment plan.
Preparation
On the day of your treatment, we’ll start by cleansing the treatment areas thoroughly. If you’re concerned about discomfort, we can apply a topical numbing cream. We’ll also take pre-treatment photos to help track your progress.
Treatment
Using a very fine needle, we’ll inject the Botox into the targeted muscles. The entire process typically takes just 15-30 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated.
Post-Treatment
Immediately after the injections, we may apply light pressure or ice to minimize any potential bruising. We’ll also provide you with detailed aftercare instructions. Most patients can return to normal activities immediately after treatment. You may notice some slight redness or swelling at the injection sites, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
Follow-up
We’ll schedule a follow-up appointment for about two weeks after your treatment. This allows us to assess your results and make any necessary adjustments.
Results typically begin to appear within 3-7 days, with full effects visible after 14 days. Your refreshed, more youthful appearance can last 3-4 months, after which you can return for a touch-up treatment.
