Frequently Asked Questions
What is Botox® Cosmetic?
Botox® Cosmetic is a purified protein that is injected in small doses into the muscles. The injected protein blocks nerve impulses in the muscles and allows the muscle to relax, thereby allowing the skin to gradually smooth out and facial lines to fade.
Where is Botox® used?
Botox® is effective for treating wrinkles that occur with facial expression (dynamic wrinkles) in the area between the eyebrows, forehead, lips, neck and around the eyes (crow’s feet). Botox® can also prevent wrinkles and facial creases from deepening over time by keeping the muscles relaxed.
When does Botox® start to work and how long will it last?
The results of the Botox® injections appear between 2 to 10 days after treatment. The effect will last from 3 to 5 months. The good news is that consecutive treatments can lead to longer results, ultimately reducing the long-term cost.
Who is a good candidate for Botox®?
The best candidates for treatment are individuals between the ages of 25 and 65. Botox® is effective for dynamic wrinkles which occur with facial expression in the area between the eyebrows, on the forehead and around the eyes.
What is the Botox® procedure like?
The procedure takes only 10 to 15 minutes. The injections are done with a micro-needle with minimal discomfort. Most patients compare the sensation to a light pinch. No sedation or anesthesia is required. However, you may be advised to treat the area with an ice pack prior to treatment.
Is there any downtime?
No. You are able to return to normal activities immediately following treatment. However, it is recommended that you avoid exercise, recurrent bending, heavy lifting and massaging of the area for at least 4 hours after treatment.
Are there any side effects of the treatment?
There may be temporary swelling, redness, bruising, headache or local discomfort. Rarely, there may be a mild lowering of the eyelid. This is temporary and resolves in a few weeks. Some patients may have an uneven or incomplete response to Botox®.
