What Is Botox?
Botox is an injectable treatment that works to relax the muscles beneath the skin that contribute to fine lines and wrinkles. It is injected directly into problem areas where it works from beneath the skin to smooth out the surface of the skin, significantly decreasing the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Through the use of an FDA-approved neurotoxin, the reaction of musculoskeletal nerves is altered, giving you the smooth, wrinkle-free skin you desire.
How Often Can You Get Botox?
On average, the results you will see from this type of treatment are going to last for up to 3 to 4 months so there really isn’t any need to get more treatments during that time. So, you can get this type of injectable every 3 to 4 months. The length of time you’re going to be able to see the results may vary from person to person.
If you would have the treatment and then begin to notice that the muscles in the face aren’t staying as tight, you can safely have another treatment as long as our professionals deem it necessary. Our professionals will work with you to manage your expectations and let you know how often you, specifically, can have this treatment performed.
What To Expect During Treatment
After your initial consultation, you will come in for treatment. There, we will prepare your skin by cleansing and sanitizing it to make sure there is no leftover oil, makeup, or dirt. A topical numbing cream will then be applied to make sure that you will be totally comfortable during the injection process. After the preparation stage, you will receive your injections.
Several injections will be made in the areas you wish to have treated. This happens very quickly and is actually the shortest part of the treatment itself. Altogether, you can expect your session to be about 30 minutes in total. After that, you are free to go about your day as you normally would since it is a non-invasive treatment and requires absolutely no downtime!

Crow’s feet can also be significantly diminished with this treatment, taking years off of your appearance.
The areas of the face that tend to develop lines and wrinkles can be treated. Your skin will appear younger, tighter and you will be free of those lines and wrinkles. The main benefit of this type of treatment is to eliminate those undesirable fine lines and wrinkles that happen naturally as we age. You will appear naturally younger and wrinkle-free following treatment.
