Botox

Smooth wrinkles and restore a youthful appearance with our expertly administered Botox treatments.

Botox is an FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator derived from botulinum toxin type A. It temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to reduce dynamic lines—such as forehead creases, glabellar (“11”) lines, and crow’s feet—by inhibiting nerve signals.

1. Benefits of Botox
   • Softens expression lines for a smoother, refreshed look.
   • Fast procedure: takes 10–30 minutes with no downtime.
   • Results last 3–6 months, often extending with regular sessions.
   • Treats non-cosmetic conditions like hyperhidrosis (excess sweating), migraines, jaw clenching (bruxism), and masseter slimming.
2. What to Expect
   • Consultation: Our dermatologist will assess concerns and medical history, including recent neuromodulator treatments or medications.
   • Procedure: Gentle injections using ultra-fine needles—minimal discomfort, no anesthesia.
   • Onset & Duration: Effects begin in 2–4 days, peak by 10–14 days, and typically last 3–6 months.
   • Aftercare: Avoid rubbing the area, strenuous activity, and lying down for 4 hours post-treatment.
3. Side Effects & Safety
   Botox is generally safe in expert hands. Common mild reactions include:
   • Temporary bruising, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site.
   • Headache or flu-like symptoms resolving within days.
   • Rare effects: drooping eyelid, asymmetrical smile, or eyelash changes—these typically resolve over time.
   Serious side effects are highly uncommon but can include:
   • Allergic reaction (rash, difficulty breathing)
   • Muscle weakness, vision issues, trouble swallowing or speaking
