BOTOX
Looking to Slow Down the Signs of Aging?
Botox® and Dysport® are excellent options for treating and preventing fine lines, wrinkles, and deep facial furrows. These treatments are particularly effective for addressing wrinkles in the upper face, including crow’s feet (lines around the eyes), horizontal forehead lines, and frown lines between the eyebrows. They work by relaxing the muscles that cause these lines, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Beyond Wrinkle Treatment: The Versatility of Botox and Dysport
Botox® and Dysport® offer numerous off-label uses beyond wrinkle treatment. These include addressing neckbands, horizontal neck lines (“tech neck”), chin dimples, hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), jawline slimming, TMJ relief, jaw clenching, and teeth grinding.
Despite the term “toxin” sounding intimidating, these treatments use a purified protein to moderate muscle movement. Botox is the most widely studied drug globally, even more than ibuprofen.
During your complimentary consultation, we’ll assess your needs and determine the appropriate dosing based on your muscle mass and strength in the target area, with the expertise of a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Whether you’re in your 20s aiming to prevent aging signs or discovering Botox later in life, it can help you achieve a natural glow and turn back the hands of time.

FAQ
HOW MUCH DOES BOTOX/DYSPORT COST?
Botox costs $15/u. While there are a wide variety of treatments that use Botox, treatments are usually between 20-50 units and depends on many factors including age, area being treated, strength of muscle, etc. Customized dosing will be based on the physicians recommendation and will be discussed in at your appointment.
IF I SCHEDULE AS A NEW PATIENT CAN I GET BOTOX THE DAY OF MY CONSULTATION?
Absolutely, I always leave time for treatment after a consultation!
WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?
Botox® and Dysport® begin to take effect within 24-48 hours, with full results visible after two weeks. At that point, we’ll schedule a follow-up, either virtually or in person, to assess the customized treatment. If necessary, we’ll adjust your dose for optimal results. These treatments are most effective when your injector tailors the dosage to your unique needs.
DO I NEED TO GET BOTOX FOREVER ONCE I START?
Most people love the look Botox provides but you only need to get it as long as you want.
HOW LONG WILL MY RESULTS LAST?
Results from Botox and Dysport are not permanent. Effects usually last about 3-4 months. Most of my patients come quarterly to see me for treatment and prevention.
If you are getting Botox/Dysport for facial slimming, TMJ, jaw clenching, or excessive sweating, typically those treatments last longer usually 5-7 months because they require a larger amount of units.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED TO SEE RESULTS?
Botox and Dysport will only need one single treatment to show results. However, results last about 3-4 months, therefore treatments can continue upon this timeline for as long as the patient desires. Most of my patients come four times a year for best prevention of wrinkles.
DO BOTOX INJECTIONS HURT?
Botox/Dysport is relatively painless! It is several little pokes using the smallest needle out there! The whole treatment takes less than 10 minutes total to do but we do apply topical numbing for those who would like it.
WILL BOTOX MAKE ME LOOK CRAZY?
Absolutely not! Actually, you will look exactly like you but much more refreshed, smoothed, and glowing!
