BOTOX® Cosmetic is the most popular cosmetic procedure in the country and one of our most requested services. Quick, safe and effective, BOTOX® reduces or eliminates facial lines and wrinkles for up to six months with no down time and little to no discomfort. Through a series of tiny injections, BOTOX® gives you a rejuvenated look by smoothing crow’s feet beneath the eyes, frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal lines across the forehead, worry lines around the mouth, and lines on the neck.
In addition to smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles, BOTOX® may be useful for treating migraine headaches, excessive sweating, chronic back and jaw pain, and muscle spasms.
Immediately following the BOTOX® treatment, some patients may experience mild bruising, which will go away shortly. You will see your wrinkles begin to fade within 24 hours, with continued improvement over the next 5 days. The effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic typically lasts up to four moths, although many have reported results lasting up to a full year. After several BOTOX® treatments, the results may be prolonged.
BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment will relax the muscles in your face and soften the skin, giving you a more relaxed and youthful appearance. For optimum results, many patients choose to use BOTOX® in conjunction with other types of skin rejuvenation.

There are options besides hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid (Juvederm, Restylane, and similar) are the most popular and longest lasting options for lip injections. However, there are a few other options available to you, depending on your specific needs. You can choose to have collagen injected, however it requires you to have four weeks’ worth of allergy tests due to it being extracted from bovine hides. You can even have fat harvested from other parts of your body and injected into your lips, but due to your body reabsorbing the injected fat this tends to be a short-lived fix.
You can control how much is injected
When you choose a hyaluronic acid filler, you can choose how full you want your lips to be. This prevents the huge ‘duck lips’ that can result when too much is injected. During the procedure, you can see your lips and determine how much filler you would like them to contain.
It’s not ridiculously expensive
Most people think procedures like lip injections are as pricey as standard plastic surgery procedures. However, most lip injections in doctors’ offices cost roughly about $600. Keep in mind you get what you pay for; don’t cut corners when it comes to procedures performed on your face.
They are not considered surgery
Ever wonder why lip injections are simply done in a doctor’s office with a topical anesthetic? This is because they are not considered surgery due to the fact that fillers are injected and not implanted.
It does have risks
No medical procedure is without risks. Side effects of lip injections range from redness and bruising to lumps and asymmetrical features. This is why it is so important to choose a doctor whom you can trust to perform the procedure.
A joyful life is full of smiles and laughter, but it is okay to not want the fine lines it leaves behind. If your problem area is around the mouth, Juvederm is excellent at reducing the appearance of laugh lines. Juvederm is made of hyaluronic acid, which is a protein that naturally occurs in our skin. This ingredient is a hot trend in skin care because of how effective it is at hydrating and softening skin into a more youthful, supple appearance. This injection is quite gentle, resulting in less bruising compared to other products. Because Juvederm involves injecting a naturally occurring protein back into the body, it works with what you have, making your results as natural-looking as possible. The results can last up to nine months.
Forehead and Crow’s Feet: Botox
For the more dramatic signs of aging that occur around the eyes and forehead, Botox is incredibly effective. It can even be used to prevent the spread of these wrinkles if you catch them early on. Botox is made of botulinum toxin type A, which blocks the chemical acetylcholine which ultimately paralyzes muscles and makes the skin appear smoother and younger. Botox is also helpful in treating other conditions like hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating. Results last for up to four months and require upkeep after the initial procedure, but it is great for rejuvenating aging skin.

Botox can help to smooth the wrinkles and fine lines in your face. This can make you look younger and have great looking skin. However, the botox that was injected into your face can wear off. If it is not retouched, these wrinkles and fine lines can reemerge. This may leave you wondering when you should have a botox retouch. Here are a few of the signs that it is time to have one done.
You Aren’t Happy With the Results
It takes 10 to 14 days after an injection for the full results of the botox to become apparent. However, the botox may not settle into the places you were hoping to treat as well as you would like. If you aren’t happy with the results after an injection, and have waited 10 to 14 days for the botox to settle, you can have a retouch done quickly to fill in the areas that may need more word done to them.
Your Wrinkles are Re-Emerging
One of the signs that it is time for a botox retouch is that your wrinkles begin to reemerge. It may take 10 to 14 days after the initial treatment for them to go away. However, once this happens, the botox should last for three to four months. Once the wrinkles start to come back, it is time to re-inject.
You Have More Muscle Movement
Botox can give you a frozen face sort of effect. You may feel some stiffness when you make facial expressions, due to the fillers in place. As the fillers wear off, you may feel less of this stiffness. This is another sign that it may be time to have a botox retouch done.

After seeing the improvements that Botox can make to the appearance, patients frequently ask how often they can receive Botox injections. Here is a bit of information to make that determination easier:
How long does Botox last?
Botox is not a permanent way to alter the appearance of wrinkles and lines. The blockage of the nerve signals is only temporary. Over time, the Botox treatment wears off, and the signal disruption is no longer in place.
The results from a Botox injection usually last up to 4 months. Before you receive your first injection, your physician will discuss the potential results of the treatment. In addition, he or she may start with a lower dosage of the medication to determine how your body will respond to the treatment. If lower dosages are applied, the Botox treatment will wear off more quickly.
If you start to see wrinkles and lines resurfacing, their appearance is a good indication that it’s about time to schedule another appointment for treatment.
Muscle Training
Patients who regularly receive Botox may notice that with consistent treatments, their facial muscles become trained by the therapy. Due to this tissue acclimation, you may be able to extend the periods between your injections. Still, due to the dramatically positive results that can be achieved with Botox, you may be anxious to return for the next scheduled treatment.
Although Botox is safe, abuse of the treatment is not recommended, it is suggested that a hiatus of three to four months between treatments.

Botox
Botox focuses on relaxing the muscles that cause those troublesome frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. Squinting, concentrating, or even focusing can cause the muscles in your face to contract- which causes your skin to fold creating wrinkles and fine lines. Once injected, Botox temporarily reduces the muscle activity in the face. After, the patient will notice their crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles begin to smooth out. Depending on the area, Botox can last anywhere from 3-4 months. If you decide to repeat injections in the trouble areas, over time, the lines and wrinkles may often appear less severe due to the muscles becoming trained to relax.
Juvederm
Juvederm is a soft tissue filler that concentrates on filling up those little sunken places on your face by adding more volume. Depending on the formulation, Juvederm is approved to lift cheeks, smooth smile lines, plump the lips, and much more. Many enjoy the long lasting, natural looking results. Juvederm fillers are made from hyaluronic acid which is a natural substance found in the body. Hyaluronic acid is a moisture-binding ingredient that helps plump the skin, keeps skin hydrated, and adds volume.
