What is BOTOX?

BOTOX is the most well-known wrinkle-relaxing injectable treatments with an active ingredient called Botulinum Toxin A. BOTOX treatments work by blocking the nerve signals that cause the facial muscles to contract. This ultimately results in a localized reduction of muscle activity in the treated area, temporarily smoothing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Contrary to some misinformation, Botulinum Toxin A for wrinkle relaxation are medical-grade toxins derived through a safe process, and among the safest injectables on the market, used by millions of people worldwide.

What are the benefits of BOTOX?

A more youthful, relaxed appearance
Non-surgical, no anesthesia or incisions
Little to no downtime
Painless
Improves self-image and confidence

Who is the ideal candidate for BOTOX injections?

BOTOX treatments can be a wonderful cosmetic solution for anyone who wants to see improvement in their appearance but is not yet ready for a more invasive procedure such as a facelift or blepharoplasty. Good candidates suffer from dynamic wrinkles and fine lines including crow’s feet, frown lines, lip lines, forehead furrows, and neck banding. They should be non-smokers in good health, both physically and psychologically, with realistic expectations for the results.

Dr. Poulos will perform a physical examination of your skin during your consultation and will then make her best recommendations as far as which specific injectables will be the most helpful. In many cases, Dr. Poulos may recommend Xeomin as a great alternative to BOTOX.

Some minor soreness, redness or swelling at the injection site is common, but these symptoms will evaporate within a matter of hours.
