Botox Q&A
If you are looking for a way to address fine lines and wrinkles, you may have thought about Botox. At the same time, you may have some questions before receiving your first botox injection. Some of the most common questions people ask include:
How long does Botox last?
In general, you should expect Botox to last for a few months. There are some situations where Botox will last six months, but there are other situations where Botox may only last for 2 months. During your first injection, it may not last as long as you would like, but future injections will probably last longer.
Is Botox treatment good for my face?
It depends on why you are interested in Botox. Botox is a great option if you are looking for a way to smooth out wrinkles. If you want to remove fine lines and wrinkles from your face, Botox may be an option for you. Schedule our consultation to see if you are a good candidate.
What are the side effects of Botox?
Side effects of Botox are relatively rare, but some of the side effects you may experience include mild bruising, possible eyelid drooping, and the occasional headache. We will review all possible side effects with you before we get started.
How much does botox cost?
There are a lot of factors that will dictate how much botox costs. Some of these factors include the amount of botox required, the number of injection sites, and the nature of the problem we are trying to address. We will always provide you with an estimate before we get started.
What exactly does Botox do?
Botox injections are designed to block specific chemical signals that come from nerves. These chemical signals typically cause your muscles to contract. Therefore, when we use botox, we will cause your muscles to temporarily relax. We can relax the muscles around the eyes and forehead to alleviate wrinkles and lines that might be present.
What are the dangers of Botox?
Serious reactions to Botox are highly unusual. There is a chance that some people could develop an allergic reaction, which could cause them to have trouble breathing; however, we will take all the necessary precautions to minimize the chances of this happening, and we always administer Botox under the supervision of professionals.
What are the benefits of Botox?
There are several significant benefits of Botox. It can be used to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles on your face, but Botox can also be used to treat people who have an overactive bladder, neck spasms, or even a lazy eye. We would be happy to work with you to see if you are a candidate for Botox.
Is Botox safe?
Yes, Botox is very safe. It has been a popular treatment option for many years, and we always administer Botox under the supervision of professionals. That way, we maximize the benefits of this treatment option while also minimizing the chances of complications and side effects.
What are the uses of botox injections?
There are several ways Botox can be used. We can use it to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, but other people are interested in botox to alleviate chronic sweating and address issues related to a lazy eye.
What is Botox made out of?
Botox is a popular medication that is made from a toxin that is produced by bacteria. The name of the bacteria is clostridium botulinum, and that is where the name comes from. Of note, this bacteria also makes toxins that can cause food poisoning, but the toxin can be isolated and purified to form the cosmetic Botox treatment that many people know and love.
What age should you start Botox?
Everyone is in a slightly different situation. The age at which you should start Botox will depend on the reason why you need Botox injections. Botox injections are typically reserved for someone 18 years of age or older, but Botox is typically used in patients starting in their late 20s or early 30s.
