Botox Cosmetic

For over 10 years, BOTOX® treatments have been used safely and effectively to treat many ophthalmological and neurological disorders. Thousands of patients receive BOTOX® treatments each year for a wide variety of conditions, and it is quickly becoming a popular treatment for reversing the visible signs of aging and reducing wrinkles.

BOTOX® Cosmetic targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines—the repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, smiling, and raising the eyebrows over the years. Your specialist will inject these muscles with BOTOX® Cosmetic to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice that the frown lines between your brows, crow’s feet lines, and forehead lines temporarily look better.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a technique-sensitive treatment. You can trust BOTOX® Cosmetic to deliver subtle results when you are treated by someone who is licensed, trained and a medical expert in facial anatomy. You’ll look like yourself—only with less noticeable lines. No one should be able to tell you’ve had anything done.

The number of men choosing treatments like BOTOX® Cosmetic has risen fast. In the past three years alone, men have received over one million botulinum toxin treatments. When surveyed, the majority of men say they want to look good, and they’re bothered by the changes they see in the mirror. 80% would choose to treat their crow’s feet first, while 74% would prioritize their forehead lines, and 60% would most like to treat their frown lines.

It’s not your age that determines when BOTOX® Cosmetic is right for you; it’s the severity of your lines. In fact, 64% of plastic surgeons report seeing a rise in cosmetic surgery or injectable treatments for patients in their early 30s.

Your specialist will discuss your treatment goals and perform a facial analysis to determine the appropriate treatment areas for you. If the HCP deems you to be an appropriate candidate, the injection may take place on that same day. Some patients report that being injected with BOTOX® Cosmetic feels like a pinch. Your specialist may use ice to numb the treatment area. Or, if you are concerned about discomfort, your specialist may apply a topical numbing cream before administering your treatment.

Treatment requires minimal down time, so you can return to your daily routine immediately after you leave your specialist’s office.

You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with full results in 30 days, with results lasting up to four months for moderate to severe frown lines. Remember that results vary from patient to patient though, so your physician will plan your next appointment based on your results and aesthetic goals.
