Now is the time to make an appointment if you are considering treating yourself to Botox this holiday season. With a myriad of special events and preparations filling up our calendars at this time of year, we all need to take the opportunity to pamper ourselves a little. Between the parties, preparing to welcome guests, and holiday travel, remember to allow enough time for Botox to work its magic!
The Gold Standard
Botox is the gold standard for anti-aging injections. It smoothes away the appearance of forehead wrinkles, frown lines, crow’s feet, and chin dimpling. Botox works by blocking signals to the nerve endings in the forehead and other injected areas, allowing the skin to relax and smooth out. This younger-looking and rejuvenated appearance usually lasts three to four months.
Botox Treatments at Boca Raton Plastic Surgery Center
Boca Raton Plastic Surgery Center offers Botox injections in several facial areas, depending on the specific needs and goals of the patient. In addition to the popular forehead and crow’s feet areas, Botox injections in the chin can reduce the appearance of dimpling to create a more contoured jawline. A Botox brow lift addresses the “number 11 lines” between the eyebrows for a more youthful and wide awake appearance. Small amounts of Botox injected into the upper lip muscles can create the appearance of fuller lips, enhancing the natural shape and contours of the lips. These treatments are very customized for each patient. We also offer Botox injections for patients with TMJ. Botox injected into the jawline helps relax the muscles, effectively reducing jaw pain and tension.
When will I see results?
Botox begins to work in 2-3 days. However, optimal results may take as long as two weeks to see. Botox injections typically take 10-15 minutes, making treatments very convenient to squeeze into busy schedules. There is no downtime to worry about and few side effects. Some patients may experience slight bruising or redness at the injection sites for a couple of days. Other people have no visible signs from the injections.
