Treatable Areas
There are many areas that Botox is able to successfully treat. However, if you do have a problem area that is not mentioned, feel free to bring it up during your initial consultation so that one of our experts can let you know whether or not that area could also benefit from treatment.
The Forehead
One of the first places that wrinkles begin to form is in the forehead area. This is due to making natural facial expressions daily and is a natural part of the aging process. However, forehead lines can cause a person to appear older than they may be or want to appear. With this type of treatment, those stubborn forehead lines can be safely and quickly smooth away.
Between the Brows
Also known as “frown lines”, the area between the brows can also develop mild to severe wrinkles. With this injectable treatment, those lines, even ones that are considered quite deep, can be smoothed away! Once those wrinkles in this region are smoothed away, you can appear much more youthful and refreshed.
Under the Eyes
Fine lines can develop under the eyes for different reasons and at various ages. These lines can age a person and many would rather have the smoothness in that region that they once did. This type of treatment is going to give you that smooth undereye skin back safely and effectively.
Crow’s Feet
Lines and wrinkles around the outside corners of the eyes are another area that this type of treatment can smooth away. Those lines can add years to one’s appearance but this treatment can significantly diminish the appearance of those wrinkles and lines, giving you an awake, refreshed and more youthful look.
Around the Mouth Region
Lines around the mouth sometimes referred to as “marionette lines” are another area on the face where wrinkles can develop. These wrinkles can run from mild to severe and can be difficult to get rid of using creams alone. With this type of treatment, those lines can be a thing of the past without having to go under the knife.
What to Expect During Botox Treatment
This type of treatment is actually very quick when you compare it to other types of treatments that might be able to give you similar results. After your initial consultation where you will discuss your goals, expectations, and concerns, you will schedule a time to come into the office. Once there, the area or areas you wish to have treated will be cleansed just to make sure there is no residue like oil, dirt, or makeup left on the surface of the skin.
After that, the treatment will be injected directly into those areas. And, that’s it! As soon as you have finished your treatment, you are free to go on with your day as you normally would without having to worry about downtime.
