About Botox
What is Botox?
Botox is a cosmetic injection that reduces the visibility of dynamic wrinkles and expression lines, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. When injected into targeted areas on the face, Botox can temporarily weaken the facial muscles responsible for the formation of your wrinkles, thereby suppressing the associated wrinkles. The results appear within a few days and last several months. Early Botox intervention can also help you prevent wrinkles.
The benefits of Botox:
- Minimally invasive treatment — no incisions or scarring
- Minimal discomfort during the treatment
- Addresses the root cause of dynamic wrinkles
- Early Botox intervention can prevent facial wrinkles
- Concludes within 15 minutes
- Almost no post-treatment downtime
Botox can correct the following:
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Vertical frown lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines around the nose bridge
- Laugh lines around the nose and mouth
- Perioral lines around the lips
- Creases and dimples on the chin
- Fine neck lines and banding of neck muscles
- Other facial wrinkles and creases
Your personalized Botox treatment
Dr. Lisiecki performs a highly personalized Botox treatment. Instead of offering a standardized dose, he personalizes the units of Botox according to your existing condition, the depth of your wrinkles, and your goals. During the treatment, the cosmetic provider will cleanse your facial skin and inject the appropriate units of Botox into the targeted facial muscles. The treatment concludes within 15 minutes.
Side effects and recovery after Botox
Botox is an extremely safe procedure with minimal post-treatment side effects, such as redness, swelling, discomfort, tenderness, and bruising around the injection points. The side effects should dissipate within a few days. You can resume most of your daily activities and work immediately after your Botox treatment, but you should avoid strenuous workouts for a day or two. You should also keep your head elevated for a few hours after the treatment.
The onset and longevity of Botox results
You will start noticing mild improvements in your facial skin 3 to 4 days after your Botox treatment, but the results will finalize after 2 weeks. The final results last for 3 to 4 months, following which your wrinkles will gradually reappear. Most patients opt for 3 or 4 Botox treatments per year to maintain smooth, wrinkle-free skin.
