The Consultation

This is the first appointment for every patient interested in Botox. We spend time learning about your areas of concerns, your goals, and your medical history to determine if you are a good candidate for Botox.

The Procedure

When you come to our office for Botox injections, you can be assured that you are in the best hands. Before the procedure, we will go over how the injections are administered along with potential side effects, which can include short term bruising and headaches. In order to minimize bruising, you should stop taking any anti-inflammatory medications including aspirin or over the counter medications which thin your blood about two weeks prior to your procedure. Please consult your primary care physician before temporarily stopping an aspirin regimen.

On the day of the procedure, your face will be cleaned prior to the injections. The doctor will use a fine needle to inject the Botox into the desired parts of the face at precise points. Injections last only a few minutes, with very little discomfort. Take special care not to touch the treatment areas for at least an hour after your procedure.

Results from Botox injections generally start appearing after a couple of days and can last for up to six months. Patients will need to schedule follow-up visits to maintain results long term. Over time, the muscles receiving Botox injections learn to relax, making wrinkles appear less severe. Many patients combine Botox with other dermal fillers for a total facial rejuvenation. A rewards program known as “Brilliant Distinctions” allows accumulation of points towards future discounts for Botox and Juvederm.
