Description

Botox is a purified protein injected in small amounts to temporarily relax the facial muscles that cause expression lines, most often on the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. Results typically appear within a few days and last three to four months.

What It Treats

Frown lines, forehead lines, and crow's feet caused by repeated muscle movement, as well as some medical uses like chronic migraines and excessive sweating.

The Procedure

A series of small injections placed directly into the target muscles, performed in the office with a very fine needle. No anesthesia is needed, and the appointment typically takes 10 to 15 minutes.

Recovery & Aftercare

No downtime -- most patients return to normal activities immediately. Mild redness or small bumps at injection sites usually resolve within a few hours.

Myths vs. Facts

Myth: Botox will leave your face looking frozen or unable to move. Fact: When dosed appropriately, Botox relaxes targeted muscles while preserving natural expression.

Is It Right for You?

If you're bothered by expression lines that show even when your face is at rest, Botox is one of the most well-studied, predictable options to soften them.
