Botox: Wrinkle Reduction
Wrinkle Reduction
Botox is a precision injectable that softens lines and wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. We deliver artfully placed injections that enhance your natural beauty, giving you a refreshed, balanced appearance without freezing your expression. Ideal for expression lines between the brows, around the eyes, and across the forehead. Botox supports a smoother, more rested appearance that’s unmistakably you
How Botox Works
Botox is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes specific facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. By softening muscle contractions, Botox smooths existing lines and helps prevent new ones from forming, all while preserving natural movement and expression.
Why We Love Botox
Softens and Prevents Wrinkles
Botox reduces the muscle activity that causes repeated facial creasing, helping visible lines appear smoother and more relaxed. By limiting constant contraction, Botox can slow the progression of expression lines over time.
Quick and Minimally Invasive
Treatments typically take 15–30 minutes and require little interruption to daily life.
Natural, Tailored Results
Dosing and placement are guided by facial anatomy and movement, keeping results balanced and expressive.
Complements Other Treatments
Botox works alongside treatments that address skin texture, tone, and volume for cohesive, natural-looking results
Treatment Expectations and Care
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours
to help reduce bruising risk.
Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours
beforehand when possible (increased circulation can contribute to bruising for some.)
Review meds/supplements
If medically appropriate, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen/NSAIDs, and blood-thinning supplements in advance. Never stop prescribed blood thinners or other prescription meds without guidance from your prescribing clinician.
Pause active skincare
Hold retinoids, exfoliating acids, and strong actives for several days prior on the areas being treated to reduce irritation.
Arrive with clean skin when possible
Come with minimal makeup around planned injection sites.
Share your history
Tell us about allergies, medical conditions, neuromuscular conditions, pregnancy/breastfeeding status, current medications and supplements, prior toxin/filler history, and any recent vaccines or planned procedures so we can time treatment appropriately.
Appointment length
Most neuromodulator treatments are completed within 15–30 minutes, depending on the areas treated and individual anatomy.
Injection technique
The product is placed using ultra-fine needles into carefully selected muscles based on facial movement patterns and treatment goals.
Sensation
Injection placement and dosing are individualized to support balanced, natural-looking results while preserving facial expression.
Customization
Energy levels and technique are adjusted throughout the session based on real-time skin and vessel response.
Clinical environment
Treatments are performed in a medical setting using sterile technique by a licensed provider trained in facial anatomy and injectable safety.
Real-time assessment
Your provider may ask you to make facial expressions during treatment to ensure accurate placement and appropriate dosing.
Avoid contact
Do not touch, rub, massage, or apply makeup to treated areas for at least one hour after treatment.
Stay upright
Remain upright and avoid bending forward, lying flat, or strenuous activity for four hours.
Limit heat & circulation
Avoid alcohol, saunas, hot tubs, intense exercise, and prolonged sun exposure for 24 hours, as increased circulation may increase bruising or swelling.
Normal responses
Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at injection sites may occur and typically resolves within several days.
Results timeline
Initial changes may appear within 3–5 days, with full effects visible after two weeks.
Follow-up
If needed, a follow-up or touch-up can be considered after two weeks, once results have fully settled.
Pricing
Botox is priced per unit. The number of units recommended depends on treatment area, muscle strength, and your individual goals. Your provider will create a personalized plan during your consultation to ensure results look balanced, natural, and well-supported over time.
