Common Questions

What’s the best age to start getting BOTOX or Dysport?

Neuromodulators can benefit adults of all ages. People in their late 20s to 30s choose these treatments to prevent dynamic wrinkles from forming. Many people in their 40s and up start BOTOX injections when they notice crow’s feet and other dynamic wrinkles and want to look naturally rejuvenated.

Is BOTOX better than dermal fillers?

While both are injectable facial rejuvenation treatments, BOTOX and dermal fillers work in different ways and provide different benefits. BOTOX smooths away wrinkles by relaxing the facial muscles that create them. It takes a few days to take effect. Fillers provide instant results and rejuvenate the face by adding volume to smooth out folds and wrinkles, fill in hollows around the eyes, augment the cheeks, and more. The best choice may be one or the other but is often both.

Is BOTOX safe?

Since its FDA approval for cosmetic use in 2002, BOTOX has had a longstanding safety record when a trained and experienced provider administers it to a carefully screened patient.

Is there anything I should avoid before or after treatment?

While no actual downtime is needed, we recommend the following precautions after treatment for best results:

  • Avoid putting pressure on or rubbing injection sites for an hour or two.
  • Keep your head upright for the first few hours.
  • Hold off on strenuous exercise, drinking alcohol, and taking ibuprofen until the following day.

Will my results look natural?

When performed by one of our highly trained and experienced injectors, neuromodulator treatments help our patients look relaxed, refreshed, and very natural.

Does BOTOX really help prevent new wrinkles from forming?

Because it temporarily immobilizes the tiny wrinkle-causing muscles of the face, BOTOX is an effective anti-aging option that delays the development of dynamic wrinkles with a consistent treatment schedule.
