What is BOTOX?

BOTOX is an injectable wrinkle relaxer made from Botulinum toxin, and it is designed to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles are caused by repetitive movements of the muscles. BOTOX targets the muscles in your face to freeze them and help the skin relax to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. This procedure can also be used to treat and lift hooded eyes if the cause of the hooded eyes is eyebrow position or drooping eyebrows.

How is BOTOX done?

BOTOX is an outpatient procedure and is usually done on the same day as your consultation. During your exam, you will be asked to make various facial expressions so that Dr. Higgins can see where BOTOX will be best suited for injection. Then, your face will be cleaned before the BOTOX is applied with a small needle. A cold compress will then be placed to help reduce pain and bruising. You can also request a topical numbing cream to help with any discomfort associated with the procedure. However, this is usually not needed. The procedure portion of your visit should take about 15 minutes. Afterward, you can return to your normal daily activities.

What are the benefits of BOTOX?

There are multiple benefits to BOTOX, depending on what you are trying to achieve. In general, BOTOX can help smooth wrinkles and fine lines, prevent new wrinkles from forming, create a younger-looking appearance, and more. BOTOX is also great because it is quick, effective, and reliable. BOTOX can last up to four months, and maintenance treatments are available to keep your results fresh.
