BOTOX
BOTOX is a popular non-surgical treatment that is injected into the facial muscles to temporarily reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
BOTOX works by blocking the signals from the nerves to the muscles, causing the muscles to relax and reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
BOTOX is commonly used to treat wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes (crow’s feet).
When administered by a licensed and well-trained professional, BOTOX is a secure and FDA-approved treatment. BOTOX has been in use for two decades and has been utilized to treat various medical conditions, including cerebral palsy in children as young as two years old. It has undergone extensive testing and research, demonstrating its effectiveness and safety.
The injections may cause a slight pinch or sting, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated and does not require anesthesia.
Generally after the consultation the procedure only takes up to 15 minutes.
It can take up to two weeks for it to take full effect. Usually we ask patients to wait for 14 days to pass in order to fully see the results.
BOTOX usually has a duration of 3-6 months, and after that period, the treatment can be repeated. By following Dr. Ek’s instructions and scheduling your first three treatments every three months without any delays, you may eventually extend the duration of the effects from each treatment.
There is no downtime required after BOTOX, and most patients are able to resume normal activities immediately after the treatment.
BOTOX is generally safe for most people, but it may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or allergies. A consultation with a licensed professional from Aesthetic Beauty Care is recommended before undergoing the treatment.
The majority of patients receiving BOTOX treatment do not experience any side effects. However, in rare instances, side effects such as bruising, swelling, and redness at the injection site may occur. While more severe side effects like drooping eyelids or difficulty swallowing are also infrequent, they can still happen and typically last for a short period ranging from a few days to a few weeks.
The pricing of BOTOX varies based on the required number of units and the specific area of treatment. The initial cost for treatment can be as low as $300, but a consultation with a licensed professional from Aesthetic Beauty Care can give a more accurate estimate of the total cost.
