Hit Snooze on Wrinkles

What is Botox?

A purified protein derived from botulinum toxin, Botox is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to temporarily block nerve signals to the muscles that cause movement. When injected by a qualified professional into specific areas of the face-usually the forehead, outer corners of the eyes, between the eyes, and around the mouth-it can minimize the appearance of wrinkles and lines and discourage new ones from developing.*

According to a report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Botox is the most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure in the U.S., with over six million treatments administered each year.

You should typically see a noticeable improvement in treated facial wrinkles within a few days of the procedure.

What are the benefits of Botox treatments?

It can help you achieve a more youthful appearance while avoiding surgery.

What to Expect

Am I a candidate for Botox?

In general, the best candidates are men and women at least 18 years old, who are in good overall health and have no history of neuromuscular disease. You should not receive Botox Cosmetic if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a neurological disease. Make sure to discuss your full medical history with your injector during your consultation.

Candidates should have moderate to pronounced facial wrinkles in the areas where Botox is administered and also have realistic expectations about their results. We typically recommend treatment with Botox for patients with:

Frown lines between their eyebrows
Crow’s feet
Horizontal brow furrows
Lines around their nose

Your medical provider will explain the degree of improvement that you can expect and address any questions you have. If he does not think that Botox will help you achieve your goals, he may recommend additional or alternative cosmetic treatments.

Long-lasting

Botox Results

After a round of Botox Pittsburgh patients will see results within a few days, but it can take a week or two to see how well your injections have smoothed your wrinkles. Over three to four months, even deep wrinkles will be significantly diminished. The appearance of wrinkles should continue to improve for up to a month. Results typically last three to four months. Patients who have never had Botox will require several treatments to optimize their results

Maximizing Your Results

Botox Aftercare

There are a few steps you can take after your Botox treatment to get the most out of your injections:

Take it easy. Limiting your physical activity for at least four to five hours after your treatment can help maintain the effects of Botox.

Avoid touching the area. Try not to put any external pressure on the treatment areas for at least four or five hours. Results will vary from patient to patient. One of the best ways to prolong the effects of your Botox is to receive regular touch-ups. Our team typically recommends receiving Botox every four to five months. Many patients notice that their results tend to last longer after subsequent treatments, as the Botox material begins to retrain the muscles in the treated areas.

BotoxFrequently Asked Questions

What are the potential side effects of Botox?

Botox is a safe, FDA-approved treatment. However, some patients do experience some side effects after treatment, such as:

Headache
Mild bruising at injection sites
Drooping eyebrows or upper eyelids

In general, these effects are mild and temporary. Most patients find headaches and bruising to subside within a day or two. Eyelid or brow drooping can take several weeks to resolve but typically does not require additional treatment. You can prevent drooping by following post-treatment recommendations from our team.

Can Botox cause an allergic reaction?

Though rare, Botox has been known to trigger an allergic reaction in some patients. Symptoms of a Botox allergy include:

Hives
Itching
Shortness of breath
Difficulty swallowing
Loss of appetite
Nausea
Diarrhea

To reduce the risk of an allergic reaction, a skin test will be performed prior to treatment. This helps your injector determine if you are a candidate for Botox Cosmetic.

How much does Botox cost?

Botox treatment fees can vary significantly depending on the geographic location of the practice and the experience of the doctor administering the treatment. On average, Botox cost ranges from $350 to $500 for each treatment area. Because Botox is considered a cosmetic procedure, the treatment is generally not covered by medical insurance. If you are considering Botox and you are concerned about the cost, speak to one of our team members. We will be happy to discuss payment options with you in more detail.

Can Botox be combined with dermal fillers?

Botox can be strategically combined with fillers such as Restylane® and Sculptra® for optimal facial rejuvenation.
