What is Botox®? 

According to a recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Botox® is the top minimally invasive cosmetic procedure performed in America.

FDA-approved Botulinum toxin injections (Botox) use neurotoxins to block nerve signals to your facial muscles. These muscles help you make expressions like smiling or raising your eyebrows. 

Over time, your skin-tightening collagen breaks down, making it more difficult for your skin to bounce back into place. Every time you make a facial expression, the lines and wrinkles that form begin to stay in place. 

Your cushioning layer of subcutaneous fat also decreases with age, so your facial muscles start working closer to your skin’s surface. 

With Botox, you can still make facial expressions, but your muscles now stay relaxed. This helps avoid lines and wrinkles and restores your skin’s smooth texture. 

What does Botox treat? 

Botox can restore your youthful appearance and is ideal for treating lines and wrinkles in areas including your:

• Forehead 
• Nose
• Eyes (crow’s feet)
• Eyebrows
• Lips 
• Jawline
• Neck 

To improve more severe lines or wrinkles, the expert skin care team at Creekside Wellness offers dermal fillers. 

What happens during a Botox procedure? 

You undergo your Botox injection procedure at the Creekside Wellness offices. Your provider numbs the targeted area on your skin with a mild anesthetic to ensure you’re comfortable. They then use a small needle to inject Botox into your skin. 

The number of injections you receive depends on your overall cosmetic goals and the size of the area your provider is treating. You can expect the procedure to take only a few minutes. Afterward, you can return to your daily routine. Your provider may encourage avoiding rubbing the treatment area for 24 hours and lying down for two to four hours after the injection. 

Botox provides results almost instantly but reaches its optimal potential in about a week. Botox can last three to four months, and your provider works with you to determine how often you should come in for treatment.

Are there side effects associated with Botox? 

Side effects from Botox are temporary and minimal, but you may experience:

• Pain or bruising 
• Redness 
• Drooping eyelids 
• Blurry vision 
• Flu-like symptoms
• Headache or Nausea 
• Neck pain 
• Muscle spasms 
• Muscle weakness in your face
