(In Office Botox/Xenomin - $12/unit)
Botox/Xenomin/Dysport are cosmetic drugs that temporarily paralyze or weaken your muscles. It uses onobotulinumtoxin A, a neurotoxin produced by bacteria called Clostridium botulinum.
Botulinum injections are considered safe. The injection uses a diluted amount of toxin to stop muscles from contracting which helps wrinkles soften and relax.
Botulinum injections are a temporary procedure. The benefits of botulinum can last up to 4 months. Wrinkles may start to return in 2-3 months. The effectiveness of Botox will last longer with successive treatments.
Results of your treatment may take up to 14 days to take full effect, although many start to see benefits in 3-5 days.
Note that any bumps or marks will go away within a few hours. If you do develop a bruise, it will resolve like other bruises you have had in about a week. There is occasionally some mild pain, swelling, itching, or redness at the site of injection, similar to most other injections. Redness may last for 1-2 days, rarely longer. You may apply cold compresses or acetaminophen (Tylenol) to reduce swelling or discomfort.
Aftercare
Gently exercise your face for 2 hours after injections. This will help the treatment to be more effective by increasing the uptake by the targeted muscle groups.
Keep upright for the first 6 hours
You can gently apply light make-up after treatment but use a light dabbing motion instead of a rubbing or spreading motion.
Apply ice for any discomfort
