What is BOTOX® Cosmetic?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is the cosmetic form of botulinum toxin, an FDA-approved protein that reduces muscle activity and dynamic skin wrinkling. Expert use of BOTOX® Cosmetic requires an in-depth understanding of facial anatomy, muscle activity, and the product itself. Our Medical Director, Nicole Dahl-Lowe MSN, APRN, FNP-BC is a Master Expert Injector and has over 20 years of experience in facial treatments, and administering injections
What are the benefits of BOTOX® Cosmetic?
BOTOX® injections temporarily reduce or eliminate vertical frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal forehead creases, crow’s feet near the outer eyes, visible bands in the neck, and other less common facial concerns. BOTOX® injections can also be used to treat migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and certain muscle spasm conditions.
Who is a good candidate for BOTOX® Cosmetic?
Every beautiful result begins with a personalized consultation. Nicole will take the time to understand your concerns, aesthetic goals, and the results you’d like to achieve before carefully evaluating your facial anatomy, expressions, and natural movement. From there, she’ll create a customized BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment plan designed to refresh and soften your appearance while preserving what makes you uniquely you.
How long does BOTOX® Cosmetic last?
Every patient’s experience with BOTOX® Cosmetic is unique, but results typically last approximately three to four months. Factors such as the treatment area, dosage, metabolism, muscle activity, and your individual response can all influence how long your results remain visible.
With a personalized maintenance plan and regularly scheduled treatments, Nicole can help you maintain a beautifully refreshed, natural-looking appearance throughout the year.
What are BOTOX® injections like??
BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments are quick, precise, and customized to your individual needs. Using an ultra-fine needle, our Nurse Practitioner will carefully place each injection to achieve beautifully balanced, natural-looking results. A topical numbing cream is available for added comfort, although most patients find the treatment very tolerable.
There is little to no downtime, and you can return to most normal daily activities immediately following your appointment. Mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising can occasionally occur at the injection sites and typically resolves quickly. Results gradually begin to appear over the following days, with full results generally visible within approximately two weeks and lasting about three to four months for most patients.
We’ll provide personalized aftercare instructions, including any temporary activity recommendations, to help you enjoy the best possible result.
