Lines and wrinkles may seem inevitable, but you can smooth them away and even keep them from getting worse with a quick, non-surgical treatment. Botox® is an injectable treatment almost synonymous with wrinkle smoothing. If you are considering this treatment, you most likely have many questions, and your Manhattan Aesthetics team will answer them all.
Botox® has been used for decades to treat medical and aesthetic concerns, including lines and wrinkles, muscle spasms, and excessive sweating. This injectable treatment uses botulinum toxin, a compound that relaxes muscles by temporarily preventing signals from the nerves that control them. It allows the skin to relax, leading to a smoother, refreshed appearance.
*individual results may vary.
The average Botox® appointment lasts under an hour, and the actual injections take as little as 15 minutes. Your Manhattan Aesthetics team has been designated an elite Botox® provider by the manufacturer due to their skill and experience. You will not see any results from Botox® when you leave your appointment.
Many people start to see Botox® results appear after about three days. Full results take up to ten days to evolve, but most people are pleased their their wrinkle improvements within a few days. Once established, you can expect your results to last four to six months, depending on how your body responds to the treatment.
Because it relaxes the muscles that cause skin to wrinkle, Botox® is most effective on wrinkles that appear or deepen with your facial expressions. The most common areas treated with Botox® injections include:
Some types of wrinkles are better treated with dermal fillers, especially those caused by lost facial volume. Your expert injector will determine which treatment option will work best, and people often benefit from both types of wrinkle treatments.
Our expert providers here at Manhattan Aesthetics would be happy to meet with you for an in-person consultation.
Simply fill out the form on this page, and one of our trusted staff members will reach out to you promptly to schedule your consultation.
You can return to work and most other activities after Botox®, although your injector will give you a few instructions. While there is no downtime, you should avoid rubbing your face or lying down for at least four hours after treatment. You may notice minor redness, swelling, or bruising in the area that can last up to a few days.
Men and women have Botox® to look younger and more refreshed. It works safely for all skin types and tones. Good candidates are healthy and have achievable goals. There is no “right” age to start Botox®, and many younger individuals now start with “baby Botox®” or MicroTox as a preventative measure to keep wrinkles from forming. People with certain medical conditions may not be candidates.
