With a reputation that precedes itself, BOTOX® Cosmetic is a proven, internationally recognized, non-surgical treatment that targets unwanted wrinkles and creases between the eyebrows. BOTOX® Cosmetic is the perfect solution for anyone looking for a safe, quick, and affordable means of removing those pesky laugh lines, forehead creases, and other premature facial wrinkles.

No matter your age, gender, or how much effort you put into caring for your skin, the daily contraction of muscle tissue tied to emotional expression (i.e. smiling, frowning, etc) will inevitably start leaving wrinkles in their wake. To prevent this, you can either refrain from expressing emotion (silly not to mention, impossible) or give injectable BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments a try. BOTOX® Cosmetic effectively relaxes the muscle tissue in the face, thereby limiting its pull on the skin's surface and smoothing out any wrinkles around and between your eyes and up into your forehead.

While BOTOX® Cosmetic utilizes minute amounts of the botulinum toxin to help instigate the wrinkle removal process, the treatment is FDA approved and much safer and less invasive than most surgical face-lift procedures.

The typical BOTOX® Cosmetic procedure rarely takes more than 10 minutes, involves several simple injections, and can provide results that last four months or more. The treatment usually shows the best results with patients between the ages of 27-48. Patients with deeper lines and less skin elasticity may want to consider an alternative, non-surgical procedure such as Thermage, Threadlift, and Titan.

Typical Minimum Cost of BOTOX® Cosmetic:

$200 (per area)

Typical Maximum Cost of BOTOX® Cosmetic:

How Long Does this Procedure Take?

BOTOX®, injections are super quick, requiring only about 15 minutes to perform.

BOTOX® Cosmetic Side Effects:

The side effects of BOTOX® are generally not serious.  It is possible to experience a mild headache after the injections, and you may experience light bruising around the injection site, but this is temporary and will usually disappear in 3-7 days.

Providers need to be careful when administering BOTOX® around the mouth as it relaxes facial muscles and can cause numbness and decreased control, resulting in drooling or slurred speech.  This is not to say that these areas can't be treated, but every provider is different, and some choose to not use BOTOX® around the mouth. You will need to check the qualifications of your provider before going through with treatment.

Length of BOTOX® Cosmetic Results:

While BOTOX® results are fantastic, the treatment's results are temporary. You can anticipate follow up treatments every 3-6 months, or up to 8 months if you're lucky.

BOTOX® Cosmetic Recovery Time:

There is no recovery time associated with BOTOX® for wrinkle removal.

Can Insurance Cover BOTOX® Cosmetic?

Since BOTOX® is considered a cosmetic treatment, insurance usually does not apply.  However, many people are using BOTOX® for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) and migraine headaches.  You may want to contact your healthcare provider to determine if treatment would be covered for these conditions.
