Botox FAQs

What is Botox?

Botox Cosmetic is an FDA-approved prescription product that temporarily improves the look of both moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, moderate to severe crow's feet, and forehead lines in adults. Unlike a face lift or other type of invasive facial rejuvenation procedure, this treatment takes minutes and requires no downtime.

How does Botox work?

Using a very fine needle, Botox is injected right into the facial muscles that are responsible for unsightly wrinkles and fine lines and relaxes the muscles. The ingredients in Botox block the signal from the nerve to the muscle, and therefore lower its ability to contract and form unpleasant wrinkles.

How much does Botox cost?

The cost depends on you and your needs. Everyone's a little bit different. Our experts will work with you to tailor a treatment package based on exactly what your needs are.

How long does Botox usually last?

The effects of the treatment can last anywhere from 3-6 months. Several aspects can affect how long the results last. As the product wears off, muscle action returns slowly, and the previously treated lines and wrinkles may start to come back, and you might need another treatment. A few of the things that might lessen or extend the effects are: your age, sun damage, condition of skin, facial structure and expressions, diet, and your past experiences with Botox and other wrinkle relaxers.

When will I see results?

You may start to notice Botox results within 72 hours with the greatest effect noticeable at 14 days. Results might vary.

Is Botox safe?

Botox Cosmetic is FDA-approved and injections are fairly safe when performed by a skilled injector. It has shown to be an effective and valuable restorative protein when dosage, frequency of treatment, and variety of treated clinical conditions are considered. The best way to ensure you receive the results you are looking for is to only get injections from a highly skilled provider, such as the medical and nursing specialists at Platinum Sculpt.

Who should not get Botox?

While most people aged 18 to 65 are great candidates for Botox and wrinkle relaxers, you should not use Botox if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a skin infection or other condition in the area to be treated, are allergic to any ingredients in Botox, Dysport, or any other botulinum toxin brand, have had a facial surgery, have trouble swallowing, or have weakness in your forehead muscles. If you have any concerns regarding whether or not you may be a good candidate, one of our specialists will be happy to answer any questions you may have. With any clinical treatments, it is best to discuss the procedure with your physician before beginning treatment.
