Botox Vs. Dermal Fillers

Botox is a unique product that works entirely different than dermal fillers. This solution essentially breaks the link of communication between the brain and the nerves in target muscles. After treatment, the brain continues to send messages to injected muscles to contract. However, those messages are not received. The intent with filler treatment is to add volume, usually with hyaluronic acid, a natural sugar compound. The intent with Botox is to smooth the skin by relaxing often-used muscles.

Botox Procedure

Botox is a quick and efficient procedure, completed in just about 30 minutes. We make sure that you are comfortable before injections, and discuss where and how many injections we will perform.

 

Side Effects Of Botox Injections

Most patients treated with Botox experience very minor side effects such as swelling and slight redness at the injection site. Sometimes, bruising may occur. Typically, these effects subside within hours. Some patients also develop a subtle headache after treatment, which is manageable with over-the-counter medication.

What Are The Top Botox Misconceptions?


What Is Botox?

Botox® is an injectable cosmetic solution that uses the naturally occurring proteins Clostridium botulinum, or botulinum toxin for the purpose of eliminating facial wrinkles. By injecting small doses of this substance into the muscles affected by facial expressions, it blocks the release of the chemical that would otherwise signal the muscle to contract. The injection weakens the targetted muscle, reducing wrinkles.

What Is Botulinum Toxin?

There are several types of botulinum toxin, which all stem from the bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. The types that are relevant to medical and cosmetic use are botulinum toxin A and B. Botox is formulated on type A. While many people associate Clostridium botulinum with food poisoning, Botox treatments inject such small doses of this matter that there is little risk to health and wellness. A trained, experienced physician understands how to use this injectable appropriately to maintain strict safety guidelines.

How Long Do Botox Results Last?

Results tend to last an average of 3 to 4 months. However, this can vary from one person to another. Other factors affect longevity as well, including dilution, or dosage. These factors are why it is important to obtain treatment from a physician who is familiar not only with the 43 different muscles in the face but the pull each tends to have on surrounding tissues.

Is There Any Pain Associated With Botox?

Other than a slight pinch of the tiny needle, patients rarely experience discomfort.
