A single treatment is enough to significantly improve an area for 3 to 4 months. After it wears off another treatment will be performed, again lasting approximately 4 months.

Not if it's done correctly. A good BOTOX® application will avoid injecting too much of the active protein into muscles steering clear of the temporary but often undesired effects of being unable to perform facial expressions in the treated area. We have done our jobs if your fine lines have decreased while maintaining your natural appearance.

Some BOTOX® patients experience a little bruising or redness around the injection site after the treatment, which should last only a couple of hours but can sometimes last up to a few weeks—depending on the individual—although, this is rare. Some patients have experienced headaches within the first 24 hours, and these should also fade quickly.

Often, the main problems with BOTOX® treatments come from using too much BOTOX®, which is something we avoid with our treatment approach and belief that more often than not, "less is more." This won't be a problem with the experienced, professional staff at Ageless Living. Negative effects are also common when before and aftercare instructions are not followed by a patient. We avoid this by reviewing these instructions, each and every visit and even providing these for you to take home.

Typically, within 4 to 7 days, but it can potentially be up to 2 weeks before the full results are apparent. We take pictures using our specialized Reveal camera system prior to each treatment, and then again 2 weeks later at your follow-up visit. These pictures can be reviewed by you at any time, so you can see just how well the treatment worked for you.

Generally, results last 4 months, but often with the first few treatments it could be a little less. Once we find the perfect dosing for you, without jumping the gun and using too much, we will get your treatments lasting 4 months and have you aging gracefully. Again, we truly believe that less is more when achieving natural results.

Some people are hypersensitive to BOTOX® itself, but reactions are very rare. Other contraindications include infections, inflamed skin, atrophy and other skin conditions at the injection site. BOTOX® is not suitable for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding or for people with certain neurological diseases such as muscular sclerosis.
