1. What ages can BOTOX Cosmetic injections treat?

Botox can treat active wrinkle lines in men and women from their teens on up, but most patients are in their late 20s before considering Botox.


2. How effective are BOTOX Cosmetic injections?

Botox relaxes muscles in the injected area for 3-6 months. Repeat injections are needed to maintain the results. Botox is very effective at treating active wrinkle lines. Passive lines (those present at rest) will still be present after injection.


3. How long does the botox injection procedure take?

The procedure takes less than 10 minutes.


4. Is Botox cosmetic new?

No- Botox has been used to relax muscles for over 15 years but received FDA approval for wrinkle treatment 8 years ago.


5. Does the botox injection hurt?

The injection uses a very tiny needle ( in our office 32 guage, the smallest needle available) and feels a bit like a mosquito bite. There is little or no pain after the injection. For those who prefer, a topical cream or ice pack can be used before treatment to numb the skin.


6. Does Botox Injections Change the Eyebrow Position?

Eyebrows may be repositioned by raising or lowering them depending on which muscles are treated.
