Botox, administered by our skilled aesthetic providers at Evolve Plastic Surgery, is a popular non-surgical treatment that effectively smooths dynamic wrinkles like crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines and treats excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).
Smooth Wrinkles and
Reduce Excessive Sweating
Botox is a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. At Evolve Plastic Surgery, our skilled aesthetic providers use it to temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This non-surgical treatment is FDA-approved and commonly used to treat crow’s feet, forehead lines, frown lines, and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and involves minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities almost immediately.
Botox Treats:
- Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
- Bunny lines (lines on the nose)
- Lip lines (around the mouth)
- Neck bands (platysmal bands)
- Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
Your Botox Journey:
Before, During, and After
Before Botox
Before your Botox treatment, you will have a consultation with our experienced aesthetic providers. During this consultation, you’ll discuss your cosmetic goals and medical history to ensure Botox is right for you. Our team will explain the procedure, answer any questions, and create a personalized treatment plan. You may be advised to avoid certain medications and supplements that can increase bruising. On the day of your appointment, arrive with a clean face, free of makeup or skincare products, to ensure the best results.
During Botox
During your Botox treatment, you’ll be comfortably seated in a treatment chair. Our skilled aesthetic provider will clean the targeted areas and may apply a numbing cream to minimize discomfort. Using a fine needle, they will administer small amounts of Botox to specific muscles. The procedure typically takes about 10-15 minutes, with minimal discomfort reported. You might feel a slight pinch or sting with each injection. After the procedure, you can immediately return to your daily activities with no downtime required.
After Botox
After your Botox treatment, you can resume your daily activities immediately, as there is no downtime required. You may experience minor redness or swelling at the injection sites for a few hours or days. Results usually begin to appear within 3-5 days, with full effects visible in about two weeks. The smooth, youthful look achieved with Botox generally lasts 3-4 months. For optimal results, follow any post-treatment care instructions provided by our aesthetic providers, such as avoiding strenuous activities and not rubbing the treated areas.
