After receiving Botox injections, it’s normal to experience some swelling and bruising. These should resolve on their own shortly. You can minimize the potential for these side effects by avoiding alcohol, blood thinners, and anti-inflammatory medications before your treatment.

What Botox Treats
Botox uses a highly purified form of botulinum toxin, which blocks nerve signals between your brain and muscles, allowing your muscles to relax and wrinkles to smooth away. We use Botox to effectively treat a variety of facial areas, including:
-
Forehead lines
-
Brow lines
-
Mouth lines
-
Chin lines
-
Neck lines
-
Crow’s Feet
-
Masseters (Jawline)
Care Instructions
Still have questions?
For best results, we typically recommend having injections every 3 months. Botox results typically last 3 to 4 months, so having injections every 3 months means you can enjoy wrinkle-free skin for longer.
You may want both! Botox and filler are powerful anti-aging tools, and depending on your concerns, we may recommend both of them to help you achieve your aesthetic goals. Filler can restore facial volume to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and facial folds, while Botox smooths out wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that cause them.
Your provider at Total Skin can help you decide whether Botox or fillers—or both—are the best option for you!
