Are you frustrated with unwanted fine lines and wrinkles? Are the creams and serums you have been using not quite cutting it? If so, you should have a look at botox. It is an injectable treatment that can easily and safely smooth away any unwanted wrinkles and fine lines. And, it does this with zero downtime! If you’re interested, here at Tampa Bay Plastic Surgery, we can help!
There are a number of areas where you can get this injectable treatment. If you have another area that is not mentioned, let our staff know! They will be able to evaluate that area and determine if this treatment could also be beneficial there.
Lines and wrinkles that often develop between the brows are a popular area of treatment. Lines and wrinkles that range from moderate to even more severe can be smoothed away painlessly using this treatment option and this can often take many years off of one’s appearance.
This is likely the most popular area for this injectable treatment as lines and wrinkles on the forehead are quite common. This treatment will take care of any of those stubborn wrinkles and fine lines, giving your forehead a much smoother, more youthful look with absolutely no downtime or painful surgery.
The fine lines that can arise directly above the upper lip can be some of the most stubborn lines but are a perfectly normal part of the aging process. However, they do tend to add many years to one’s appearance and are difficult to conceal using just about any method. This treatment will smooth away those fine lines quickly and effectively.
Often referred to as “crow’s feet”, the lines and wrinkles that develop on the outer corners of the eyes can be difficult to smooth away using only at-home treatments like serums and eye creams. This treatment will quickly take care of those wrinkles and lines and give you a more awake, youthful appearance around the eyes.
These lines and wrinkles are another concern for many people and again, can be difficult to get rid of using only eye creams. This treatment will smooth away those lines and wrinkles and give you back that youthful radiance.
Sometimes called “eye hoods”, the area above the eyes can become sagging and make one look much older than one may feel. This treatment can help to lift up those hoods and give your eyes a nice lift that is going to take years off of your face.
“Marionette lines” are a major concern for many people as they can add years to one’s face and one’s smile. This treatment will smooth those fine lines and wrinkles away easily.
While fine lines in this area can be a more unique concern for many, this treatment can help. Any fine lines and wrinkles can be smoothed away to give you a more defined and smooth jaw and chin region.
This treatment works by being injected directly into the area of concern. It actually tackles the underlying issue that is the cause of wrinkles which is the muscles beneath the skin contracting. This treatment will freeze or paralyze those muscles and thereby smooth away any fine lines and wrinkles on the surface. It does this without pain or downtime and can be completely customized to get the look that you want!
1. Does It Hurt?
No, this treatment is not surgical or invasive. It is just an injection that is going to deal with the underlying cause of wrinkles and fine lines. You do not have to be worried about experiencing pain or discomfort as a result of this treatment.
2. Is This a Safe Treatment Option?
Of course! This treatment has been tried and proven over the course of many years. It is also approved by the FDA. Unlike with surgeries, you do not have to be worried about your safety or the safety of your skin.
3. When Will I See My Results?
This may vary for each person as we are all different. However, most people will notice a difference within the days following their treatment. Most people will be able to see their full results within 2 weeks or less. Some people may see their results sooner while others may have to wait a couple of additional days to see the full spectrum of their results.
4. How Long Will My Results Last?
Again, this will likely vary for each person but most people can expect their results to last for 3 to 4 months. Some people will see their results lasting longer, sometimes even over 6 months. When you do notice your results beginning to fade, you can always have an additional treatment to keep your results lasting longer!
5. How Long Will My Treatment Session Take?
A great part about this treatment option is that it does not take a long time to complete. A treatment session is not going to take longer than 30 minutes and in most cases is a lot shorter than that! You can smooth away any unwanted fine lines and wrinkles in just 30 minutes so it is great for even those people who have really busy schedules.
6. How Do I Get Prepared for My Treatment?
On your end, you do not have to do anything special to get ready for your treatment. You just need to show up for your appointment and our staff will take care of everything else. If there would be something that you should do before your treatment, our staff will let you know prior to coming in.
7. How Do I Know This Is Right for Me?
If you are a person who has unwanted fine lines and wrinkles, it is likely that this is a treatment that can help you. It is one of the most effective non-surgical treatments for dealing with unwanted fine lines and wrinkles so it is a great choice for anybody looking to take care of that concern. If you have more concerns, during your consultation, our staff will be sure to answer any other questions you may have before you make your final decision.
8. Is There Downtime?
Not at all! The moment that your treatment session is over, you can go back to your daily routine. You do not have to worry about making time to recover because there is no recovery time.
9. Can I Have More Than One Area Treated During the Same Session?
Absolutely! If you have more than 1 area of concern when it comes to fine lines and wrinkles, you can treat them all in a single session. If you want both your forehead and outer eye corners treated during the same session, that can be done! Whatever area or areas you want to have treated can all be done at the same time as this treatment is both effective and safe enough to do so!
10. Will It Look Unnatural?
No. This is not a treatment that is going to look like you have “had work done.” It is simply going to smooth away unwanted fine lines and wrinkles to your specifications. It will not look unnatural unless that is the look that you are going for and our staff will be sure to accommodate. However, this treatment is able to take care of fine lines and wrinkles in a very natural, subtle way which is why so many people opt to give it a try!
11. Is This Only for Women?
No. This is a treatment for any person who wants to get rid of unwanted wrinkles and fine lines without surgery or downtime. Women and men can both enjoy the benefits of this treatment!
Unwanted fine lines and wrinkles can add years to one’s appearance and can be stubborn to deal with if you only use at-home treatments. With botox you see your results quickly and can have more than 1 area treated during the same session. Treatment is also quick and the results truly speak for themselves.
