What is Botox?

Your Go-To Wrinkle Treatment

Botox temporarily weakens facial muscles that cause wrinkling of the skin and unwanted facial expressions. Patients frequently complain, “People think I’m angry or unhappy when I’m not.” Treatment with Botox is safe, effective, and can be titrated to individual desires, whether that means a more pleasing general appearance, smoothness of the skin, or a complete lack of movement in facial areas. It can also be used to achieve facial symmetry when an imbalance exists.

What are the benefits of Botox?

Fast Rejuvenation for Men and Women

Neuromodulators are a convenient and effective solution to facial aging, taking only minutes to perform and delivering results that last for months! There is absolutely no downtime, so treatment is easy to incorporate into your schedule and, when performed by an experienced, reputable professional, offers authentic results. For patients in Austin Botox is an effective treatment for:

Crow’s feet
Smile lines
Frown lines
A drooping brow
Forehead wrinkles

Am I a good candidate for Botox?

Non-surgical Refresh

Botox may be the right solution for you if you have wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions, such as frown lines, forehead wrinkles, smile lines, or crow's feet. It effectively smooths skin and provides a subtle lift to leave you looking refreshed and youthful. Candidates should be generally healthy, with mild to moderate concerns about the appearance of facial wrinkles. In addition to treating existing fine lines and wrinkles, many patients use Botox as a preventative treatment.

What Areas Can Botox Address?

Botox is suitable for addressing various aesthetic issues, including wrinkles, fine lines, and asymmetry. Common cosmetic concerns addressed with Botox include:

Neck bands
Chin dimpling
A boxy jawline
Gummy smiles
Prominent jowls
Facial asymmetry
Forehead creases
Low-lying eyebrows
Downturned mouth corners
Perioral lines on the upper lip
Crow’s feet on the outer eye corners
Glabellar lines between the eyebrows
Bunny lines on either side of the nose

How much Botox will I need?

Consultation and Preparation

The amount of neuromodulator formula you'll need depends on your desired outcome and the area being treated. A consultation with a qualified healthcare professional is essential to determine the right amount for you. During the consultation, you can discuss your goals for wrinkle reduction or facial rejuvenation. The professional will assess your muscle strength, facial anatomy, and desired results to create a personalized treatment plan. Be sure to share any reference photos you have of results you admire.

In terms of preparation, there's not much needed beforehand. However, be sure to disclose your medical history, current medications, and any allergies you may have. It's also wise to avoid blood thinners like aspirin or ibuprofen for a week or so before treatment to minimize bruising.

Your Botox Procedure

Designed to Suit Your Life

Botox takes only a few minutes to administer. After sanitizing your skin and applying a topical numbing solution and assessing your facial anatomy, your injection specialist Lacy, RNFA, will perform a series of injections into the targeted muscles. As soon as your injections are finished, you will be able to return to your daily routine!

Botox Recovery

Take years off in minutes.

With Botox Austin patients require no downtime, making it an ideal solution for those who are constantly on the go or those who just want a rejuvenated look without the fuss. Mild bruising and swelling around injection sites are common but should resolve quickly and be easy to conceal with makeup. You will need to avoid lying down for at least four hours after your treatment and wait at least 24 hours before engaging in strenuous exercise to ensure your Botox stays where it's intended.

Botox Results

Authentically youthful results are waiting for you.

Botox works, and it works very well. Results usually last three to four months, but the improvements are so satisfying that patients often come back for more. Lacy has assisted Dr. Caridi in the operating room for over a decade and has served as the Westlake Plastic Surgery injection specialist for several years. Call today for your free consultation.

Will I Need Multiple Botox Treatments?

Most of our Austin Botox patients find a single session is all they need to achieve a beautiful result. However, injectable neuromodulators are not permanent. Over time, your body will break down the ingredients, allowing the treated wrinkles to return. Therefore, you will likely need to touch up your Botox three to four months later or as soon as you notice the results wearing off. Most patients come in three to four times per year to maintain their results.

Botox Frequently Asked Questions

Is Botox better than fillers?

Botox and fillers work differently and address different concerns. Many of our patients use a combination of Botox and fillers to maintain their youthful appearance.

At what age should you start Botox?

Many patients begin Botox in their mid-20s to help prevent wrinkles from appearing, although older patients achieve great results as well!

Does Botox make you look older when it wears off?

Botox does not contribute to the appearance of aging in any way. When it wears off, some patients are surprised by the difference in their appearance simply because they have adjusted to the younger look that this treatment provides.

How much does Botox cost?

The average cost of Botox is approximately $490 nationally. Keep in mind that every client needs a different number of units to achieve their desired outcome.
