Smooth out unwanted
facial wrinkles
BOTOX is a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It temporarily blocks nerve signals to muscles, reducing their activity and smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines. BOTOX effectively treats crow’s feet, forehead creases, and frown lines. It is a minimally invasive procedure with no downtime, offering quick results for a more youthful, refreshed appearance. At Clear Skin Dermatology, our skilled professionals provide personalized BOTOX treatments for optimal and naturalized results.

Your BOTOX® experience
During your BOTOX treatment at Clear Skin Dermatology, you will first have a consultation with our providers to discuss your goals and medical history. This ensures the treatment is tailored to your specific needs. The actual procedure is quick and minimally invasive. Our provider will use a fine needle to inject small amounts of BOTOX into the targeted muscles. You may feel a slight pinch, but the process is generally well-tolerated and takes about 10-15 minutes.
After the treatment, you might experience minor side effects like redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites. These effects are typically mild and subside within a few days. You can resume your normal activities immediately, although we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and not lying down for at least four hours post-treatment to ensure optimal results. The results will start appearing within a few days and finalize within two weeks.

BOTOX® FAQs
How does BOTOX work?
BOTOX works by temporarily blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. When injected into specific muscles, BOTOX inhibits the nerve signals that cause these muscles to contract. This relaxation of the targeted muscles results in a smoother appearance of the overlying skin, effectively reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The effects are localized to the injection site, allowing for precise control over which muscles are treated and preserving natural facial expressions.
How long does a BOTOX treatment take?
A BOTOX treatment session usually takes 10-15 minutes. It is a minimally invasive procedure that requires no downtime, making it convenient for those with busy schedules.
Does BOTOX hurt?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during BOTOX. The needles used are very fine, and the injections are quick. We can also apply a topical numbing cream to enhance comfort.
Are there any side effects of BOTOX?
Common side effects include redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These are usually mild and resolve within a few days. Rarely, patients may experience headaches, temporary drooping of the eyelid, or asymmetry for a few days.
What should I do after my BOTOX treatment?
After your BOTOX treatment, you should avoid strenuous exercise, lying down, or rubbing the treated area for at least four hours. This helps prevent the BOTOX from spreading to unintended areas and ensures optimal results.
When will I see the results from BOTOX?
You can expect to see initial results within a few days of treatment, with the full effect becoming apparent within one to two weeks. The results typically last three to four months, after which follow-up treatments are needed to maintain the effect.
How often do I need BOTOX treatments?
To maintain the results, BOTOX treatments are typically needed every three to four months. Over time, with consistent treatments, you may find that you can extend the interval between sessions as your muscles become trained to relax.
Can BOTOX be combined with other treatments?
Yes, BOTOX can be combined with other cosmetic treatments, such as dermal fillers, chemical peels, and laser treatments, to enhance overall facial rejuvenation. Your provider can recommend a personalized treatment plan to address your specific concerns.
Who should not get BOTOX?
BOTOX is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a neurological disorder, or have an allergy to any of the ingredients in BOTOX. It is important to discuss your medical history with your provider to ensure BOTOX is safe for you.
