What should I know about Botox?

Botox is a neuromodulator that works by temporarily blocking or altering the transmission of nerve signals to get the desired results. For wrinkles, Botox injections stop the movement of facial muscles that cause lines and creases, allowing the skin to relax and smooth itself out.

me.losangeles aesthetics is a boutique medical spa dedicated to providing all the services you need to feel and look your best. They use Botox for medical and aesthetic purposes. 

What can Botox treat other than wrinkles?

Botox is best known for temporarily reducing the appearance of frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles. But Botox also addresses medical conditions like chronic migraines and excessive underarm sweating, a medical condition called hyperhidrosis.

The medical professionals at me.losangeles aesthetics use Botox and Dysport® (a brand name of Botox that treats frown lines) to reduce and prevent fine lines and facial wrinkles. They also use Botox to reduce gummy smiles and boost fullness in the lips (a technique called the lip flip). 

me.losangeles aesthetics also injects Botox into the jaw to relax the muscles and relieve temporomandibular joint disorder (TMJ) headaches. Botox injections into these muscles also help create a slimmer look in the face. 

Additionally, the professionals administer the medication into the front of the neck to treat tech neck, a type of neck pain that occurs from poor posture. You can also get Botox injections at the medical spa for hyperhidrosis.

What do Botox injections feel like?

You may feel a slight pinch during Botox injections at me.losangeles aesthetics, but the pain is minimal and fleeting. Most people tolerate Botox injections without the need for any type of local anesthetic.  

Your provider conducts a comprehensive consultation before providing any treatments so they can customize your plan. They talk to you about the injections and what you can expect to reduce any anxiety you may have about the treatment.

You may need multiple injections to get the desired results, but treatments are quick.

How long does Botox last?

Botox injections last three to four months. Once you notice the effects of your treatment wearing off, you can schedule your next session at me.losangeles aesthetics. 

When using Botox for wrinkles, regular injections may help prevent new lines from forming.
