muscles. By blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, BOTOX® smooths away existing fine lines and temporarily prevents new wrinkles from forming. The result is a refreshed, more youthful appearance.
In addition to treating wrinkles, BOTOX® can also be expertly administered to treat other aesthetic concerns such as a gummy smile or thin upper lip. Additionally, BOTOX® has many medical uses and is often used to treat conditions such as migraines and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).

Each patient will experience different benefits, depending on their individual needs and goals. In general, the benefits of BOTOX® include:
- Non-surgical and minimally invasive
- Quick treatment with no downtime
- Minimal discomfort
- Boosts confidence
Preparing for BOTOX®
There is not much prep needed for BOTOX®. In order to reduce bruising, you should avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medication for a day or two before your appointment. If you have any questions about BOTOX® or you are preparing for your first appointment, you can schedule a consultation to discuss your goals and develop a treatment plan.
What Happens During My BOTOX® Appointment?
A BOTOX® procedure typically takes less than 20 minutes. One of our experienced providers will cleanse the treatment area and then carefully and strategically administer injections.

The minimum age to get BOTOX® is 18 years old, although few people start that young. We do have many patients get their first BOTOX® treatments in their mid-20’s. Sometimes called preventative BOTOX® or “baby BOTOX®”, getting BOTOX® before you have significant signs of aging can help prevent wrinkles from forming in the first place.
Probably not! Anyone who is bothered by wrinkles or fine lines can benefit from BOTOX®. We have patients who got their first BOTOX® treatment in their 50’s or 60’s. There is no upper age limit for BOTOX®.
