Botox

Soften lines for natural looking results.

As we age, our skin breaks down and loses elasticity. Over time, the repetitive muscle contractions and our expressions cause wrinkles and lines to form. Skin Therapy Esthetics delivers a conservative approach to treatment for a more natural-looking result.

​

Botox is a simple and minimally invasive, non-surgical solution, strategically injected directly into specific facial muscles to block the chemical that causes muscles to contract and wrinkle.

​

Esthetically, Botox is FDA approved to treat areas such as the forehead, in between eyebrows and around the eyes to improve the appearance of mild to moderate wrinkles by reducing muscle activity.

​

When treated appropriately, Botox can last an average of 3-4 months. Individual results vary. You will see the effects within 3-5 dats with a maximum result achieved after 2 weeks.

​

Before your treatment, we will analyze your areas of concern, muscle movement and strength to determine the amount of Botox needed. A few tiny injections are carefully placed in specific muscles of the face for natural results.

 

It is important to remember that results can vary from patient to patient and men usually require a higher dose than women. We typically combine your first treatment with a two-week follow up for a possible dose adjustment in order to achieve your unique dose, tailored just for your needs. You must also remember that Botox blocks impulses form the nerves to the specific facial muscles to relax muscle contraction for a relaxed, natural look. Botox may also be used as a preventative measure against lines from becoming deeper over time.

​

Prescribed, medical-grade skin care products applied daily are essential in the maintenance of results by supporting healthy, strong skin.

At Skin Therapy Esthetics, cosmetic Botox is administered by Jeanna Scully, Registered Nurse.
