What You Can Expect With BOTOX Injections

When it comes to reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, perhaps no other treatment is as popular as BOTOX. This FDA-approved injectable blocks the release of acetylcholine, the chemical that actually causes skin wrinkles, helping patients get smoother, more youthful looking skin without having to undergo surgery.

If you’re interested in getting BOTOX treatment, it’s important that you know what to expect with these injections.
  •  Prior to the procedure — Before getting BOTOX injections, you may wish to get your skin numbed to combat the slight discomfort that can be experienced. There are several numbing options available, including injections, cream, and even spray.
  • During the procedure — BOTOX is injected in tiny amounts through a thin needle into the targeted areas. The size of the area being treated will typically determine how many injections are needed.
  • After the procedure —You can resume normal activities after BOTOX with no downtime. Just make sure you don’t touch or rub the treated area as it could force the BOTOX into a different area.
If you’re interested in learning more about the benefits of BOTOX, contact the experienced team at Inverness Dermatology and Laser. We offer BOTOX in Birmingham, and most of our patients experience little to no downtime. Learn more at www.InvernessDerm.com. Like us on FaceBook.
