How Does Botox® Work?

Botox® works because of the power of its active ingredient, which works to reduce muscle movement in the treated areas. Because Botox® works to temporarily relax the muscles it treats, it is most commonly used to treat what we call “action wrinkles,” or wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. These movements, such as frowning, squinting, and furrowing the brow, cause the fine lines and wrinkles our patients wish to treat. Just a single Botox® treatment can reduce the appearance of these wrinkles for up to four months at a time.

What Does Botox® Treat?

Botox® is a popular treatment to smooth away fine lines, wrinkles, and imperfections around the upper third of the face. The most popular treatment areas to receive Botox® injections include:

  • Forehead wrinkles
  • Frown lines or 11’s between the eyebrows
  • Crow’s feet or lines along the outer eyes
  • Bunny lines or small wrinkles on the bridge of the nose

Botox® FAQs

Your Botox® treatment will start with a consultation, in which our Nurse Practitioner or Dr. Niedbalski will sit down with you, evaluate your skin, and listen to your concerns. Once we determine Botox® is right for you and your desired look, we can start your treatment.

Before your Botox® treatment begins, we will cleanse the area of your skin being treated and apply a topical anesthetic. This is to ensure you remain as comfortable as possible throughout your treatment. Once numb, Nurse Practitioner Allie Morehart or Dr. Niedbalski will carefully inject the Botox® cosmetic into your treatment area. The entire injection process typically takes about 10 minutes to complete.

Because Botox® is a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment, there is little to no downtime or recovery period associated with Botox® treatments. In fact, many patients are able to return to work, school, and most normal daily activities immediately following their treatments. You may notice swelling, tenderness, and/or redness in your treatment area. However, these side effects generally resolve on their own within a few days of treatment.

Botox® does not work immediately – rather, it settles into the treated muscles and starts taking effect about 7 – 10 days following treatment.

Botox® generally lasts about three to four months in the patient’s treated areas before slowly and naturally wearing off. To maintain your ultimate aesthetic results, we encourage our patients to consider coming in for regular treatments once each quarter.

A simple, nonsurgical in-office procedure, Botox® is not just for women. It successfully relaxes facial wrinkles in men and women alike! If you think it is time to smooth away those moderate to severe forehead wrinkles, frown lines, or crow’s feet, talk to Dr. Niedbalski or Nurse Practitioner Allie Morehart about whether Botox® is right for you.
