Botox (Botulinum toxin) injections are one of the most common non-surgical cosmetic procedures, which involve the removal of wrinkles, crow’s feet, and frown lines. The procedure relaxes facial muscles and smoothens out lines for a more youthful appearance.

Botox injections also have numerous other benefits, aside from wrinkle removal:

  • Softening of neck bands

  • Eyebrow contouring 

  • It can also help address extensive sweating in the palms, armpits, and soles

  • Minimize enlarged calf muscles

While our expert PAPRAS doctors can help you achieve any of these goals, Botox injections cannot improve severe skin conditions that are caused by extensive sun damage. At this stage, our doctors can help recommend additional procedures to help you achieve your desired look.

Preparation

Ahead of the procedure, it is highly advisable that patients:

  • Have a realistic set of expectations for what the botox injections can accomplish. 

  • Are physically healthy and have no underlying medical condition/s, which can impact healing

Patients should avoid Botox procedures during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Healing and Recovery

Patients can expect immediate results, but in some instances, it can take as long as 5 days for the full effects to show. 

Patients may also resume normal daily activities, with caution, post-procedure.
