Anti-Wrinkle Injections

What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?

Anti-wrinkle injections are a non-surgical solution for treating fine lines and dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions like frowning, smiling, or squinting. Made from a purified protein, these injections temporarily relax targeted muscles, creating smoother, younger-looking skin without freezing your natural expressions.

The story behind Botox

Botox, derived from botulinum toxin, was originally discovered for medical purposes in the 1950s, primarily used to treat conditions like strabismus (crossed eyes) and blepharospasm (eye spasms). It gained widespread attention in the 1990s when patients treated for eye disorders noticed a reduction in wrinkles, leading to its FDA approval in 2002 for cosmetic use, specifically for frown lines. Today, Botox is widely used not only for aesthetic treatments like smoothing forehead lines, crow’s feet, and jawline slimming but also for a variety of medical conditions. In large doses, Botox is used to manage neurospasticity disorders and conditions such as cerebral palsy in children, with doses reaching up to 500-1,000 units depending on the individual case. Botox also helps with chronic migraines, hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), overactive bladder, dystonia (involuntary muscle contractions), neck and shoulder spasms (cervical dystonia), and gastroparesis (delayed stomach emptying). Despite the large doses used in these medical treatments, children with neurospasticity disorders remain safe, demonstrating that Botox is not toxic in these controlled applications. At Geometry Clinic, we offer Botox as a safe and effective solution for both cosmetic and therapeutic needs, delivering subtle, natural results with minimal downtime. Rest assured, Botox is safe when administered appropriately for your specific needs..

1. What is Botox and how does it work?

Botox is a purified protein injected into targeted facial muscles to temporarily relax them, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by facial expressions. It works by blocking nerve signals, allowing the muscles to relax and smooth out the skin.

2. Which areas can Botox injections treat?

Botox can effectively treat multiple areas including forehead lines, frown lines (glabella), crow’s feet, bunny lines, jawline slimming, neck bands, gummy smile, lip flip, chin dimples, and more. It’s a versatile treatment for facial enhancement.

3. How long do Botox results last?

The effects of Botox typically last for 3-4 months, though this may vary depending on individual factors and the areas treated. Maintenance treatments are required to sustain the results.

4. Is Botox a safe procedure?

Yes, Botox is FDA-approved and is widely considered a safe cosmetic treatment when administered by a qualified and experienced professional. It has a long history of safe use for both aesthetic and medical purposes.

5. How soon will I see Botox results?

You will typically start seeing results from Botox within 3-5 days, with full results visible in about two weeks. Botox provides a subtle, natural-looking enhancement to your facial appearance.

6. Is there any downtime after Botox injections?

There is minimal downtime after Botox injections. You may experience slight redness or swelling at the injection site, but these side effects are usually temporary and resolve within a few hours. You can return to most activities right after treatment.

7. Does Botox hurt?

Botox injections cause minimal discomfort, often described as a slight pinch. To reduce discomfort, we can use numbing cream or ice before the procedure.

8. What is the cost of Botox at Geometry Clinic?

The cost of Botox varies depending on the area treated and the amount of Botox used. We offer personalized consultations to determine the most accurate pricing for your specific needs.

9. Who is an ideal candidate for Botox?

Botox is suitable for most adults who want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. If you’re in good health and seeking a non-invasive way to enhance your facial appearance, Botox may be right for you. We provide tailored consultations to assess your needs.

10. Are there any side effects of Botox?

Botox is generally very safe, with minor side effects such as bruising, swelling, or mild headaches. Serious side effects are rare and usually occur when the procedure is not performed by a trained professional.

11. Can Botox be used for medical conditions?

Yes, Botox is used to treat various medical conditions such as chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), bruxism (teeth grinding), and TMJ disorders. Botox offers therapeutic benefits in addition to aesthetic ones.

12. How often should I get Botox treatments?

Botox is typically reapplied every 3-4 months to maintain optimal results. The frequency of treatments will depend on individual factors and desired outcomes. During your consultation, we can determine the ideal treatment plan.

13. Can Botox be combined with other aesthetic treatments?

Yes, Botox can be combined with other treatments such as dermal fillers, chemical peels, or laser therapy to enhance overall facial rejuvenation. We will help you create a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.

14. Will Botox make me look frozen or expressionless?

When administered correctly, Botox enhances your natural features without making you look frozen. It should soften wrinkles and fine lines while maintaining your ability to express yourself. You can request a more relaxed or more dramatic result depending on your preference.

15. What is the free 2-week touch-up?

A free 2-week touch-up is offered after your initial Botox treatment to ensure the best possible results. If needed, you can return between 2 and 3 weeks after your first session for adjustments to areas that may require fine-tuning.

16. How much does Botox cost at Geometry Clinic?

The cost of Botox depends on the areas being treated and the amount of Botox required. A consultation is the best way to determine the price for your personalized Botox treatment.

17. Will my muscles get atrophy after Botox wears off?

No, Botox does not cause muscle atrophy. The effects of Botox are temporary, and once the treatment wears off (usually within 3 to 6 months), muscle activity returns to normal. Botox works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, leading to relaxed muscles. It does not damage the muscle, and there is no long-term effect on muscle strength or size. Your muscles will function normally once the Botox wears off, and they will not become weaker or shriveled due to the treatment.

18. Will my skin sag after Botox wears off?

No, Botox will not cause your skin to sag. Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles beneath the skin, which smooths wrinkles and lines. Once the Botox wears off, the muscle activity returns, but the skin does not automatically sag or droop. Botox does not affect the elasticity of your skin. However, over time, natural aging processes, sun exposure, and lifestyle factors can cause skin to lose firmness. To maintain a youthful appearance, regular treatments and proper skin care are recommended. If you're concerned about skin aging, additional treatments like skin boosters or collagen-stimulating fillers can complement Botox and help maintain skin firmness.

19. Can Botox cause cancer?

No, Botox does not cause cancer. Botox is a purified protein derived from botulinum toxin, and it has been used safely for both medical and cosmetic purposes for many years. Extensive studies and clinical trials have shown that Botox, when administered in appropriate doses by trained professionals, does not have carcinogenic properties and is not linked to cancer.

However, as with any medical treatment, it is important to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider to ensure that Botox is safe and suitable for you based on your individual health history.

20. What brands of anti-wrinkle injections are available at Geometry Clinic?

At Geometry Clinic, we primarily use two trusted brands of anti-wrinkle injections: Nuceiva (Evolus) and Botox(Allergan). Among these, Nuceiva is the most popular choice due to its ability to deliver faster results and a slightly longer-lasting effect compared to Botox. Both brands are highly effective, but Nuceiva’s quick onset and durability make it a preferred option for many of our clients. As always, all treatments are administered by our experienced and certified professionals to ensure the best possible results.

21. What is Preventative Botox?

Preventative Botox is used to minimize the development of active wrinkles by relaxing facial muscles responsible for repetitive movements, such as frowning or raising the eyebrows. It is most effective for individuals who are prone to dynamic wrinkles. However, Botox should only be done when there is a clear indication. If you do not develop wrinkles with facial expressions, such as lifting your eyebrows or frowning, it may not be necessary. This is due to natural variations in facial muscle anatomy among individuals.

22. What is Baby Botox?

Baby Botox uses a smaller amount of Botox to achieve subtle, natural-looking results by softening fine lines and wrinkles without freezing facial expressions. Due to the reduced dose, the longevity of results is typically shorter than traditional Botox treatments.
