What Is Botox?

Non-surgical injectable shaping agents can help eliminate some facial wrinkles and slow the development of new ones. Botox® Cosmetic is a Botulinum toxin injection administered by a doctor to smooth frown lines and wrinkles between the eyebrows temporarily.

Botox can also be used off-label to smooth out wrinkles in the forehead and address smile lines around the eyes, commonly known as “crow’s feet.” It is the only treatment of this type that is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This procedure is best for wrinkles that are forming or have formed from repeated muscle contractions like frowning and smiling. It does not improve wrinkles related to sun damage or sagging skin or replace the need for a face or brow lift. Understanding the limitations of botulinum toxin and having reasonable expectations are essential to be a good candidate.

Dr. Anthony Tran is a board-certified plastic surgeon who can safely inject Botox and offer other necessary treatments.

What Can Botox Treat?

Botox addresses various facial concerns, including:

• Frown lines between the eyebrows
• Forehead lines
• Crow’s feet around the eyes
• Bunny lines on the nose

These treatments result in a smoother, more youthful appearance without surgery.

Ideal Candidates for Botox

Botox is ideal for adults who want to soften facial wrinkles without surgery. It works best for those with mild to moderate lines caused by repetitive facial movements, such as frowning or squinting. Candidates should be in good overall health, not pregnant or nursing, and have realistic expectations about results. If you’re looking for a non-surgical solution for wrinkle treatment in Arlington, a consultation will help determine if Botox is right for you.

Your Consultation

During your first visit, Dr. Tran will ask you about your desired results. It will help him understand your expectations and let you know if they can be realistically accomplished. Dr. Tran will analyze your face and also recommend other noninvasives, such as fillers or chemicals, to achieve your goals. After your consultation, photographs will be taken for your medical record and additional analysis.

Most healthy patients are good candidates for the procedure. You will be asked about any conditions that could pose complications, so providing complete and accurate information is essential. Treatment is not recommended for those who are pregnant or have a neurological condition.

How Is Botox® Injected?

A very small amount of the agent is injected into several areas on your face using a fine micro-needle. Because the needle and quantity are so small, minimal pain is felt. There is usually a minor sting that disappears after a few seconds and no discomfort after the procedure is complete. No anesthesia is required, and you can immediately return to normal activities. The procedure takes 15 to 30 minutes and is performed in the office.

What Should I Know About My Results?

The results of the injections usually take about two to three days before they are fully apparent and last up to four months before they wear off. At that time, another injection is required. After several treatments, the effects may last longer, sometimes up to eight months.

Recovery Tips

Botox requires little to no downtime, so you can return to most activities immediately. To ensure the best results, avoid touching or massaging the treated areas for 24 hours and stay upright for four hours. Strenuous exercise, saunas, hot showers, and alcohol should be avoided for a day to reduce bruising and maintain effectiveness. Mild swelling or redness is normal and usually fades within hours.

Dr. Tran will provide aftercare instructions to help you achieve optimal results.
