Botox treatment is for patients who want to keep their skin looking and feeling young. Botox is a safe and effective way to reduce the muscle activity in the face. As a result, your forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, “eleven” lines and much more can be smoothed (in many cases entirely). Botox is naturally metabolized by the body in about three months, making it a safe treatment option for patients who have never tried it and those who have alike.
A consultation appointment will be completed first, where Dr. Dow or Dr. Fisher will evaluate the strength of the muscle activity and determine the proper dosage of Botox for a good result. Photographs may be taken, and markings may be placed on the skin. The doctors will go over pre- and post-treatment instructions with you at this first appointment as well. Then you’ll return for a second visit where the Botox will be administered. Photos and documentation will again be made so that we can assess the outcome of the treatment and ensure future visits are smooth (pun intended).
After the administration of Botox, patients will return in 2 weeks to assess the outcome, and determine if any enhancements need to be made to provide the best aesthetic result. Patients will then be on their own to determine their frequency schedule, but typically can return after 3 months for continued maintenance. We are proud to add Botox to our treatment options for patients who desire the highest level of aesthetic care. Come see us for your consultation today!
