How BOTOX® Helps Achieve a Youthful Look by Smoothing Wrinkles
&srotate=0)
Maintaining a youthful look for longer is top of mind for countless men and women, with many of them turning to cosmetic injections to help virtually take years off the clock or even slow the progression of certain signs of aging. One of the most popular cosmetic injectables used today is BOTOX, which aims specifically to smooth away dynamic lines and wrinkles associated with repetitive facial expressions —like smiling, laughing, and squinting.
At Imperial Dermatology, double board-certified dermatologists Dr. Simona Bartos and Dr. Gregory Bartos, along with our dedicated team of aesthetic specialists, offer wrinkle-relaxing BOTOX injections in Hollywood, FL to help patients enjoy the younger, refreshed look they desire without the need for invasive surgery. Here, you'll find more information about how BOTOX works for wrinkles, which kinds of wrinkles can be treated with BOTOX, and more.
Will I look younger with BOTOX?
While the results of BOTOX injections can vary somewhat from person to person, most patients do enjoy a more youthful appearance, as BOTOX works to smooth out facial lines and wrinkles associated with aging. These include:
- Forehead lines
- Lines between the brows (glabellar lines – or 1, 11, or 111 lines)
- Crow's feet
- Smile lines
- Frown lines
- Laugh lines
Will my face look too tight after BOTOX?
When injected properly by an experienced professional, BOTOX results can appear remarkably natural and subtle yet strikingly beautiful. Prior to injection, one of our knowledgeable providers will discuss your ideal outcome and tailor your BOTOX treatment— including how to align it with your goals.
Can BOTOX prevent wrinkles?
While BOTOX is most often thought of as a solution for reducing lines and wrinkles that are already present, it can help slow the development or progression of expressive lines. This approach, known as preventive BOTOX, can be used by adult patients of almost any age who are looking to take a proactive step in their anti-aging beauty routine.
Does BOTOX make wrinkles go away completely?
Again, the results of BOTOX will differ between patients based on unique, individual factors like muscle strength, skin laxity, and others. In some cases, BOTOX can help relax certain dynamic lines and wrinkles, while other wrinkles may still be somewhat visible — though dramatically reduced, in most cases. After evaluating areas of concern and discussing goals, we will work with you on a BOTOX treatment plan that can help you achieve the most optimal results possible.
How often do you have to get BOTOX?
On average, most patients enjoy the effects of BOTOX for about 3 – 4 months before lines and wrinkles begin to reappear. This can vary based on several factors, including the patient's level of physical activity. Should you notice the unwanted reappearance of wrinkles earlier than expected, repeat BOTOX injections can be given to restore a smoother, youthful appearance once again.
