Continue reading to learn more about Botox injections and why they might be right for you.

What is Botox?

They say wrinkles are a sign of wisdom. But in reality, most wrinkles are just the result of muscles contracting. 

Botox is an injectable wrinkle muscle relaxer that treats dynamic wrinkles using botulinum toxin type A, designed to inhibit communication between the nerves and injected area of the face so the muscles can no longer contract and cause wrinkles; This injection causes the treated muscles to relax muscles temporarily, reducing the look of wrinkles in areas such as the forehead and around the eyes.

Here at Houston Injections, our Botox injections are your effective go-to solution in the battle against aging skin, helping you regain your confidence and youthful appearance.

What Happens During a Botox Treatment?

Consultation

When you visit us here at Houston Injections, we require you to receive a consultation so we can fully understand your skin care goals and the desired results you’re looking to achieve.

We’ll map out the proper areas so that we can target the wrinkles you’re looking to minimize. We’ll also discuss any pre-existing medical conditions to ensure Botox is right for you. 

Day of Botox Treatment

On the day of your treatment, which often occurs the same day as your consultation, one of our skilled providers will prep your skin for the injection; This includes cleaning the area and applying a topical anesthetic. 

Following this, we’ll inject the targeted muscles with Botox using a fine needle. Most patients don’t experience much pain or discomfort — at most, you’ll feel a slight stinging at the injection site.  

Once the procedure is complete, we’ll provide you with aftercare instructions and work with you to schedule any follow-up appointments.

After Botox Treatment 

Now, the best part of your Botox treatment process — results!

While you may start to see a reduction of wrinkles within the first week of treatment, the full effects of Botox typically don’t set in until 15 days following the injection; however, this varies based on each individual. There is no downtime needed, however, we recommend avoiding exercise and alcohol for at least 24 hours to avoid added swelling or bruising. 

The results typically last between three to six months. To maintain continued results, we recommend keeping up with follow-up treatments.
