What is Botox®?

Botox is a non-surgical, FDA-approved injectable that has helped millions of Americans and people from 78 countries. It is an incredibly popular cosmetic treatment that has been well studied and used by doctors for years. Botox has shown effective in improving the appearance of contraction-induced wrinkles between the eyebrows, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. It is safe, effective and simple, requiring no downtime.*

Many new patients worry about looking “frozen” or that they will not look natural when expressing themselves after Botox. However, when done correctly Botox can look completely natural while enhancing your natural look. Botox is the #1 treatment of its kind in the world, and for good reason! It has provided 11 million people with remarkable results that have turned back time.

How does Botox® work?

Botox works by targeting certain facial muscles and temporarily limiting the movement of the muscles causing the wrinkles. Botox uses a refined version of a neurotoxin, Clostridium botulinum, which blocks signals from nerves to muscles, causing the muscles to relax and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Results may last up to 4 months and will vary from individual to individual.*

What does Botox® treat?

Botox is an extremely versatile cosmetic treatment, as it can treat a variety of cosmetic and medical conditions. It is a minimally invasive procedure that can help those who want to restore youthfulness and smoothness to different facial areas. Furthermore, while many think Botox is only for the face, it has many different uses!

Botox® works best in the following areas:

  • Crows feet
  • Frown lines between the eyebrows
  • Forehead lines and wrinkles
  • Jawline (masseter muscles)
  • Excessive underarm sweating
  • Nose wrinkles (bunny lines)

Even if you haven’t begun to have problems related to aging and do not need corrective procedures, Botox can be a great option for you too! Preventative Botox can bring more symmetry to the face and can slow down the aging process.

Botox For Men

Men who struggle with age lines and wrinkles can also benefit from Botox! This treatment has recently gained a lot of traction with men, and is occasionally called “Brotox.” Just like for women, it can help patients appear more youthful and energized.

If these are issues that you struggle with and want to treat without expensive and invasive surgical procedures, it may be time to give Botox at Skin Refine Medspa in Sunnyvale a try!

What is the procedure like?

The Botox procedure is fast and simple. Furthermore, many of our patients report that the procedure is easy and comfortable. Before the procedure, we require that all patients undergo a consultation. During the consultation you can speak with one of our expert injectors about your desired results. Depending on the severity of wrinkles or lines, the number of injections needed will vary. Your practitioner will be able to evaluate your skin and your needs to determine this.

The procedure is very fast and many patients get Botox in the Sunnyvale area done on their lunch break! There is no downtime or recovery, so patients are free to go back to work or normal activities immediately after the procedure.

Beautiful facility, easy parking, welcoming staff, and the woman who administered my treatment was informative, totally listened to my needs, goals, and fears, and did not make me feel like she was trying to upsell at all. I couldn't have been more impressed by my overall experience and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I love coming here. Everyone is extremely friendly and professional.

When will I see results?

Results will vary, but many patients start to see results of the treatment in just a few days as the Botox takes effect. Optimal results will be apparent about two weeks after the procedure. The best results generally last anywhere from 3-4 months. At this time, we recommend that the procedure is repeated to maintain your desired results.

Botox® results last best when:

  • They are done by a professional injector
  • Patients refrain from excessive sun exposure
  • Proper upkeep of Botox treatments is done
