Botox

What is Botox?

Botox is a cosmetic injection that temporarily minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your face. The cosmetic injection is FDA approved to treat moderate to severe:

• Crow’s feet
• Forehead wrinkles

The injection temporarily stops muscle activity that causes skin folding which leads to lines and wrinkles. 

As you get older, the structure of your skin changes and thins, making it more susceptible to the development of lines and wrinkles. Aging also diminishes the subcutaneous layer of fat under your skin that buffers the skin from your muscles. 

What happens during Botox injections?

The team of women’s health experts at Philadelphia Women's Health & Wellness develops personalized Botox treatment plans to address your specific beauty goals and needs. They review the details of your injections at your consultation so you know what to expect.

Botox injections are performed at the office. To ease pain, the team may apply a topical numbing agent before administering your injection. 

Botox injections take only a few minutes. 

When will I see results from Botox injections?

It may take 2-12 days until you notice improvements after Botox injections. 

How long do Botox last? 

Botox injections keep the lines and wrinkles away for 3-4 months. 

Once you notice the effects of your Botox wearing off, the team at Philadelphia Women's Health & Wellness suggests you contact the office to schedule your next set of injections.
