Soften unwanted expression lines
BOTOX is a popular cosmetic treatment derived from botulinum toxin, designed to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. By temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for expression lines, BOTOX smooths out the skin, offering a rejuvenated look. Commonly used to treat areas such as the forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines, BOTOX is a minimally invasive procedure with no downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately. At Atelier Aesthetix, our providers ensure precise and natural-looking results tailored to your goals.

How does BOTOX work?
BOTOX works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, specifically targeting acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contractions. Injected in small, controlled doses, BOTOX temporarily paralyzes the muscles in the treated area, preventing them from contracting and forming wrinkles. This relaxation of the muscles smooths out existing lines and prevents new ones from forming. The effects are localized and typically last for three to six months, after which the treated muscles gradually regain their ability to contract.

BOTOX FAQs
What should I do before my BOTOX appointment?
Before your BOTOX appointment, avoid consuming alcohol and taking blood-thinning medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or certain supplements for at least 24 hours to minimize the risk of bruising. Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup or lotions. Discuss any concerns or medical conditions with your practitioner to ensure a safe and effective treatment.
Can BOTOX treat medical conditions?
Yes, BOTOX is FDA-approved for treating various medical conditions, including chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), overactive bladder, and muscle spasticity. It works by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contractions or gland activity, providing relief from these medical conditions.
When will I see the results of my BOTOX treatment?
You can expect to see results from your BOTOX treatment within 3 to 5 days, with full effects visible after about two weeks. As the muscles relax, the treated areas will gradually appear smoother and more youthful. If it’s your first time, it might take longer to see the initial effects.
How long do BOTOX results last?
BOTOX results typically last 3 to 6 months. The exact duration can vary depending on factors such as the treated area, your metabolism, and how your muscles respond to the treatment. Regular maintenance sessions can help prolong the effects over time.
Who should avoid BOTOX treatments?
BOTOX is generally safe for most people, but certain individuals should avoid it. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with neuromuscular disorders, or those with known allergies to botulinum toxin should not undergo BOTOX treatments. During your consultation, it’s essential to disclose your full medical history and any medications you’re taking.
Is BOTOX treatment painful?
BOTOX injections involve minimal discomfort. The needles used are very fine, and most patients describe the sensation as a slight pinch or sting. If you are concerned about pain, a topical numbing cream can be applied to the treatment area before the injections.
Are there any side effects of BOTOX?
The side effects of BOTOX may include redness, swelling, bruising at the injection site, headache, and flu-like symptoms for a few days. Rarely, patients may experience drooping of the eyelids or eyebrows, which usually resolves within a few weeks.
What is the recovery time after BOTOX treatment?
Most patients experience little to no downtime and can resume daily activities immediately. However, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, lying down, or rubbing the treated areas for the first 24 hours to prevent the BOTOX from spreading to unintended areas.
