Do You Need a Botox Treatment?

Could Botox treatment help you improve your appearance? The injectable cosmetic treatment offered by your Dr. Alex of A E Skin in Encino, CA, offers a simple way to look more youthful.

How Botox can help you

Botox softens lines that form when you laugh, smile, squint, or frown. Called "dynamic" expressions, these lines temporarily appear, then vanish when you change your expression - at least when you're younger. Over time, the lines can become a permanent part of your face.

Fortunately, Botox treatment with Dr. Alex at A E Skin in Encino, CA can smooth fine lines and wrinkles that may make you look tired, older, or even angry. Botox injections contain a purified protein that relaxes the muscles you use to make dynamic expressions. When the muscles no longer contract when you make expressions, your skin becomes smoother and less wrinkled.

Botox treatment is often used to:

  • Make Vertical Lines Between the Eyes Less Obvious: Botox smooths the "11" lines that tend to form between your eyebrows.
  • Relax Crow's Feet: Botox also treats the network of fine lines that radiates from the outside corners of your eyes.
  • Decrease Forehead Furrows: Horizontal forehead lines soften after Botox treatment.
  • Target Mouth Wrinkles: Lines around your mouth become much less noticeable after your Botox session.

Are you just noticing fine lines for the first time? Preventative Botox in your twenties and thirties can help you retrain your muscles to avoid making expressions that lead to wrinkles.

Botox treatment process

Your Botox treatment will only take a few minutes. During the treatment, a burst of cold air numbs your skin and reduces pain. After your Botox treatment, avoid heat exposure, alcohol consumption, and strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours and stay upright without bending forward or lying flat for the first four hours. Over the course of the next week, you'll begin to see the positive effects of your treatment. Botox results usually last about three to four months. Fortunately, it's easy to maintain your results by scheduling Botox injections on a regular basis.
