Women and men who want to look naturally refreshed choose neuromodulators like BOTOX at our Eugene, Oregon, med spa.

Benefits of BOTOX

While BOTOX is a go-to for minimizing wrinkles, the FDA has also approved it to temporarily treat many other concerns, from easing migraines to reducing urinary incontinence and treating excessive underarm sweating—a condition called hyperhidrosis.

When used for cosmetic improvements, BOTOX can improve the appearance of:

• Crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes
• Horizontal forehead creases
• Vertical frown lines between the eyebrows
• Gummy smile
• Smoker’s lines
• Bunny lines
• Downturned corners of the mouth

How Does BOTOX Work?

Knowing how facial wrinkles and lines develop is an important part of understanding how BOTOX and Dysport®—another wrinkle relaxer—work to reduce signs of aging.

Our faces change expressions hundreds of times a day throughout our lives. Think about what happens when you squint, frown, or look surprised. These repeated expressions form lines or creases and, eventually, become etched into your skin. They are commonly referred to as the “dynamic wrinkles” targeted by BOTOX injections.

Both BOTOX and Dysport are considered neuromodulators. When we inject them into specific areas, they block nerve signals that cause the muscles in the treated areas to contract. Relaxed muscles allow the facial skin to smooth out, gradually softening wrinkles. Even though both BOTOX and Dysport are effective, some patients respond better to one versus the other. Our med spa team helps you determine which product is best for you.

What To Expect During BOTOX Treatment

Most patients experience minimal discomfort from BOTOX. The procedure itself lasts only about 15 minutes, and you can return to your routine right away. However, we recommend postponing vigorous exercise until the day after your treatment. You may experience some bruising or redness, but these minor side effects resolve on their own.

Hillary and her team prioritize your safety while delivering balanced, natural-looking results that are never “overdone.” With BOTOX, you can bid farewell to wrinkles and return from your lunch break looking fresh and fabulous!
