At Biotech Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Spa in Bay Harbor Islands, FL, we know that living with fine lines, moderate lines, or more severe wrinkles can be discouraging. However, there is a safe and effective solution that can help smooth these wrinkles temporarily and deliver long-lasting results. Miami Botox, the original cosmetic injectable, can transform your appearance, smooth those lines and wrinkles, and give you a confidence boost.
Where Are the Best Places To Get Botox?
One of the benefits of Miami Botox is that it is a versatile cosmetic injectable that is FDA-approved to treat multiple areas of the face. It doesn’t just target one area but three. The best place to receive this injectable is exactly where you need it. If you have dynamic wrinkles that have formed on your forehead, in between your eyebrows, or at the outer corners of your eyes due to repetitive expressions, then you may be the perfect candidate for this neuromodulator.
The Forehead
The forehead is one of the most prominent areas of the face, so if you have lines and wrinkles in this area, they will be noticeable. Even if you notice them more than others, you don’t have to live with them. Injections into the forehead muscles with this cosmetic injectable will smooth these lines and wrinkles to erase them temporarily.
The Outer Corners of the Eyes
Wrinkles that form at the outer corners of the eyes are called crow’s feet. Crow’s feet form from squinting, smiling, and laughing expressions over time. If you want to treat your frown lines, this injectable can be administered into the muscles at the outer corners of the eyes to temporarily smooth the skin and help you feel more confident in your appearance.
Between the Eyebrows
Another popular location where patients receive this injectable is between the eyebrows. Frown lines are those indents that form between the eyebrows and resemble the number 11. These lines can be light, moderate, or severe, but regardless, they can make you look older or angrier than you are.
Injections into the muscles around the eyebrows can help temporarily relax those muscles so that you no longer make exaggerated frowning expressions, which always leads to the deepening of wrinkles over time.
Alternative Locations
There are many skilled injectors who choose to administer this injectable into alternative locations. Some injectors will perform a treatment called the lip flip to relax muscles around the mouth to make the upper lip appear larger. Others use this cosmetic injectable to treat medical concerns like TMJ, migraines, and hyperhidrosis.
Migraines and TMJ pain, among other muscular-related conditions, can often be alleviated by relaxing the muscles that cause and create tension. Additionally, this injectable can be injected into some specific regions of the armpit to treat hyperhidrosis, a condition in which patients experience extreme sweating due to overactive sweat glands.
Frequently Asked Questions
How Many Units Will I Need?
The total number of units that you will need will completely depend upon the severity of your lines and wrinkles and the aesthetic look you are going for. It’s impossible to determine the total number of units you will need to address your problem areas if we’ve never been able to evaluate them in person. A pre-treatment consultation will enable us to learn more about you and your goals.
We will also use this time to explain more about the treatment. During this consultation, we can provide you with a better idea of how many units you will need to address your specific problem areas so that you can plan ahead and know exactly what your treatment plan will look like.
How Long Will My Results Last?
Once treated with this cosmetic injectable, you will notice results within a week and enjoy those results for anywhere from three to six months. Different patients experience different length results based on how quickly their bodies metabolize the product.
After your first injection, you will be able to get a better idea of the rate at which your body metabolizes the product. Then, you will know when to schedule your follow-up treatments. On average, most patients schedule treatments every three to four months.
How Often Will I Need To Schedule Treatments?
Once you begin treatment with Miami Botox, you will need to schedule follow-up treatments every few months or as soon as you begin to see your results fade. As your body metabolizes the product, you’ll notice that you’ll regain movement in your treatment areas, and you will begin to see lines and wrinkles reappear.
To maintain the most consistent-looking appearance, all you have to do is schedule treatments every three to four months as needed. Regular follow-up treatments will help keep wrinkles at bay and enjoy smooth and youthful-looking skin long-term.
Is the Treatment Process Painful?
Cosmetic injectables have very fine, thin needles, which make the injection process virtually painless. If you are worried about needles, you don’t need to be. Still, to ensure added comfort, we can apply a topical numbing solution to your planned treatment area before administering the injectable to ensure that you don’t feel a thing.
Will I Look Natural?
We take pride in the skills of our expert injectors at Biotech Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Spa. Miami Botox is an injectable that requires skill and precision for the best results. You can trust the injectors at our office to listen to your concerns and develop a treatment plan that helps you achieve your desired results. You’ll have natural and subtle-looking results that make you look more youthful and well-rested and will help you feel more confident in your appearance.
When Will I See Results?
You won’t see immediate results after your treatment is over, but you will see them quickly. You’ll begin to notice a change in the appearance of the wrinkles within two to three days of your treatment, and results will be more visible by seven days post-treatment.
The best results will appear within 30 days of your initial injection appointment. It takes time for the ingredients to relax the muscles in your treatment area, but when they do, you’ll notice a stark difference between your pre-and-post Miami Botox face.
What Happens During the Treatment Process?
When you arrive at your appointment, one of our injectors will cleanse your skin to sanitize it before administering the injectable. Then, a series of injections will be made in your target treatment area. These injections will be administered to the muscles responsible for your lines and wrinkles. This process is quick and takes a few minutes to complete. Once it’s over, you’ll be able to resume your normal daily activities.
Is There Any Downtime?
Miami Botox is a cosmetic treatment also known as a lunchtime injectable because you can schedule your appointment during your lunch break if necessary. You won’t have to take any time off work and can go back to your normal daily routine once your treatment is over. We will provide you with some post-treatment instructions that you must follow to ensure that you achieve the best results. These instructions may include some of the following directives:
- Avoid excess sun exposure
- Avoid strenuous workouts for 24 hours post-treatment
- Avoid blood-thinning supplements and medications
- Avoid touching the treatment areas
- Keep your head elevated for at least four hours post-treatment.
- Avoid heat and anything that puts pressure on your treatment area
Your injector will provide you with a detailed list of post-treatment instructions so that you know exactly how to care for the injection sites in the days following your treatment.
Who Is a Candidate?
The best candidates for this injectable are healthy men and women who want to smooth lines and wrinkles on the upper half of their faces that have formed from dynamic facial movements. Patients should be free of infections in the planned treatment sites and understand that this treatment only delivers temporary results.
Consistent results require regular follow-up treatments. Pregnant or nursing women will not qualify for treatment. An initial consultation is an important step in the process because it helps us determine if this treatment is right for you.
