Botox®
As the years pass, our skin begins to show visible signs of aging—fine lines, wrinkles, and expression lines that can make us look older than we feel.
Fortunately, Botox® offers a refined, non-surgical solution to address these concerns, helping you maintain a smooth, youthful complexion.
What is Botox®?
Botox® is a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the facial muscles responsible for creating dynamic wrinkles—those lines that form due to repetitive facial expressions. By targeting specific muscles, Botox® softens the appearance of wrinkles, allowing the skin to appear smoother and more refreshed.
What Does Botox® Treat?
Botox® is highly effective in addressing several common signs of aging:
Forehead Lines
Smooths out horizontal lines that develop over time due to repeated facial expressions.
Frown Lines
Softens the vertical lines between the brows, often referred to as “11” lines.
Crow’s Feet
Reduces fine lines around the eyes caused by smiling and squinting.
Bunny Lines
Minimizes the lines that appear on the nose when you smile.
Lip Line
Softens the vertical lines above the upper lip, which can form from repetitive lip movements.
Neck Bands
Reduces the appearance of prominent platysmal bands on the neck.

What to Expect During Treatment
At Fresh Face Aesthetics, your Botox® treatment begins with a thorough consultation to understand your aesthetic goals. During the session, the treatment area will be cleansed, and Botox® will be carefully injected using a fine needle. The procedure is quick, typically lasting 15 to 30 minutes, with minimal discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a slight pinch.
How Long Do Results Last?
The results of Botox® generally last between three to four months.
Aftercare Tips
Avoid rubbing the treated area for the first 24 hours to prevent the Botox® from spreading to unintended areas.
Refrain from strenuous exercise on the day of your treatment to minimize the risk of bruising.
Schedule follow-up treatments as recommended to sustain the smooth, refreshed look over time.
