Botox® is the number one cosmetic treatment in the country. Often used to treat moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and many other facial lines, Botox® has proved its worth as an effective cosmetic injectable. While fast-acting, Botox® does not take effect immediately, sometimes taking several days before noticeable results. 

How Does Botox® Work? 

Botox® is the brand name for botulinum toxin. In small doses, as used in cosmetic procedures, this gel-like substance blocks signals between the nerves and muscles. Muscles used to make our most animated facial expressions are often the culprit for wrinkles and lines around the face. Botox® blocks these signals, causing the wrinkles to relax and soften.

How Long Does Botox® Take to Work?

The effects of Botox® may start showing around four days following the procedure; however, Botox® may take up to 14 days to take full effect. 

The results last between 3 and 4 months in the first treatment, depending on the area treated and the dosage. Further treatments may lengthen the time results last–in some cases, up to 6 months. 

Why Does Botox® Take Time?

Botox® binds to the protein SNARE, which sends chemical signals to tell the muscles to move. The Botox® stops the signal. While it binds quickly to the protein, the act of stopping the signal takes several days. Once the muscles stop contracting, the lines and wrinkles relax, causing an improvement in the appearance of the skin.

Am I a Good Candidate for Botox®?

Botox® is an excellent treatment for anyone wanting a non-surgical option to reduce signs of aging due to frown lines, crow’s feet, or glabellar lines (wrinkles between the eyebrows). People under 18 years of age or who struggle with a neurological disease may not be a good candidate for Botox®. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding also may not be good candidates. Consult with one of Rejuve Med Spa’s experts to discuss whether Botox® is the best option for you. 

I have gone to Rejuve Med Spa for over 2 years to have Botox treatments done by Karen Brown. I have been doing Botox for over 10 years now and Karen Brown is the only person who ever has done my treatments without ever bruising me. I have gone to doctors that have left bruising but never with Karen. She is the BEST and I will always continue to receive my botox treatments from her. I have sent several friends to Rejuve too and they were completely satisfied with Karen Brown. Please keep her at Rejuve because she is definitely a asset to your company.
