If you want to look youthful and fresh, Botox® treatments are a quick and lasting way to get results. One spa visit can leave you wrinkle-free for months and can also help with certain medical conditions. To help you decide whether this treatment is for you, here are answers to some commonly asked questions.

What to Know About Botox

What is Botox for?

The most common use of this treatment is to smooth out wrinkles on the face and neck. Botox injections can also halt muscle spasms, excessive sweating, and chronic migraines. Problems like a lazy eye or overactive bladder that can be traced to muscular issues can also be helped by this process.

How does it work?

Botox uses a compound taken from botulinum bacteria. It blocks the nerves that control muscle movement. By carefully applying the compound to specific muscles through the use of injections, the treatment relaxes those areas so the skin over them can smooth out.

What areas does it treat?

This treatment is mostly used for frown lines on the face, particularly the forehead and around the eyes. It can also be applied to most areas of the face, neck, and scalp. To stop sweating, your provider may apply it to the forehead, underarms, palms, or soles of the feet, and it can be used in other areas for muscular issues.

How long does it last?

Most cosmetic Botox treatments kick in after three days to a week and continue to provide results for three to six months. The more sessions you have over time, the longer the results will remain effective. For migraines, you can expect symptoms to ease after 10 to 14 days, and results will last about three months.
