WHY BOTOX® COSMETIC WORKS
BOTOX® Cosmetic is the first and only treatment FDA-approved to temporarily make moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines look better in adults. So you look like you, only with less noticeable facial lines.
It’s a quick 10-minute treatment with minimal downtime. You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with results lasting up to 4 months for moderate to severe frown lines.
HOW BOTOX® COSMETIC WORKS
A combination of factors can cause facial lines. It’s not just about the cellular changes that may occur, or reduction of collagen, or damage caused by free radicals from the sun and the environment.
Repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, or raising eyebrows cause skin to furrow and fold, gradually resulting in the formation of facial lines. BOTOX® Cosmetic works beneath the surface and temporarily reduces the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults – to help them look visibly smoother.

Sydney is highly knowledgeable and truly skilled at what she does.
June 2, 2023I’ve tried multiple injectors from plastic surgeons to estheticians, and after my appointment with Sydney I knew she was the best. Sydney is highly knowledgeable and truly skilled at what she does. I’ve tried to dissolve my lip filler for years. After one appointment with her, my problem areas are already gone. Botox was very well done. The girls at the front desk are so nice and everyone here made the experience enjoyable.
Awesome!!
Dec. 23, 2022I’m so glad I found this office; Injector Joss is simply amazing. She’s highly knowledgeable and takes the time to listen to your “face” goals and give you solid realistic suggestions and expectations. I would not let anyone else near my face!
