BOTOX®

BOTOX® Cosmetic

Plenty of Atlanta med spas offer BOTOX Cosmetic treatments, but few can provide the personalized attention and experienced injectors we have at our full-service medical spa. BOTOX is the world’s most popular cosmetic treatment because it softens unwanted frown lines and crow’s feet around the eyes, in addition to temporarily minimizing horizontal forehead wrinkles. Getting the results you want, though, requires an experienced injector who understands facial anatomy and produces results that look natural.

BOTOX Side Effects

Numerous studies have shown BOTOX to be an extremely safe and reliable treatment. Bruising at the injection site is the most common side effect following a BOTOX treatment. The bruising usually resolves very quickly. Some patients may develop a rash and swelling at the injection site. Non-treated muscles may be affected but this is very rare. There is an extremely rare allergic reaction to the medication. Do not use BOTOX if you have an infection at the injection site, are allergic to any of its ingredients, are pregnant or think you might be pregnant. Consult with Dr. Larsen before starting treatment if you have any diseases affecting your nerves or muscles.

After Your BOTOX Treatment

Following your injections, you may notice a small fine bump and a little redness. This reaction to the injection usually resolves in 30 minutes to an hour. The following morning if you rub your fingers over the areas that were injected you may find a little sore spot. Strenuous activity should be limited for the first 48 hours following your injections. Most patients can return to work or their daily activities right after they leave our office.

  • The individual injection sites may be slightly tender to touch for 2 to 3 days.
  • There may be a small bruise associated with one of the injection sites (experienced by about 1% of patients at Dr. Larsen’s practice).
  • Patients usually return to everyday activities immediately after the procedure.
  • Patients are advised not to participate in strenuous activity for 48 hours.

Combining Treatments

Many of our patients combine BOTOX injections with our treatments, such as injectable fillers or other facial treatments. Ask our cosmetic specialists about creating a customized treatment plan that can address any skin care concerns you may have.

Botox Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is Botox Cosmetic?2019-11-26T14:53:49-05:00

Botox is an injectable cosmetic to reduce the look of lines and wrinkles. It works by reducing the muscle function of facial muscles that with repeated use can lead to wrinkles. Botox is the only FDA approved cosmetic treatment of it’s kind to temporarily reduce frown lines, crows feet, and forehead lines. 

Botox is a product designed to target repetitive muscle movement, which is one of the underlying causes of fine lines and wrinkles. Botox is injected into the muscle which will temporarily reduce muscle activity. The reduced activity will allow lines and wrinkles to smooth away. 

Many people pair Botox products with cosmetic fillers such as Juvéderm to fill fine lines, plump lips, add volume and more. In fact, when you call to book your consultation feel free to ask us which product combinations would be best for your optimal results. 

How much research has been done on Botox Cosmetic?2019-11-26T14:55:32-05:00

Botox is the most heavily used and researched cosmetic product of its kind. It has over a 16 year track record and approval for use in 98 countries. In fact, the safety and efficacy of Botox has been featured in 528 peer reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals. In summary, Botox has been used for years and has been proven to be safe and effective. Your only regret will be not trying it sooner.  

Is Botox Cosmetic only for women?2019-11-26T14:56:52-05:00

Not at all, men have been using Botox since the beginning but in the last 3 years alone there has been a dramatic rise in men using Botox products. Botox services are the most popular with men between 30-60 and the areas they most want to treat include crows feet, forehead, and frown lines. There is no reason why you should be unhappy with the reflection you see in the mirror, male or female. LUX Med Spa boasts a patient base of both male and female patients, with many men enjoying other LUX services such as skincare treatments and massages, as well.  

How much time does the treatment take?2019-11-26T14:57:55-05:00

A typical Botox appointment will take less than half an hour from start to finish. The actual injection process takes less than 10 minutes. Your master injector will sit with you, discuss your treatment goals and perform a facial analysis to determine your optimal treatment areas. There is a reason Botox is referred to as the “lunch break procedure”. Botox requires minimal downtime so patients can immediately resume work, although they are asked to avoid exercise for the remainder of the day. Patients may experience slight redness on the injection site, which resembles tiny mosquito bites, but this fades very quickly. 

Does it Hurt?2019-11-26T14:59:36-05:00

This is one of the most common questions we receive regarding Botox. Some patients report the feeling of a pinch at the injection site. If you are concerned about discomfort, tell your technician and it’s possible to apply a topical numbing cream to make you more comfortable during your treatments. 

The most common side effect of Botox is bruising at the injection site. This is usually minimal and dissipates within a few days. It is common for the individual injection sites to be tender to the touch for 2-3 days after the procedure.

How long do results last?2019-11-26T15:01:51-05:00

Results will become apparent in 3-10 days, some patients may experience faster onset than others. Maximum results can be seen at two weeks, in which touch ups can be done if necessary. For moderate to severe lines, results can last up to 4 months. But it truly varies from patient to patient as each person’s body chemistry will determine the longevity of the treatment. 

Don’t forget to inquire about cosmetic fillers while your in our office. Botox is an incredible product but sometimes an additional filler is needed to restore youthful fullness to the affected areas and reduce the look of sagging skin or wrinkles. 

Does Botox remove deep wrinkles?2019-11-26T15:04:30-05:00

Yes. Botox is the only FDA approved cosmetic treatment of its kind that temporarily removes the look of frown lines, forehead creases, and crows feet. Although results are better if you begin using treatments before lines are deep, to prevent deep lines. 

How much does Botox Cost?2020-12-07T01:47:02-05:00

The cost of Botox depends on your needs and the number of injections you would need to treat the areas you would like to improve. Treatments in the Atlanta area begin at $200 and increase with each area added. At LUX Med Spa, we currently charge $13 per vile used. We frequently run specials on Botox, as well as offer a membership program called Brilliant Distinctions, which rewards you with points that are emailed to you after each treatment. As money is spent on Botox (and other Allergan products), these rewards can be used as cash toward future treatments.

When can I resume exercise?2019-11-26T15:06:28-05:00

Most patients resume their regular lifestyle within an hour of the procedure. It is recommended that patients resume regular exercise after 24 hours. It is important not to rub or massage the treatment area for 24 hours after the procedure, but most regular daily activities are fine. Patients are also asked to remain upright for 4-6 hours following injections.
