Botox

What is

Botox?

Botox is one of the most widely used non-surgical cosmetic treatments for reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. The treatment involves injecting a purified form of botulinum toxin into specific facial muscles to temporarily relax them. By reducing muscle activity, Botox smooths dynamic wrinkles that appear when the face moves, such as smiling, frowning, or raising the eyebrows.

At Dew Derm Aesthetic & Dermatology, Botox injections are performed by experienced specialists who carefully analyze facial muscle movement and design a customized treatment plan to maintain natural facial expressions while improving skin smoothness and overall facial appearance.

Botox has become a popular treatment for individuals seeking a refreshed, youthful look without surgery or downtime.

How Botox

Works

Facial wrinkles are often caused by repeated muscle contractions over time. When Botox is injected into specific muscles, it temporarily blocks the nerve signals that cause these muscles to contract.

As a result, the muscles relax and the skin above them becomes smoother. This helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and prevents new lines from becoming deeper over time.

The treatment does not affect the surrounding muscles, allowing the face to maintain natural expressions while softening lines in targeted areas

Areas That Can Be Treated with Botox

Botox injections can effectively treat multiple areas of the face, including:

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
  • Crow’s feet around the eyes
  • Bunny lines on the nose
  • Chin dimpling
  • Neck bands
  • Brow lifting in some cases

Botox can also be used in certain medical and aesthetic treatments such as jaw slimming and excessive sweating treatment.

  • Provides natural-looking results
  • Non-surgical procedure

  • Notice expression lines on the forehead or around the eyes

Frequently Asked

Questions

How long do Botox results last?

The effects of Botox typically last three to six months, depending on the individual’s metabolism, lifestyle, and the treated area. Over time, muscle activity gradually returns and wrinkles may slowly reappear.

Many patients schedule regular maintenance treatments to maintain smoother skin and prevent wrinkles from deepening.

Botox injections involve very fine needles and are generally well tolerated. Most patients describe the sensation as a small pinch that lasts only a few seconds.

The treatment is quick and usually does not require anesthesia, although a topical numbing cream may be applied for additional comfort if needed.

Initial improvements can often be noticed within three to five days after the injection. The full results typically appear within 10 to 14 days as the muscles gradually relax and the skin becomes smoother.

Patients are usually advised to wait two weeks before evaluating the final results.

Botox requires little to no downtime. Most patients return to their daily activities immediately after the treatment.

However, doctors may recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, rubbing the treated area, or lying down for several hours after the procedure to ensure optimal results.

When performed by experienced specialists, Botox results look very natural. The goal of treatment is not to freeze facial expressions but to soften wrinkles while maintaining the ability to smile, frown, and express emotions naturally.

At Dew Derm, Botox injections are carefully administered to achieve balanced, subtle, and natural-looking outcomes.
