FAQ’s

Q - What is Botox® and how does it work?

A – Botox® is a purified protein that works by blocking the nerve impulses that engage certain muscles. Within a few days the overlying skin relaxes, smoothing out any undesired wrinkles.

Q - Is Botox® safe?

A – Botox® (Clostridium botulinum) is one of the most extensively tested substances in the world and has been used for over 30 years in both cosmetic and therapeutic uses. It is a purified protein (not a toxin or poison) that is perfectly safe. There have been no reported instances of severe allergic reactions or side effects. The results are temporary and Botox® metabolises as a natural organic substance in your body.

Q - How long does Botox® last?

A – Depending on the area treated, results appear within 27 days and can last up to 6 months. The effects can be prolonged with regular follow up visits and often last longer with more treatments occurring over time.

Q - Does Botox® hurt?

A – The procedure is very quick (never longer than 10 minutes) and uses a very tiny needle. It is relatively painless and some patients even find it relaxing. Of course, numbing cream can be used if desired, but it is not necessary.

Q - Are there any Botox® side effects?

A – There are no serious side effects but there may be minor redness and/or swelling at the injection site that usually subsides within an hour or so. In rare cases, some patients experience headaches, tightness or bruising but these typically resolve themselves within a few days.
