With minimal discomfort and downtime, Botox Cosmetic is a popular anti-aging treatment for adults hoping to soften fine lines and wrinkles.

Botox Cosmetic is a popular injectable treatment that many people associate with the treatment of forehead wrinkles, but it also works to smooth frown lines and crow’s feet, as well as other cosmetic concerns. This trusted injectable medication is available for both men and women who want a subtle, natural look without an invasive procedure or surgery.

What Is Botox Cosmetic?

SKIN CONCERNS Botox Cosmetic CAN TREAT

Without realizing it, the muscles under your skin contract with natural movements every day, from raising your eyebrows, to squinting or frowning. Environmental factors also affect your skin, such as sun exposure and pollution, which can accelerate collagen depletion at a cellular level to contribute to more pronounced wrinkles. Those lines on your forehead and wrinkles around your eyes may seemingly disappear with Botox injections.

Botox can also work well with other dermal fillers or laser procedures for more comprehensive rejuvenation. Scherl Dermatology also performs these other cosmetic procedures, alone or in combination with Botox, to complete your cosmetic regimen and help you create your best look.

What to Expect from Your Botox Cosmetic Procedure

Am I A Good Candidate for Botox Cosmetic Injection?

The fine lines around your eyes may not seem too visible right now, but as you age, they will become more prominent. Age and gender do not determine whether or not you are a good candidate for Botox.”If your brow lines, crow’s feet, or frown lines are bothering you and lowering your confidence, it is time to schedule an appointment with a dermatologist at our medical spa in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. Botox injections can halt the advancement of frown lines and crow’s feet, allowing you to have a natural look without going under the knife. Whether you are 24 or 54, if you want a natural look without an invasive treatment, you may be a good candidate for Botox.

Daxxify is another neuromodulator option offered at Scherl Dermatology.

Recovery from A Botox Treatment

The recovery time needed after a Botox treatment is minimal, and you are able to return to normal daily activities immediately after your procedure. Most people who receive Botox injections do not report long recovery times or side effects beyond some minor bruising at the injection site. Your dermatologist will instruct you to not rub the treated area for 24 hours. Rubbing or massaging the treated area may spread the Botox into different areas where you did not need treatment. If you experience pain after the procedure please contact Scherl Dermatology immediately as it could be a sign of an infection.

Botox Cosmetic Results

Your Botox treatment may only take a few minutes to complete, and starts working fairly quickly. You may begin to see results in as little as 3-5 days after your injections, although it can take longer for some patients. The duration of the effect may last three months or longer, so you will need to ask your dermatologist about follow-up injections to maintain your natural look. Some patients find that after a few regular Botox treatments, they can stretch sessions a bit longer as the muscle can remain relaxed for longer in some cases.

When Botox is administered correctly, the improvements are very natural. You will still be able to make natural facial expressions, but the lines and wrinkles that typically accompany those expressions will be significantly reduced.
