ABOUT BOTOX

(eliminates fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing the muscle)

BOTOX temporarily smooths fine lines and creases created by the constant motion of your facial muscles, activated when you are frowning, squinting, and smiling. Wrinkles develop as a result of these repeated muscle actions. With BOTOX treatments, the muscle activity is relaxed, leaving you looking well-rested, refreshed, and younger.

WHAT IS BOTOX MADE OF?

BOTOX is the most popular cosmetic injectable. The active ingredient is derived from a bacteria called clostridium botulinum. When injected in tiny quantities, BOTOX smooths facial wrinkles and lines. It is FDA-approved and is relied upon by hundreds of thousands of people who love the smoothing effect.

AM I A CANDIDATE FOR BOTOX INJECTIONS?

BOTOX INJECTIONS COULD BE FOR YOU IF:

  • You’re an adult with fine lines developing around your eyes, mouth, and forehead
  • You feel the fine lines and wrinkles are giving you an older, tired appearance
  • You are developing frown lines or a deep crease between your eyebrows

Most adults are good candidates for our BOTOX with a few exceptions. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or allergic to any of the ingredients, you are not a candidate. 

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER BOTOX

There is no recovery time for BOTOX. Once your injections are complete, you are free to go about your day. At Cima Med Spa our professional injectors are trusted to create a very natural look with BOTOX. No one will know you had BOTOX injections – but you should expect compliments!

WHAT ARE THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BOTOX?

You may see slight swelling or redness around the injection sites, which fades quickly (about 15 minutes). You have only a couple of restrictions: Do not massage the area treated, no strenuous exercise for 24 hours, no hot sun, saunas or excessive heat for 72 hours, and avoid alcohol and salty foods to limit swelling. BOTOX carries some risk of bruising around the injection site.
The results appear in about 3-10 days, so if you have an upcoming event and want to look your best, plan your treatment at least two weeks in advance.

HOW LONG DOES BOTOX LAST?

The results of BOTOX are in the range of 3-4months, with some variation person to person. When you see the fine lines and wrinkles reappearing, it is your skin signaling you that it is time for your next treatment.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BOTOX, DYSPORT, AND XEOMIN?

BOTOX, Dysport, and Xeomin all share similarities, but also have differences that mean one or more of these products can be better for certain areas. Knowing the differences between the three can give you a better understanding of how the professional injectors at Cima Med Spa can help you achieve the look you envision.

XEOMIN

Xeomin is like BOTOX and Dysport in that it is an injectable form of Botulinum Toxin A, and that it helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, Xeomin doesn’t have preservative protein, which allows it to bind to the muscles immediately, producing a faster result. Xeomin avoids giving the face a “frozen” appearance, and looks and feels more natural. Additionally, Xeomin does not contain any additives and is only the Botulinum Toxin A, reducing the rare situation in which the body develops antibodies to the product.

DYSPORT

Dysport and BOTOX are very similar. They are both forms of Botulinum Toxin Type A, FDA approved to reduce muscle movement. The main difference between the two is that Dysport has smaller protein molecules and is a more diluted formulation. Due to these differences, Dysport interacts differently in the body than BOTOX. Dysport, as a more diluted formula, spreads over a larger area. Often used to treat lines and creases in the forehead, the product is effective for facial areas with thinner muscles. One advantage is that fewer injections are needed. While Dysport is the perfect injectable for certain features, it may be less beneficial for smaller areas, such as the crease between the eyebrows or on those unattractive lines radiating from the mouth.
