IS BOTOX TREATMENT RIGHT FOR YOU?
Find out what Botox Injections can do for you.
Botox is the gold standard for eliminating wrinkles. It has been popular for greater than twenty years and is known for eliminating forehead lines, crow’s feet or frown lines. People love it because it is a quick procedure, non-invasive and takes years off your face. It can make you look refreshed quickly. At Flawless MediSpa, we’ve developed techniques so that Botox will shape and rejuvenate your face, without your face looking done.
​
Botox is the #1 cosmetic treatment worldwide -- and for good reason. It delivers beautiful results and is quick and minimally invasive. In just 15 minutes, we can take years off your face. The best part about Botox? You’ll still look like yourself, only refreshed and reset. Botox treatment works by relaxing the muscles that tend to wrinkle and furrow, as you laugh, smile, frown or make certain facial expressions. Over time, those expressions can cause deep creases in your skin over time. Eventually, they turn into full-blown wrinkles. Tiny injections of Botox can temporarily smooth away those unwanted lines and wrinkles. You’ll still be able to make facial expressions, but Botox helps minimize extreme movements that age your skin. Afterward, your face will look younger, amazing, and more rested.
​
Aging is unavoidable in life, looking your age is not! No matter how well you take care of your body, you’ll see the natural effects of age, worry, and stress on your skin. There’s nothing wrong with that -- after all, our experiences shape us into the people we are today. Still, most people find that a little extra self- care goes a long way.

Our most popular treatments include:
​
CROWS FEET - Botox for crow’s feet smooths fine lines around the outer corner of the eyes for a more alert, youthful look.

FOREHEAD LINES - The Botox forehead lift smooths out forehead lines and helps prevent new creases from forming.
​
EYEBROW LIFT - For a rested, refreshed, and younger appearance, the Botox brow lift raises the eyebrows and opens up the eye area.
​
EYELID LIFT - Botox injected to lift eyebrows can also lift and tighten sagging skin around the eyes, which tend to become hooded with age.
FROWN LINES - Botox for frown lines smooths the muscles between the eyes that tend to create “11 lines” when you’re frowning or concentrating.
GUMMY SMILE - Botox above the lips can refine a gummy smile by relaxing the muscle, which helps prevent the upper lip from lifting too far above the gums.
FACE SLIMMING - Botox injected into the masseter muscle can soften a square jaw, creating a more feminine silhouette in the lower face.

Is Botox the same as Botulism?Contrary to popular belief, the bacteria that causes botulism, clostridium botulinum, is not part of treatment, nor are six of the seven neurotoxins it secretes. The only substance used in Botox injection, botulinum toxin A, is carefully extracted, purified and standardized into FDA approved doses. Plus, the dosage is so small, it can’t get beyond the muscle tissue it is injected into, meaning there is little if any chance for Botox to reach the bloodstream. 07

What are the side effects of Botox?When injected properly, Botox injections don’t require a lot of downtime. Patients can typically resume all their normal activities immediately after a treatment. Common side effects include mild redness, bruising and swelling can occur immediately and within a couple of days. More serious complications can occur but are rare. Talk to your provider about possible complications and read all the safety considerations on the handout in the office.

What are the Botox Myths?Myth #1- "Botox is Toxic and Unsafe." Botox is completely safe for cosmetic use. It has been FDA approved as an anti-aging treatment. Botox is derived from Botulism Toxin and is an effective treatment for wrinkles and frown lines. Botox toxin has been used to treat neurological disorders for over 30 years. Additionally, the National Institutes of Health issued a consensus statement over a decade ago about the safe use of botulinum toxin for therapeutic use. Myth #2 -"Wrinkles will worsen if you stop getting Botox." Botox isn’t a permanent solution to wrinkles, so as the effects of Botox generally fade away, you will start to regain facial movements in your muscles before your next treatment. There is no permanent damage if you stop. In fact, the reduced movement of the treated muscles will prevent future wrinkles from forming. But why would you stop Botox? Myth #3 - "Botox will make me look Frozen." Botox should never make you look frozen or emotionless. Good Botox should make you look softer and more wrinkle free. Myth #4 "A Facial and/or a Serum or Cream Can Do the Same Thing." No Skin Cream or serum on the market today can actually relax the muscles in your skin. Only Botox can do that! Creams and serums can only penetrate so far. Serums can enhance your results, but Botox goes into the muscle, eliminating those wrinkles. Ask Dr Maragh for a Free Consult for Botox or Fillers
