Repeatedly using the same facial muscles over years leads to expression lines. At a Botox consultation in our Katy clinic, your provider evaluates your goals by assessing the areas that concern you.

If Botox is an appropriate option, your provider will outline the areas to be treated, the expected outcome, the potential risks and the aftercare before you confirm treatment.

Overview

What Botox may help address

Botox is a prescription injectable used to reduce the activity of targeted muscles for cosmetic indications.

How the plan is decided

Injection site, quantity and the distribution of units all depend on your anatomy, the movement of the muscle in question, your medical history and the product's FDA-approved use.

Following an evaluation, concerns such as forehead lines, frown lines and other dynamic wrinkles can be addressed with confidence about what the treatment will and will not do.

Botox does not permanently correct the signs of ageing and should not be treated as a lasting solution to them.

Suitability

Botox considerations

If facial expression lines bother you, Botox may suit you as a temporary measure. Expected outcomes and the alternatives are covered at consultation.

Botox or dermal fillers?

Botox and dermal fillers serve different purposes. Botox is generally used for movement lines; dermal fillers address volume and contour concerns.

Depending on the concern, the right answer may be one, the other, or neither. Your provider should describe the proposed treatment, its risks, its alternatives and its limitations.

Discuss your goals with your provider in advance. Every case responds differently depending on anatomy, dose and the area treated.

Onset and duration vary with the treatment area, the product used and individual differences. Refer to the product label for specifics and ask your provider for their assessment.

Sensation varies from patient to patient. Ask what to expect and what comfort measures your provider offers.

It can, but it depends on the assessment. Treatments should not be combined simply because they are marketed together.

Tell your provider the brand and type of product you had, the date and the area treated. Botulinum toxin units are product specific and cannot be converted between brands.

Meet with the provider. Share your goals and concerns, bring them up to date on your medical history, medications and previous treatments. You should leave with a treatment plan, a cost estimate and the information you need to decide.
