BOTOX® Cosmetic
in San Diego, CA
Dynamic wrinkles are created from continued muscle contractions in the face. These wrinkles often develop in the upper region of the face, including on the forehead and around the eyes. And while dynamic wrinkles are not necessarily age-related, they develop over time.
Wrinkles, in general, can cause many men and women to feel self-conscious about the appearance of their faces, and they may worry they look older and more worn down than they actually are. These facial blemishes can even cause some men and women to refrain from social interaction or hide their faces under scarves, hats, sunglasses, and other clothing. Instead of hiding the issue, why not address it?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a revolutionary injectable treatment that helps correct the appearance of unsightly wrinkles and fine lines in the face to help you look and feel younger than ever.
The Lounge Spa at Coastal Plastic Surgeons is pleased to offer BOTOX® Cosmetic injectable treatments for patients in and around San Diego, California.
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic?
BOTOX® Cosmetic has been a trusted name in cosmetic treatments for years. Botulinum toxin A is the active ingredient in the injection, which is a neuromodulator.
When the botulinum toxin is injected into the muscle, it temporarily blocks the chemical signals in the nerves that force the muscle to tense. Essentially, BOTOX® Cosmetic relaxes the muscle so that it cannot contract and cause wrinkles to appear on the skin.
BOTOX® Cosmetic Can Help Correct:
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Gummy smile lines
Why Choose The Lounge Spa?
While many offices and spas offer BOTOX® Cosmetic, correct and effective treatment requires knowledge of the facial structure, which only skilled professionals provide. Incorrect injections can distort the face and take away from the effective results that BOTOX® Cosmetic can give, which is why you need to choose the right provider for your BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments.
The experts at The Lounge Spa have a deep understanding of the facial tissues and muscles. They know how to administer BOTOX® Cosmetic so their patients can achieve the most natural results possible.
The highly trained and skilled team at The Lounge Spa is available to answer any of your questions and ensure you achieve your ideal results.
Am I a Candidate for BOTOX® Cosmetic?
As with any cosmetic treatment, one of the most important aspects of the procedure is your consultation. At your BOTOX® Cosmetic consultation at The Lounge Spa, one of our skilled providers will evaluate your condition to determine if BOTOX® Cosmetic is the right choice for you.
Ideal candidates for BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments are non-smoking men and women who are in good general health, struggle with the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the upper portion of their face, and have realistic expectations about their results.
BOTOX® Cosmetic will not address facial volume loss or static lines and wrinkles. The Lounge Spa offers injectable dermal filler treatment for patients desiring additional fullness.
How Are BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections Performed?
Most patients report that this minimally invasive treatment is not painful, though your provider can apply a topical ointment before the injections to ensure comfort. During your treatment session, your provider will inject the BOTOX® Cosmetic solution directly into the troublesome muscles.
In total, your BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment session should take less than 15 minutes to complete, which means that you can have your treatment during your lunch break.
What Can I Expect After My BOTOX® Cosmetic Treatment?
Besides giving you stunning results, one of the best aspects of BOTOX® Cosmetic is that there is no downtime. While you may experience slight bruising and swelling around the injection site, these reactions usually subside within a few days, and over-the-counter medication can help alleviate any discomfort.
You can return to work and your normal daily activities immediately following your treatment.
What Results Can I Expect From My BOTOX® Cosmetic Treatment?
It generally takes three to seven days for your final BOTOX® Cosmetic results to become apparent.
Once your results settle, you will see a noticeable improvement in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on your face. You’ll have smoother, more youthful skin that will help increase your confidence and comfort. No longer will you feel embarrassed about the appearance of your face. Instead, you’ll be ready to show off your beautiful and rejuvenated results to the world.
Results from your BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment generally last three to four months before requiring maintenance treatment.
You can often prolong your results by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including having a good skin care routine and staying out of direct sunlight.
