About Botox
BOTOX is typically used to decrease the effects of aging and to prevent lines, wrinkles, and lax skin from occurring on the forehead and upper face, The Remedy IV Health + Wellness of Fort Lauderdale, FL is pleased to offer BOTOX to our patients.
This facial rejuvenation treatment offers outstanding results and is used by both women and men. BOTOX can produce dramatic improvement to dynamic facial wrinkles, which are the result of expressions and movement with the contracting muscles on the forehead.
These facial lines go away when the face is relaxed, but dynamic creases can still remain. This muscle relaxer is a purified strain of type A botulinum toxin that temporarily freezes the movements of the underlying tissue and muscle to diminish the appearance of these static lines and wrinkles. BOTOX is skillfully injected to relax and soften the skin. This specific injection is most commonly administered by our highly trained staff between the brows where the number “11” appears, around the eyes (Crow’s feet), and throughout the forehead.
Ideal Candidates for Botox
BOTOX injections are typically used for patients who hope to reduce and soften the visible look of dynamic wrinkles, lines, and moderate folds on their upper face through a nonsurgical manner. BOTOX is often considered as a preventative anti-aging treatment. BOTOX is an effective noninvasive solution if you have obvious forehead wrinkles or frown lines between the brows. It is also thought to be a solution for Crow’s feet around the eyes.
If you experience more severe and deeper lines, a combination of BOTOX and a filler may be a better option at The Remedy IV Health + Wellness. For those men and women over the age of 50 with moderate to severe skin laxity, you may be a candidate for A PDO Thread Lift, which is a method that can last for a longer period of time and also offered to our patients.
Procedure Technique
BOTOX is an injectable treatment that is completed at our office in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. If it is your first time vising us to get BOTOX, we normally complete the quick procedure within the same day as your initial consultation. You will be asked to make a few expressions so that The Remedy IV Health + Wellness professional can determine where injections are best placed. Your face will then be prepared and BOTOX will be injected under the skin using a fine needle followed with a cool compress to help reduce minor swelling, bruising, and/or discomfort, but it normally is not needed. BOTOX treatments usually take less than 20 minutes, after which you may get back to your usual day with no required recovery period.
What to Expect
After a BOTOX procedure, you would be able to return to your usual schedule, if you choose to. However, any strenuous activities like exercise should be avoided for a minimum of 24hrs. It would be best for you to sleep with your head propped up for at least one night and avoid touching your face, which can accidentally spread the BOTOX to other areas of which it was not intended. The sections of your face that were injected may become red, bruised, or swollen for a few days, but you should not have any long-lasting or serious side effects. In the majority of cases, it typically takes around one week before the final results of BOTOX become visible. Generally these results may last up to 3-4 months. You may speak to one of our professionals about when to make a follow-up appointment to refresh your results.
