BOTOX® Cosmetic in Palos Heights, IL
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic?BOTOX® Cosmetic is a trusted treatment for softening fine lines and crow’s feet. The treatment uses a small amount of purified botulinum toxin protein to relax the facial muscles responsible for these lines. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Manasovska to find out if BOTOX® is right for you.
How Does BOTOX® Work?
As skin loses volume with age, facial muscles sit closer to the surface and contract more visibly, deepening wrinkles. BOTOX® reduces activity in the specific muscles that cause fine lines and crow’s feet. As muscle activity decreases, so does the appearance of wrinkles.
What to Expect During Treatment
BOTOX® injections take just a few minutes and require no anesthesia. Most patients feel only a small sting during the injection. You can resume normal activities right away. Some patients notice slight, short-lived bruising near the injection site. Dr. Manasovska will review your medical history and any risks with you at your consultation.
When Will I See Results?
Results vary by patient, but most people notice improvement within 24 to 48 hours of treatment. The effects can last up to four months, and many patients maintain their results with treatment two to three times a year.
How Many BOTOX® Injections Will I Need?
At your consultation, you’ll discuss your goals with Dr. Manasovska. Your goals, combined with an evaluation of your facial muscles, will determine how many injections you need to reach a smoother, more youthful appearance.
