BOTOX® in Southlake, TX

If your skin is plagued by the effects of years of facial expressions, such as frowning and squinting, our staff at Refine MedSpa in Southlake, TX is confident that BOTOX can be a solution. BOTOX is an injection that softens the appearance of lines across the forehead, as well as Crows feet around the eyes. As one of the most popular nonsurgical solutions to unwanted lines, BOTOX is an injectable wrinkle relaxer that aims directly at the muscles beneath your skin to help control facial expressions while at the same time appearing normal. BOTOX uses a form of purified botulinum toxin Type A to freeze the underlying muscles, for a temporary period of time, leaving you with smoother, more youthful skin. The initial injection lasts around 3 – 4 months, and can be extended with further injections.

Our staff at Refine MedSpa will be able to help you decide during your first visit and consultation whether BOTOX is a good choice to treat your particular skin concerns. Ideal candidates are those that have lines and wrinkles across the forehead and around the eyes, but aren’t quite ready for a surgical procedure. If repetitive frowning or stress has created unwanted and frustrating lines and creases in your forehead, between your eyebrows (known as the number 11’s) and around your eyes, or if you have any sort of asymmetry around the eyebrows, you may be a great fit for BOTOX injections. If you have lines and crevices that are too deep for BOTOX to effectively correct, an injectable filler may be a more suitable option. This can also be discussed during the consultation.

If our staff at Refine MedSpa believes that you are a candidate for BOTOX, we can begin the injection treatment during your first visit. After cleaning the site and applying a numbing cream, our skilled injector will inject the BOTOX with a needle into the forehead or around the eyes. Most patients report feeling little discomfort or pain, and some report none at all. After the injection, patients can leave the office almost instantly, but should not lie down, touch the site, or exercise for at least 24 hours. The first 1 – 2 days may reveal some swelling, redness, or bruising, but this typically goes away within the first few hours.

Smoother skin and a more youthful appearance will be seen within about 5 – 7 days after treatment. In some patients, the results may appear quicker. These results can last between 3 – 4 months before patients return for a follow-up injection. In fact, our patients love their results so much they come back to us throughout the year! We encourage you to schedule your next treatment during our appointment to keep our lines and wrinkles at bay year-round. After the first treatment, we may encourage a follow-up visit within the first few weeks in order to check the results and adjust the injection quantity if necessary.
