Am I a Good Candidate for BOTOX?

BOTOX® Sacramento is the most popular and widely used cosmetic treatment in the United States. People everywhere have been able to improve the condition of their skin, eliminating fine lines and wrinkles and treating other telltale signs of aging. It was approved by the FDA more than 20 years ago, and since that time, it has helped individuals to not only look younger, but also feel great about the way they look.

Who Are the Best BOTOX® Candidates?

For the most part, individuals of any age can receive BOTOX® treatments. However, most cosmetic professionals say that individuals who are between the ages of 18 and 65 are best suited for this treatment. BOTOX® most effectively treats dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles usually occur as a person gets a little bit older, perhaps when they are in their late thirties or early forties. So most of the individuals who use BOTOX® treatment are about this age.

When you come in for a consultation, our trained medical professionals will look closely at the condition of your skin and the type of wrinkles you have. BOTOX® can help to smooth skin that is experiencing dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles form when the muscles under the skin contract. Every single day we all make expressions with our face, smiling, grimacing, laughing and more. As these muscles contract and then relax, it affects the way the skin on top of them looks. When BOTOX® is injected into these muscles, the muscles begin to relax and the skin on top of them gets smoothed out. If you are dealing with other kinds of wrinkles, like static wrinkles that are a result of aging, our trained professionals will likely recommend other types of cosmetic treatments in order to help you improve the condition of your skin.

What Can You Expect after Your BOTOX® Treatment?

It is not likely that you will see results in the first couple of days after your treatment. It usually takes a couple of days or even a week or two before you are able to see results. Once the product has taken its full effect, you will see the wrinkles disappear. Your skin will be smooth and you will look much younger. Although the effects are not immediate, the wait is definitely worth it.
