Botox

Neurotoxins are injectable compounds designed to relax muscles, effectively smoothing out lines and wrinkles. Among the various brands available, BOTOX® Cosmetic is one of the most recognized.



BOTOX® Cosmetic specifically targets areas of the face and neck to alleviate muscle tension and diminish the appearance of lines and wrinkles. At Elle Medical & Aesthetics, we offer it for a range of treatments. In addition to BOTOX®, we also utilize other neurotoxin options like Xeomin® and Dysport®. Typically, the effects of these cosmetic treatments last for three to four months.

Who Should Consider BOTOX® Cosmetic?


BOTOX® Cosmetic is ideal for individuals in good health, aged 20 to 70, who wish to minimize lines on the face and neck. Our experienced team will collaborate with you to determine which treatments are most suitable for your needs. We provide comprehensive information on all available options, empowering you to make an informed decision.


What to Expect During Treatment


First, we will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored specifically for you. Since the effects of neurotoxins are temporary, your plan will likely include 3 to 4 sessions per year to achieve and maintain optimal results.


BOTOX® Cosmetic is delivered through a series of targeted injections that typically take about 15 minutes to complete. Following the procedure, there will be a brief waiting period to monitor for any rare adverse reactions. After this, you can return to your regular activities. You may experience minor swelling or redness, but these usually subside quickly.

What Are the Results of BOTOX® Cosmetic Treatments?

Most individuals start to notice their lines smoothing within 24 to 48 hours after treatment. Improvements continue for several days, leading to the best possible results. The effects typically last for three to four months before requiring a follow-up treatment. The long-term treatment schedule you establish with our staff will help determine when to plan your next session.

Botox® FAQ

Answers to Common Questions About Botox at Elle Medical & Aesthetics

  • How do I know if I’m a good candidate for Botox?

    If you are in good health and want to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles such as frown lines, crow’s feet, or forehead creases, Botox may be a great option. Most clients at Elle Medical & Aesthetics are in their 20s to 60s and are looking for subtle, refreshed results without downtime.

  • What’s the difference between Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport?

    All three are FDA-approved neuromodulators that temporarily relax facial muscles. Botox is the most well-known. Xeomin is a purified form without accessory proteins. Dysport tends to spread more, which can make it ideal for larger areas. During your consultation, we will help you decide which product is best for your goals and anatomy.

  • Does Botox hurt?

    Most clients describe Botox injections as a mild pinch or brief pressure. Treatments are quick, typically taking 10 to 15 minutes. We use a fine needle and can apply a numbing agent if needed, though most patients find it very tolerable.

  • How soon will I see results from Botox?

    Initial results may appear within 24 to 48 hours. Full results typically develop over 7 to 10 days. The effects usually last about 3 to 4 months, depending on your body’s response and the area treated.

  • What should I avoid after getting Botox?

    For the first four hours after treatment, avoid lying flat, rubbing the treated area, applying pressure, or exercising. We also recommend avoiding saunas, alcohol, and facials for 24 hours. You will receive clear aftercare instructions before you leave the office.

  • Can I combine Botox with other aesthetic treatments?

    Yes. Botox is often paired with dermal fillers, HydraFacials, or microneedling to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. It is also safe to combine with medical-grade skincare for longer-lasting results.

  • How often should I schedule Botox treatments?

    Most clients schedule appointments every 3 to 4 months to maintain their results. Staying consistent can help prevent deeper lines from forming and may reduce the amount of product needed over time.

  • Will I look frozen or overdone?

    No. At Elle Medical & Aesthetics, we take a conservative, natural approach to Botox. Our goal is to soften lines while preserving your natural expressions. You will still look like yourself, just more rested and refreshed.

  • What is a Lip Flip or Gummy Smile treatment with Botox?

    These are targeted Botox injections used to relax specific muscles around the mouth. A Lip Flip slightly rolls out the upper lip for a fuller appearance. A Gummy Smile treatment reduces how much gum shows when you smile. Both are subtle enhancements that can be done without filler.

  • What happens if I stop getting Botox?

    If you stop Botox, your results will gradually wear off and your facial expressions will return to baseline. Your skin will not look worse than before treatment, but lines may slowly return with normal movement over time.
