Botox is derived from the botulinum toxin, which comes in several types. The most commonly used types in medical and cosmetic treatments are:
- Botulinum Toxin Type A: This is the primary type used in Botox Cosmetic and is known for its safety and effectiveness.
- Botulinum Toxin Type B: Used in cases where patients develop resistance to Type A, although less common.
Beyond cosmetic enhancements, Botox offers various medical benefits, including:
- Migraine Relief: Botox injections can help reduce the frequency and severity of chronic migraines.
- Hyperhidrosis Treatment: Effectively manages excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) by blocking the nerves responsible for activating sweat glands.
- Muscle Spasms and Stiffness: Botox can alleviate muscle stiffness, spasms, and disorders such as cervical dystonia and spasticity.
- Bladder Dysfunction: Helps treat overactive bladder symptoms and urinary incontinence caused by neurological conditions.
- TMJ Disorder and Jaw Tension: Reduces jaw tension, pain, and clenching associated with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
Our licensed practitioners at Wellness Skin Aesthetics will assess your facial structure and areas of concern. Using a fine needle, small amounts of Botox are injected into specific muscles.
The entire procedure typically takes about 15-30 minutes, allowing you to return to your daily activities almost immediately.

AFTER
- Immediately After: Do not rub, massage, or apply pressure to the treated areas for at least 24 hours to prevent the spread of Botox to unintended areas.

- Facial Expressions: Actively move your facial muscles by smiling, frowning, and raising your eyebrows to help the Botox settle into the muscles.
- Posture: Keep your head elevated and avoid lying down, bending over, or leaning forward for at least 4-6 hours post-treatment.
- Heat Exposure: Avoid saunas, hot tubs, tanning beds, and excessive heat exposure for 24 hours as it can increase the risk of bruising.
- Skin Care: Continue with your regular skincare routine but avoid facials, facial massages, or any skin treatments for at least 24-48 hours.
- Makeup: You can apply makeup gently after a few hours, but avoid excessive pressure on the treated areas.
