Botox Injections Specialist in Santa Cruz, Aptos CA

One of the primary functions of botox injections is to reduce the look of wrinkles in the face and neck, but are also known to be used for treating conditions such as hyperhidrosis (profuse sweating), an overactive bladder, cervical dystonia (spasms in the neck), and lazy eyes. They are also often used to help prevent chronic migraines. 

Clients will often notice results of firmer and younger-looking skin within a few days after receiving the treatment. Often clients fear that they will look like a different person, but Botox injections are subtle, the only noticeable difference is that you will look like a younger, fresher version of yourself! Botox injection appointments can be as quick as 10 minutes long, so they are very quick and easy treatments. Here at Pacific Coast Aesthetics Med Spa, we will ensure you are as comfortable with the process as possible.

The three main areas to have Botox injected for wrinkle reduction are the two vertical frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead lines, in the crow’s feet wrinkles around the eyes. At Pacific Coast Aesthetics Med Spa, we also provide Botox injections for the neck.

Preventative Botox is the most effective approach to reducing the production of fully developed, deep wrinkles.  Even though Botox is approved for any client who wishes to receive the injections at the minimum age of 18 years old, most experts agree that a good age to start Botox injections for prevention is when the client is around their mid to late 20s and early 30s.  If the client is receiving Botox for wrinkle treatments, it is best to start when the forehead lines, crow’s feet, or frown lines are first noticeable while your facial expression is in a neutral position.

A Botox injection should last around 3-4 months typically; however, the duration varies from case to case.  Depending on the client, Botox could last for only 2 months, but for others, it could last up to 4 to 6 months.  Often clients will find that their Botox injections don’t last as long as the initial injection but after the second treatment, it will start to stay a bit longer.

All Botox treatments will wear off naturally, gradually showing the pre-existing fine lines and wrinkles, though many clients have noticed that their wrinkles and fine lines return less pronounced than they were before the treatment.  It is recommended that treatments are repeated every few months to maintain long-lasting results.
