What is Botox®?

Botox® (botulinum toxin) is a substance that has taken the aesthetics world by storm. Qualified professionals inject Botox® into specific facial muscles to temporarily paralyze them, which reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. 

Most people seek out Botox® for its exceptional cosmetic results. However, Botox® can also treat a variety of medical conditions, like chronic migraines. Botox® is a safe and effective way to rejuvenate your appearance and improve your quality of life.

Additionally, many people opt for fillers to enhance their appearance. Fillers come in various types to address different facial areas and yield natural-looking results. If you’re looking to restore volume to the face, fillers can be an excellent option.

How do Botox® and fillers improve my appearance?

Botox® temporarily relaxes muscles that cause wrinkles, while fillers often use hyaluronic acid to plump and smooth out areas of the face that have lost volume over time. Together, they can address a range of concerns, from forehead lines and crow's feet to hollow cheeks and thinning lips. 

Results are subtle and natural, allowing you to look like the best version of yourself without looking overdone. Whether you're looking to turn back the clock or simply enhance your natural features, Botox® and fillers are a great way to achieve your desired look.

Where can I use Botox® and fillers?

Reno Premier Medicine uses Botox® and fillers to target many facial areas, each with its unique benefits. Botox® is commonly used to treat forehead lines, frown lines, and crow's feet. 

Fillers, on the other hand, can add volume and contour to the cheeks, temples, and jawline, as well as plump up thinning lips and smooth out nasolabial folds. In some cases, fillers can also improve the appearance of under-eye circles.

What can I expect during Botox injections?

Your Reno Premier Medicine provider administers Botox® with injections into the facial muscles. Before the injection, they can numb the area with a topical anesthetic to reduce discomfort. The procedure is relatively quick and requires minimal downtime.

Patients can typically resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, if you exercise regularly, your provider may recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for the first day.
