Smoother Skin, Considered Results
Repeated movements such as smiling, squinting, and frowning can create visible lines over time. BOTOX Cosmetic temporarily reduces activity in selected muscles, helping soften the lines associated with those movements. It is FDA-approved to improve the appearance of moderate to severe forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet in adults.
Treatment can offer:
- Softer forehead lines, creating a smoother-looking upper face.
- Less pronounced frown lines, easing the appearance of tension between the brows.
- Reduced crow’s feet, softening expression lines around the outer corners of the eyes.
- A refreshed appearance, with dosing selected around your preferred degree of movement.
Personalized Facial Refinement
We also evaluate selected concerns beyond the forehead and eye area, including:
- Bunny lines along the sides of the nose
- Downturned mouth corners
- Excessive upper-gum exposure when smiling
- Chin dimpling or a pitted appearance
- Selected expression lines around the mouth
These applications are considered individually and may involve off-label use. We explain whether treatment is appropriate for your anatomy and how it could affect movement in the surrounding area.
The OWM Approach
Your appointment begins with a review of your goals, medical history, and facial movement. We assess how your features work together before selecting injection locations and doses, allowing us to balance line reduction with natural expression.
We document your treatment on an anatomical diagram, recording the placement and amount used at each site. This provides a reference for future appointments and helps us refine your plan according to your response.
The Experience & Results
Injections take only a few minutes once your assessment is complete, and most patients can return to everyday activities afterward with specific aftercare instructions. Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur; we review potential risks before treatment.
For forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet, improvement may begin within one to two days, with full results developing over approximately 30 days and effects lasting up to four months. Your response and preferred appearance guide the timing of future appointments.
