Botox is an FDA-approved injectable product used for minimally invasive cosmetic procedures. Botox injections can treat mild wrinkles. Botox has been used for non-surgical skin rejuvenation for many years in the cosmetic industry. At Modern Aesthetics, we provide safe and effective injections of Botox in Roseville.

What Is Botox?

Signs of aging such as fine lines start to appear over time. People often try topical products and supplements to rejuvenate their skin and combat the signs of aging. Botox Cosmetic is a clinically proven product that can effectively treat early signs of aging.

Botox is made of botulinum toxin, a toxin produced by botulism-causing microbes. It is manufactured using botulinum toxin type A. Botox is the most popular injectable procedure in the cosmetic industry.

How Does Botox Work?

Wrinkles often form by overusing facial muscles. Botox is a neuromodulator, meaning that it attacks the root cause of wrinkles, blocking the acetylcholine receptors of the muscles. The muscles are then weakened, preventing them from being overused. This reduces fine wrinkles on the skin.

Is Botox Right for Me?

Botox treatment is appropriate for patients who have crow’s feet, horizontal forehead lines, vertical brow lines, chin wrinkles, bunny lines, and harsh vertical neck bands.

Patients above 18 years old who are not pregnant or breastfeeding are excellent candidates for Botox treatment. Candidates must be healthy and must have no active skin conditions. Candidates must have realistic expectations.

Your Consultation

During your consultation, we will assess if your goals can be achieved through Botox treatment. We will evaluate your medical history, including any medications and supplements you are taking. Let us know if you have previously tried Botox treatment or other skin rejuvenation treatments.

Your Botox Treatment Session

The Botox treatment session usually takes within 20 minutes, depending on the number of target areas. Either local or topical anesthesia will be administered to numb the treatment areas. The amount of Botox injected into each area will vary depending on the treatment plan and the goals of the patient.

Aftercare

The patient can go home after the Botox treatment. No recovery period is necessary, and the patient can get back to work and perform normal physical activities. Prolonged exposure to the sun should be avoided for safety and effectiveness. Patients will be advised not to massage the treated area during the first day after the treatment to prevent spreading the Botox.

Patients will be provided with customized skincare instructions. Follow-up treatment sessions may be scheduled depending on the result of the first treatment and the treatment plan designed for the patient.

How Much Does a Botox Treatment Cost?

The cost of Botox treatment sessions will depend on the amount of Botox used during the treatment. The total price may increase if the treatment plan involves multiple sessions.
