A Botox Cosmetic® treatment treats:

1. Horizontal forehead lines
2. Vertical lines between the brows (glabellar lines)
3. Crow's feet at the corners of the eyes

A Botox Cosmetic® treatment works well on its own, but it can also be combined with dermal fillers for a more complete improvement without surgery. During your consultation at Ancaster Dermatology, we will work together to plan the best treatment for you and your skin. A Botox Cosmetic® treatment is trusted for medical indications, too. At Ancaster Dermatology Centre, we use it to treat excessive underarm sweating, a condition called hyperhidrosis.

The Botox Cosmetic® Treatment Experience

A Botox Cosmetic® treatment is an injectable treatment administered right here in our office. During the procedure, your practitioner first cleanses your skin and may also mark it to ensure accuracy. She then makes a series of injections in your specified treatment areas. We use a fine needle, and each injection feels like no more than a tiny pinch. The entire treatment is brief, and you may comfortably return to your normal activities immediately after your visit. A Botox Cosmetic® treatment takes some time to take effect, so expect your results to begin developing after about a week. Your results will likely last for several months. We recommend touching up your results every 4 months or so to maintain a refreshed look for as long as you would like.
