Richmond, VA Botox Injections
Treatment with Botox injections can help improve the appearance of forehead lines, brow lines, and lines around the eyes (also called crow’s feet). Results may not take effect until five to seven days after the procedure and can last as long as three to four months. Dr. Aboutanos personally injects Botox according to your facial anatomy and strives to give you the look you are ready for.
How long will the procedure take?
Injection with Botox can take about 15-20 minutes and can be done in the office.
What will recovery be like?
You should be able to return to your daily activities after the procedure. You should avoid physical exercise and working out for at least 24 hours after Botox injections.
What else should I know about Botox?
Patients with neuromuscular disorders and pregnant patients are not candidates for Botox treatments. Dr. Aboutanos will make sure that Botox is right for you.
Are there any Botox alternatives available?
Yes! Dr. Aboutanos also offers the newest botulinum Type A neuromodulator, Jeuveau™ for her Richmond patients. Jeuveau™ works in a very similar manner for treating frown lines. Read our Jeuveau™ blog post or watch the video to learn more.
