Your Botox appointment starts with a look at how your face moves and where your lines actually form, since everyone expresses differently. Your specialist maps out the right amount and placement for your specific muscles, rather than applying a standard dose.

The injections themselves are quick, with a series of small, precise injections in the treatment area. Results build gradually over the days that follow as the muscle relaxes, and most people return to their normal routine right away — there’s nothing to plan around afterward beyond avoiding rubbing the area for a few hours.
