Botox in Alpharetta

Botox injections temporarily reduce activity in targeted facial muscles that contribute to expression lines. As those muscles relax, concerns such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet can appear smoother while natural facial movement can still be preserved with an appropriately planned treatment. BOTOX Cosmetic is FDA approved for forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, and vertical platysma bands in adults.

Botox Cosmetic is FDA approved to temporarily improve moderate-to-severe forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet, and vertical platysma bands connecting the neck and jaw. Botox may also be used cosmetically for other concerns, such as bunny lines, chin dimpling, lip flip, or facial contouring, when your provider determines treatment is appropriate.

Botox does not have to make you look frozen. The amount used and where it is placed influence how much muscle movement is reduced. At GENEVA Med, Botox injections are planned around your facial anatomy, muscle activity, and goals with the aim of softening lines while maintaining natural-looking expression.

There is no single Botox dose that applies to every cosmetic treatment. The number of units depends on the areas being treated and the approved or individualized treatment plan. For reference, the FDA-approved BOTOX Cosmetic dosing for treating forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet together totals 64 units, but your provider will determine the appropriate dose for your treatment areas and goals.

For FDA-approved treatment of forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet, Botox Cosmetic results last 3 to 4 months. How long your results last can vary based on the treatment area and individual response.

You may begin noticing changes within the first few days after Botox injections. Results continue to develop as the treatment takes effect, and BOTOX Cosmetic’s current patient information evaluates full results for its major facial treatment areas at 30 days.

Botox injections require minimal downtime, and most patients can return to their normal daily routine after treatment. Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising can occur around the injection sites. Follow your GENEVA provider’s specific aftercare instructions.

Follow the aftercare instructions provided by your GENEVA injector after Botox treatment. Avoid rubbing or manipulating the treated areas unless instructed otherwise, and ask your provider when to resume exercise, skincare treatments, or other activities if you have questions about your specific treatment.

Botox and dermal fillers address different causes of facial aging. Botox temporarily reduces targeted muscle activity to soften expression lines, while dermal fillers add or restore volume in areas such as the cheeks, lips, or facial folds. Some patients may benefit from one treatment or a combination depending on their concerns and goals.

Botox injections can cause temporary injection-site effects such as pain, tenderness, swelling, redness, bleeding, or bruising. Depending on the area treated, reported adverse reactions can also include headache, eyelid or brow drooping, and other muscle-related effects. BOTOX Cosmetic also carries important warnings about rare but potentially serious effects, which your provider should review with you before treatment.

Tell your provider if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, breastfeeding, or planning to breastfeed before considering Botox. There are not adequate human data to determine the developmental risk of BOTOX Cosmetic during pregnancy, and it is not known whether BOTOX Cosmetic is present in human breast milk. Your provider can discuss what that means for your individual situation.

At GENEVA Med in Alpharetta, Botox starts at $9 per unit for new patients, with standard Botox pricing at $12 per unit. What you pay comes down to how many units your plan calls for. Your provider will review your dosing plan and total price before treatment.
