The holidays are a time of joy, cheer, togetherness, and plentiful photo ops. If fine lines or wrinkles have you unenthused about posing for the camera, consider Botox® injections.
This popular minimally invasive treatment takes only minutes, and the results often last for several months. That means less hassle during an already hectic time of year for many.
At his New Rochelle, New York offices, board-certified neurologist Dr. Farhad Elyaderani and his team offer Botox to help you look and feel your best.
If you’re interested in getting Botox before the holidays, read on to learn more about this injectable treatment, including smart scheduling tips.
Botox contains purified forms of botulinum toxins. Once injected through tiny needles, these ingredients temporarily paralyze muscles in the treatment area.
As a result, you can expect a range of skin-enhancing benefits, such as fewer or softer crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines. Botox can also improve the appearance of your smile and provide a nonsurgical brow lift.
Cosmetic surgery can provide a more youthful appearance, but not everyone wishes to endure invasive treatment. Unlike surgery, Botox requires no downtime. You may have a bit of swelling and redness after your treatment, but those effects usually diminish on their own within hours.
Many people appreciate that Botox provides natural-looking results if you work with a qualified and experienced provider. You won’t look as though you went “under the knife.” You’ll likely appear to have had a restful night’s sleep or aged backward a few years.
And if you don’t completely love your Botox results, you can rest easy knowing the results are temporary.
While results vary, Botox results typically start appearing within a week of treatment and last up to 3-4 months. So, to reap the most benefit, aim to get your treatment 1-2 weeks before the holidays begin. We also offer Dysport, which works like Botox but kicks in faster.
If you’re not sure how much Botox or Dysport you’d like, our team can start with a modest amount and see how your skin responds. You can also schedule a touch-up if you find that your results aren’t as pronounced as you’d like within a few weeks.
We’d love to help you feel more confident about your appearance this holiday season. To learn more about Botox before the holidays or to schedule your treatment, call Dr. Farhad Elyaderani or request an appointment online.
