How it Works

The injection Process

The beauty of a BOTOX^® Cosmetic treatment is that it's a simple, 10-minute, non-surgical process. A few tiny injections, and within days there can be a noticeable improvement in the moderate to severe frown lines between the brows that can last up to 4 months. Results may vary. And there’s no recovery time. You can even do it on your lunch break.

• Dr. Simmons will administer several tiny injections of BOTOX^® Cosmetic directly into the muscles that cause those moderate to severe frown lines between the brows.

  

• Dr. Simmons will determine where to administer the injections by examining your ability to

   

  move certain muscles in your brow area. The location, size, and use of the muscles that create a furrowed brow vary markedly among individuals.
• No anesthesia is required, although Dr. Simmons may choose to numb the area with a cold pack or anesthetic cream prior to injecting. Discomfort is usually minimal and brief.
• You can expect to be in and out of C. W. Simmons Jr., M.D., FACS office without downtime. You may see a marked improvement in the moderate to severe frown lines between your brows within days. Improvement may continue for as long as a month, and could last up to 4 months.
