About this treatment

Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) is the most studied neuromodulator at our Sunnyvale clinic, used to smooth forehead lines, crow's feet, and frown lines and to slim the masseter for Bay Area patients.

FAQ

How does the treatment work?

Your provider assesses your muscle movement and marks precise injection points. Tiny doses are placed in specific muscles to relax the lines while preserving natural expression.

What is the science behind it?

Botox temporarily blocks the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, preventing targeted muscles from contracting and allowing the skin above to smooth out.

What is the visit like?

Treatment takes 10 to 15 minutes and involves a series of micro-injections. You may feel a tiny pinch. There's no downtime. Results begin appearing in 3 to 7 days and peak at two weeks.
