How long does it take to start seeing results with botox injections?
The number one question I am asked by my happy patients is, “how long will I see results from botox?”
Most of the time I give a long winded answer, giving patients detailed information about how long to expect results for various concerns. However, it dawned on me that what I needed to do was get actual botox injection before and after pictures and show the patient their own results.
So, How long does it take to start seeing results with botox injections? Let’s dive in.
Botox is a popular cosmetic procedure that can be used to treat a number of different conditions. Most people are familiar with the use of botox as a treatment for frown lines and forehead wrinkles. However, this substance can also be used to treat other areas of the face and body. A common use for botox injections is to treat hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating.
How Long Does Botox Take to Work?
The short answer is from 5 to 15 days on average, depending on the brand and other factors.
When you visit your license medical professional for a botox procedure, they will inject it into specific areas of your face or body depending on your symptoms.
Botox works by blocking signals from nerves to muscles, which causes them to relax and become less active. This allows facial muscles, such as those around the eyes and forehead, to become less tense and appear smoother over time.
Botox usually takes several days before you will see any results from your treatment session at the doctor's office. The length of time that it takes for you to see results depends on how long it takes for your body's immune system cells to break down the product in your body so it can no longer have an effect on your skin's appearance.
Allergan Botox, Dysport and Jeuveau are the most popular botulinum toxin products. They are effective in reducing wrinkles, but there are some differences between them.
For example:
Dysport is a botulinum toxin type A that is chemically similar to Allergan Botox and Jeuveau. It contains the same active ingredient, onabotulinumtoxinA, but has a slightly different method of release into the body, making it one of the fast acting toxin.
In conclusion
Botox will not work over night, but it should start to work in a week or so and the results will only get better from here on out. You might start noticing that frown lines are getting smaller and you are having less of those dreaded wrinkles which a lot of patients were afraid about in the beginning. Botox is just like exercise for your face and by maintaining this treatment you will continue to see great results as long as you let your body rest from time to time.
