What is Botox?

Botox is an injectable treatment that helps smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. When Botox is injected into a particular area of your face, it stops the nerves from releasing chemicals that trigger muscle contraction. As a result, the muscles relax and the skin on top stops creasing. 

Botox may also prevent new lines and wrinkles from forming, which may help reduce signs of aging and provide you a more youthful appearance.

What conditions can Botox treat?

If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your skin, Botox is a great way to refresh your look. It can be used to treat various skin conditions, including: 

• Crow’s feet 
• Forehead lines 
• Sagging cheeks, jowls, and skin around the eyes
• Frown lines 

At your Botox consultation, your JAM Wellness Clinics provider can customize a treatment plan to suit your aesthetic goals.  

What is the process for getting Botox?

When you come in for a Botox appointment, the JAM Wellness Clinics specialists perform the treatment in-office. The whole process is simple, quick, and relatively painless. Your provider marks your injection sites and then uses a tiny needle to inject small amounts of Botox into your skin. 

Botox requires no incisions or general anesthesia, and the treatment has minimal downtime and recovery. You can return to your normal activities after, but it’s important that you refrain from rubbing your face as it can spread Botox to other areas. You should also take it easy for the rest of the day. 

How long does Botox last?

It can take some time for the final effects of your Botox treatment to be apparent. Following your Botox treatment, it can take up to a few days to see results*. 

In general, the effects of Botox can last 3-6 months*. When you start to notice the effects fading, you can come in for a follow-up treatment at JAM Wellness Clinics for maintenance. 

Is Botox safe?

Botox is a safe treatment, with few side effects. You might experience slight redness or mild pain at the injection site, but this will quickly clear up after a few days.
