What is Botox?

BOTOX is among the world’s most popular cosmetic treatments, thanks to its safety, efficiency and outstanding cosmetic results.

Our aesthetic center has been built around creating natural-looking, beautiful outcomes, and customized BOTOX injections in Denver are no exception.

What are Dynamic Wrinkles?

Dynamic wrinkles develop due to constant facial muscle motions, including smiling, frowning, squinting, raising your brows, or concentrating. While your facial expressions are an important part of how you communicate, smoothing deep creases won’t negatively impact your natural expressiveness, as long as the treatment is performed by a true professional. BOTOX in Denver at La Fontaine Aesthetics can help correct:

  • Crow’s feet
  • Deep brow creases
  • Vertical creases between the eyes
  • Lip lines

How Does BOTOX Work?

BOTOX is very versatile and is used for a range of physical conditions beyond facial rejuvenation. It works by blocking nerve signals to specifically targeted muscles. Once the product enters the muscle strand, it halts the contraction of that muscle, causing wrinkles and lines to relax and appear softer and less noticeable. As the months pass, the body naturally sheds the substance, after which re-treatment is necessary.

Botox Patient Testimonial

Dr. Ken Oleszek and Adrian Hunt at La Fontaine Aesthetics are amazing. He has been doing my Botox/Dysport/Fillers for many years, and I aways love the results. His calming bedside manner, and the time he takes to listen, are greatly appreciated.

What are some other uses for BOTOX?

  • Chronic migraines

    BOTOX has been FDA approved to treat chronic headaches by limiting the signals from the nerves causing the constant pain. This treatment must be performed by a physician after a medical examination. We find if there is a component of tension in a patient’s headache symptoms, there may be improvement with a BOTOX treatment.

  • Excessive sweating

    If you suffer from overactive sweat glands, BOTOX can reduce this uncomfortable and embarrassing problem. BOTOX in Denver is effective to reduce excess sweat in the underarms and on the hands.

  • Slimming the lower face

    When the masseter muscle hypertrophies, a square jaw can create a masculine appearance. This can be caused from habitual grinding of the teeth or it can occur naturally in patients of certain ethnicities. Using BOTOX to decrease the grinding and/or masseter muscle size is a minimally invasive way to improve facial contours.

What can I expect after my BOTOX treatment?

Results from BOTOX in Denver will become apparent within about 5 days, but this may vary from client to client, and some will see their changes instantly. Over the next few weeks, your results will continue to improve as your dynamic wrinkles soften and smooth out. Your BOTOX treatment results will last 3 and 4 months, at which point you can undergo a touchup.

BOTOX FAQ

Are BOTOX injections painful?

Prior to your injections, we can apply a topical anesthetic, but many patients don’t need any numbing. The needle used is extremely fine, and the entire treatment requires only about fifteen minutes. You will feel the “pinch” of the needle, but this is minor.

Will my face look frozen?

In BOTOX injections, it is all about injector technique. You should ensure your injections are performed by a licensed medical expert who understands facial anatomy. You will look like yourself – just younger – when your treatment is performed at La Fontaine.

How long does it take to see results?

The smoothing effect typically becomes noticeable within 24 to 48 hours. The smoothing effect lasts for about four months for most patients, after which they return for another treatment.

What is the most popular BOTOX treatment?

Have you been perceived to be concerned or angry? BOTOX smooths the frown lines between the eyebrows, often called the ’11’ lines, or if 3 frown lines are present the ’111’s’. BOTOX injections can help project a calm and relaxed appearance, making this among the most sought after cosmetic treatments.
