Botox In Manhattan

Botox® is one of the most well-known cosmetic treatments and has gained immense popularity throughout the years. This is due to its proven record of helping patients fight the most common signs of aging. In his Manhattan office, Dr. Ronald Espinoza offers Botox to patients throughout New York to help smooth fine lines and wrinkles and reveal a more youthful-looking complexion.

How Does Botox Work?

Botox is an injectable treatment that can be used for both cosmetic and medical purposes. It uses botulinum toxin type A, the cosmetic form of botulinum toxin, a protein substance. When injected, it temporarily reduces muscle activity by blocking the nerve impulses, preventing wrinkling. Botox can soften existing wrinkles and prevent them from becoming more pronounced when used by a skilled provider. This helps improve the appearance of wrinkles while still ensuring you maintain the ability to make facial expressions.

Areas Botox Can Improve

Botox injections in Manhattan can improve the appearance of wrinkles in the face and neck. Some of the most common areas for Botox include:

Frown lines
Crow’s feet
Forehead lines or creases
Smoker’s lines
A gummy smile
Marionette lines
Eyebrows, including
Wrinkles along the décolleté
Chin cleft or indentation
Fine lines or creases along the neck
Facial scars

How Botox is Administered

Botox can be administered in just 10 to 15 minutes, making it a convenient choice for even those with the busiest schedules. The treatment is injected directly into the muscle using a thin needle. Because of the size of the needle, many patients find that topical numbing creams are unnecessary, although we do provide them when necessary.

Once the treatment is complete, you will be able to return to your regular activities, and no recovery time is required. Some patients may experience some redness or bleeding at the injection sites, but this clears up shortly after treatment. Because of how easy and quick Botox treatments are, it’s easy to integrate them into your beauty routine.

Results and Recovery After Botox Treatment

For each of our Manhattan patients, Botox results will vary. In some, changes will be visible within a few days, while others may require a few weeks for the results to take full effect. Your results should last for 3 to 6 months, and treatment should be repeated every 3 to 4 months for best results.
