Halloween is over, fall is in full swing, and the holiday season is around the corner. Thanksgiving dinners, holiday office parties, and New Year’s parties all demand that you look your best. So, while you’re planning your holiday party outfits, you may also think about some aesthetic work to look your best.
Although it might be impossible to squeeze in surgery in such short notice, BOTOX® treatments can soften facial wrinkles to give you a youthful appearance and confidence at your holiday get-togethers and events.
So, if you want to decrease the crow’s feet beside your eyes, smooth over those frown lines above your brow, and experience results in time for Thanksgiving, you should consider BOTOX®. It is the most popular cosmetic procedure because it’s low risk, has minimal downtime, and offers quick results.
BOTOX® works on those dynamic wrinkles that make you look older than you are and make you appear perpetually tired. These wrinkles first appear on your forehead, around your eyes, and between your eyebrows. They are a result of your facial expressions like laughing, frowning, smiling, and crying. When you address these unsightly creases and lines, you’ll look that much more younger and refreshed.
But you must act quickly to ensure results before the holidays. The most improvement appears after three weeks and will last up to four months. Also, any potential bruises or swelling will completely diminish by the time the holiday season arrives.
BOTOX® Benefits
BOTOX® prevents the muscle movement that creates wrinkles and lines around the eyes and forehead. Oftentimes, these dynamic lines are the first signs of aging to appear on your face. After we inject BOTOX® into a specific facial muscle, you may see aesthetic improvement within the first day, with continued wrinkle reduction for a couple of weeks. It is an extremely safe procedure when administered by a board-certified plastic surgeon and a qualified injector.
Crows Feet
Those wrinkles that appear on the corner of the eye are caused by laughing, smiling, or squinting. They’re also called crow’s feet, and historically, they’ve been incredibly difficult to treat. But now, BOTOX® can be injected in the delicate muscles by the eyes and soften the appearance of the fine lines.
You can create drastic improvement just by treating your crow’s feet. Your eyes are the focal point of any conversation or attention—they can either age you or make you look much younger than you really are. So, when you effectively reduce or eliminate even a small group of lines, your friends and family will wonder why you look so much younger.
Forehead and Brow
BOTOX® is commonly administered to the muscles in the forehead and eyebrow area—the muscles responsible for creating various expressions. There are muscles in the forehead that pull down the eyebrows to express a frown or scowl, others force up the eyebrows to make us look more attentive and alert.
BOTOX® will prevent muscle movement to reduce the lines and wrinkles created by your facial expressions. Although this is a temporary solution, it’s been known to train muscles to move less over time with regular use.
When the horizontal lines across your forehead and the vertical lines between your brows have lessened in appearance, you’ll be amazed at how youthful and attentive you’ll look. People will struggle to guess what’s different about you, but the truth is you will look younger and more beautiful for the holiday season.
Beyond the Holidays
We understand your cosmetic goals are to age gracefully and look good each day, including after the holidays. BOTOX® injections actually perform better with repeated treatment sessions.
As the BOTOX® injection’s effect starts to diminish, another session can continue your results. Or perhaps you wish for a more permanent solution with a brow lift or eyelid surgery; we can talk about that as well. So, if you are interested in looking your best for the holidays, or starting a plan for aesthetic enhancement and facial beauty, contact us for a consultation.
