How does BOTOX® Cosmetic Work?
As we age the repetitive contraction of muscles around the eyes, between the eyes and in the forehead create wrinkles and folds in the skin that are not present when we're younger. The combination of this constant folding of the skin with other environmental damage, such as sun damage and free radical damage (e.g. smoking) results in crow's feet, smokers lips and other cosmetic concerns.
BOTOX® Cosmetic interrupts the chemical communication between the nerves and the muscles in the treatment site. This dramatically reduces the lines caused by muscle contractions, such as crow’s feet. The results last about three months as your body adjusts the muscles begin to contract once again.

Beautiful Eyes By Spa 35
Beautiful Eyes
Botox is not enough
Your eyes are one of the first areas to show the signs of aging. Most times it is the first place someone looks when we meet them. There is constant muscle movement in the area, the skin can be thin and the area can be constantly exposed to the sun.
To return your eyes to their more youthful appearance you may want to consider adding light based procedures to your BOTOX® Cosmetic injection. Such as Laser Skin Resurfacing, Intense Pulsed Light or Skin Tightening. These procedures can help restore the skin collagen and elastin that has been lost in the skin around the eyes.
And, don't forget about the impact you can have on the skin, particularly around the eyes, with the use of the proper skin care products. Foundational products of every skin care regime include a Vitamin A based product (e.g. Retin-A), Vitamin C, cleanser (preferably with a low pH) and a physical sun block (used everyday, preferably applied twice a day). Visit our Beautiful Eyes page to learn more.

BOTOX® Cosmetic is sold by the injected unit, typically in the range of $10-$13 a unit. Each treatment area, each patient and each procedure are unique.

Men usually have stronger, more developed muscles and can expect to need 50-100% more BOTOX® Cosmetic than a female. Generally you can budget between $250 and $450 for your first treatment.

Why isn’t Botox enough?
At Spa 35 we’ve been helping people look their best for many years. We’ve seen a common perspective from our clients that they will look great if they star on a regular schedule of Botox (or Dysport). Unfortunately they are wrong. The aging process includes multiple changes of facial bone, muscle and skin and Botox does not help with many of them. An example is age spots. They make us look older and tired, and Botox nothing to help, but IPL does help. Loose saggy skin is common compliant, Botox won’t help, but CO2 laser resurfacing and Profound RF will help. Botox is a great place to start, but you look your best explore other Spa 35 services.
What are other uses for BOTOX® Cosmetic injections besides Crow's Feet?
