Botox® is the brand name for onabotulinumtoxinA, a highly purified and diluted form of botulinum toxin type A—a naturally occurring neurotoxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacteria. In its raw form, botulinum toxin causes botulism (food poisoning), but when manufactured for medical/cosmetic use, it’s safe in micro-doses (nanograms), FDA-approved since 1989 (medical) and 2002 (cosmetic).
Botox blocks acetylcholine release at neuromuscular junctions, temporarily paralyzing targeted muscles (3-6 months) without affecting sensation, nearby muscles, or the nervous system. This relaxes dynamic wrinkles (from repeated expressions) like forehead lines, glabellar “11’s,” and crow’s feet—preventing deepening over time.
Sessions: 30-60 mins, 20-50 units upper face. Results: 3-7 days onset, peak at 2 weeks.
Anyone noticing early dynamic wrinkles (from expressions) or wanting prevention—typically ages 25-65. Ideal candidates:
Factors: Units/dosage, metabolism, repeat treatments improve longevity.
1 session = Noticeable improvement (3-7 days onset, peak at 14 days)
Optimal: 3-4 sessions (every 3-4 months initially) for cumulative prevention and longevity up to 6 months.
First-timers: 1 session smooths lines; 2-3 build prevention.
Maintenance: 2-3/year keeps results steady.
At Beauty Pro NYC: Start with Upper Face Trio package (11’s, forehead, crow’s feet)—personalized plan.
No, Botox won’t freeze your face when done properly.
It softens wrinkles by relaxing specific muscles, preserving natural expressions.
The goal: subtle smoothness, not a “frozen” look. Skilled providers dose conservatively for movement.
