BOTOX

BOTOX offers the ideal, non-surgical solution to treat common signs of aging – including crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, neck bands and frown lines.

As experts in the field, Dr. Schwartz and our other aesthetic providers specialize in the artful application of this treatment – treating the cosmetic imperfections that concern you most while ensuring an extremely natural (and never frozen) result.

How does BOTOX work?

A special injectable medicine available in Thousand Oaks, BOTOX works by temporarily weakening the underlying facial muscles that contribute to deep wrinkles and fine lines. It offers a quick and comfortable way to improve telltale signs of aging, ultimately achieving a more youthful, relaxed and wrinkle-free complexion.

Benefits of BOTOX

There’s a reason why BOTOX is one of the most popular non-surgical treatment options Dr. Schwartz offers. The procedure comes with a number of appealing benefits, including:

Quick treatment and results Most BOTOX injections last ten minutes, and the full results emerge quickly – within just seven days.
Virtually pain-free Thanks to the careful application of ice and numbing cream, as well as our gentle approach, most of our patients find BOTOX injections to be quite comfortable.
Dramatic and natural results Not only can BOTOX be used to smooth lines and restore a more youthful appearance, but we are known for ensuring that each and every one of our patients looks extremely natural – never frozen.

An overview of BOTOX injections

Your appointment for among the best BOTOX Calabasas has to offer will begin during your initial consultation with Dr. Schwartz and/or his nurses. At your initial consultation, you will be carefully evaluated for the signs of aging that concern you most, as well as your facial anatomy. Using this information, a customized treatment plan will be designed to smooth your wrinkles in the most natural and effective way possible.

To begin your actual injections, Dr. Schwartz or our other aesthetic providers will apply ice or a numbing cream to the treatment area to ensure your comfort. You will then be asked to contract your facial muscles so the exact location for the medication can be determined to effectively treat your wrinkles and ensure you’re still able to move your face with ease. The BOTOX will then be administered directly into the underlying muscles, with the almost painless treatment lasting approximately ten minutes.

Immediately after your injections, you will be given special instructions to ensure an optimal result. You will be advised to avoid rubbing your face, exercising and laying flat for 4 hours after the procedure. This is to avoid the rare chance of the BOTOX injection shifting to an unwanted location. Other than that, because Botox is a non-invasive treatment with virtually no side effects, you will be encouraged to resume your normal daily routine immediately.

Is Botox right for you?

As Dr. Schwartz believes in truly personalized care, candidacy for all treatments are done on an individual basis, following a thorough evaluation of the imperfections you’d like to address, as well as your medical history and cosmetic objectives.

With that said, as long as you are between 18 and 65 years of age and would like a non-surgical and extremely effective way to treat crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead wrinkles, neck bands and laugh lines, you may be considered a candidate. During your initial consultation with Dr. Schwartz or his nurses, they will work closely with you to determine whether or not this treatment is in your best interest and can accomplish your precise cosmetic goals.
