At Amenity Day Spa, we offer Botox treatments as part of our comprehensive range of skincare services. Botox is a popular and highly effective cosmetic procedure that has been used for many years to treat wrinkles and fine lines on the face.
Botox, short for Botulinum Toxin, is a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When injected in small doses, it works as a muscle relaxant and can temporarily paralyze the muscles that cause wrinkles and fine lines on the face.
Botox works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting and causing wrinkles. It essentially freezes the targeted muscles, resulting in a smoother and more youthful appearance.
Botox is commonly used to treat dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repetitive facial movements such as frowning, squinting, or smiling. These wrinkles typically appear on the forehead, between the eyebrows (also known as the "11 lines"), and around the eyes (known as crow's feet). Botox can also be used to treat other cosmetic concerns such as a gummy smile, downturned corners of the mouth, and neck bands.
The results of Botox are typically seen within 3-5 days after treatment, with full results visible within 1-2 weeks. The effects of Botox usually last for 3-4 months, depending on the individual's metabolism and the amount of product used.
Aside from its cosmetic benefits, Botox also has some medical uses, such as treating chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and muscle spasms.
Before undergoing a Botox treatment at Amenity Day Spa, our highly trained and experienced staff will conduct a thorough consultation to assess your individual needs and desired outcomes. The actual procedure only takes a few minutes, and most patients experience minimal discomfort, with some reporting only feeling a slight pinch.
After the treatment, it is recommended to avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area for 24 hours to prevent the Botox from spreading to unintended muscles. Mild bruising, redness, or swelling may occur but should subside within a few days.
Price: $14/unit
The actual injection only takes a few minutes, but the entire appointment typically lasts around 30 minutes due to the consultation and preparation process.
When administered correctly, Botox should not result in a "frozen" appearance. Our goal at Amenity Day Spa is to provide natural-looking results that enhance your features and smooth out wrinkles without sacrificing facial expressions.
The effects of Botox typically last 3-4 months, so many patients schedule touch-up appointments every 3-4 months to maintain their results. However, this may vary depending on the individual and the amount of product used.
Amenity Day Spa offers Botox at $14/unit.
