At our Denver medical spa, we’re often asked at what age BOTOX® Cosmetic is most appropriate. There’s no single answer to that question. BOTOX® Cosmetic isn’t administered based on a specific age, but rather according to your desired results. If you want to temporarily reduce frown lines, BOTOX® Cosmetic may be the solution you’re looking for… regardless of your age.*
What BOTOX® Can Do
BOTOX® Cosmetic is FDA-approved for treating lines and wrinkles on the brow and around the eyes.* This treatment, performed on an outpatient basis at our medical spa in Denver, temporarily paralyzes the muscles that have created wrinkles in the skin. Repeated facial expressions, such as smiling and frowning, combined with the loss of skin elasticity, cause wrinkles and lines to form on your once-smooth complexion. Stopping the muscles that emphasize these wrinkle-causing movements helps diminish the appearance and progression of wrinkles.*
What BOTOX® Cannot Do
BOTOX® Cosmetic is not a wrinkle filler. The wrinkles on your face will not be filled in by BOTOX®, but they can become less noticeable.* BOTOX® Cosmetic is also not capable of filling in the “hollowness” in the cheeks that often comes with age, and will not reduce sagging of the cheeks or jowls. For these cosmetic needs, consider an injectable filler like JUVÉDERM® or Restylane® or facial cosmetic surgery.
Achieving Optimum Results
BOTOX®, much like any other cosmetic treatment, works best for those who have realistic expectations.* With the high elevation and harsh weather conditions we face in Denver, BOTOX® can help prematurely aged skin look younger.* Regardless of your age, please contact us today to see if BOTOX® Cosmetic may be the right solution for you.
