Botox®

Developing fine lines and wrinkles during the aging process is inevitable, but sometimes these symptoms of aging can be exacerbated by habitual facial expressions. Repeated muscle and facial movements lead to dynamic wrinkles that can make you look older. Botox injections are made up of a botulinum toxin that disrupts the signals between your nerves and your muscles. Botox injections help to smooth the skin resulting in a more youthful, wrinkle-free appearance.

What Is Botox?

Botox is the most widely known botulinum toxin type A injectable that can temporarily smooth wrinkles and lines on the face. Botulinum toxin type A is a neurotoxin that temporarily prevents muscle movement by disrupting the signals between the nerves and muscles. Botox injections result in more relaxed facial muscles that no longer contribute to dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements like scowling, scrunching, squinting, or frowning.

Botox injections are priced at $13 a unit.

*We offer our clients a variety of neurotoxins including Botox, Xeomin and Dysport.

Body Contouring

I am so grateful for being introduced to the CLT method and the wonderful Andrea and Diana. They have taught me so much and I have experienced an enormous transformation in my body since my first appointment months ago. My family has also noticed a difference and said to me recently “you have never looked better”!!! Forever thankful for my appointments, the changes to my daily routine, and the changes in my mind and body because of CLT! Favorite place ever!!!

Lymphatic Drainage

I have been working with Diana for 2 months now having lymphatic drainage massages and I have never felt better. Her manual technique is amazing and she is so knowledgeable. I have slimmed down quite a bit due to less bloat and overall have more energy. Absolutely will be continuing to see her!

Who Is a Candidate for Botox?

The ideal candidate for Botox injections is someone who is seeking to correct signs of aging on the face that have been caused by dynamic facial movements. These dynamic wrinkles can include glabellar lines, crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, and marionette lines. Because of the relaxing effect Botox has on the muscles, it can also be used to treat conditions like TMJ which can be caused by tight muscles. Those with an allergy to botulinum toxin type A are not candidates for Botox injections. 

Botox Treatment

To begin treatment, an esthetician at Self CenteRx will provide a thorough consultation and a plan is agreed upon. Upon your request, a topical numbing cream can be applied, but most patients do not find it necessary. Once the lidocaine has taken effect the Botox will be injected into the treatment area using a fine gauge needle. Depending on how many areas are being treated, Botox procedures take only about 15 minutes.

Botox Results

Immediately following treatment with Botox, you may experience some mild redness or tenderness. In some cases, the injection site may start to bruise. These side effects should go away after a few days. For the first 24 hours after receiving your Botox injections, you will be asked to abstain from any strenuous activities and exercises, as well as avoid sun exposure and touching your face. You will also be instructed not to lie down for 4-6 hours after treatment. This is to prevent any unwanted product migration that could lead to some annoying side effects. In some cases, the injection site may slightly bruise. Any side effects experienced should go away after a few days.” “Your Botox injections will start showing improvement to the lines and wrinkles on your face in 3-5 days, but it may take up to two weeks for the final results to show. The effects of Botox will last around 3-4 months with maintenance appointments scheduled as needed.
