Botox Maintenance

Over the years, Botox has become a household name and the gold standard for noninvasive wrinkle-reduction. In fact, many women and men now consider Botox a part of their regular skincare routine and undergo injections periodically to preserve antiaging effects.

So, how often do you need to have Botox treatments to keep your skin looking smooth and vibrant?

Continue reading to learn all about Botox maintenance in Maryland and how to maximize treatment benefits.

How Does Botox Work?

Botox is an injectable treatment that blocks communication between nerves and facial muscles. In doing so, it temporarily prevents muscles from contracting, limits wrinkle-causing expressions, and relaxes dynamic wrinkles and lines.

How Long Do Botox Results Last?

One of the key advantages of Botox is that it’s a quick and easy way to enhance your antiaging regimen. The neurotoxin typically takes effect in 4-7 days and smooths forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, and neck bands for 3-4 months.

As muscle receptors begin to regenerate, movement and corresponding expression lines will return. For this reason, Botox maintenance is needed to keep wrinkles at bay and preserve a refreshed and youthful appearance.

How Often Do Patients Need to Undergo Botox Maintenance?

Frequency of Botox maintenance depends on each patient’s concerns and goals. Some individuals elect to have touch-up treatments as soon as they notice muscles reactivating. However, others wait until wrinkles and lines fully reappear.

Based on your unique needs and aesthetic preferences, one of our expert injectors will develop a customized timeline for your Botox maintenance. That way, you can continue to look and feel your best, without any disruption to your skincare routine.
