Botox/Toxins

Conveniently located to serve St. Petersburg, FL and Tampa, FL

As we age and our face moves while creating expressions, permanent lines begin to form in certain areas like the forehead, between the brows, or the crow’s feet. Botox, Dysport, or other “toxins” are neuromodulating medications that, when injected, temporarily weaken muscles which can help to reduce or prevent line and wrinkle formation.
Toxins are a nonsurgical way of looking refreshed and rejuvenated as well as reducing lines and wrinkles without the need for invasive treatments.

Toxins Procedure

During your consultation with Dr. Caceres, your facial muscle strength and anatomy as well as the location of the problem lines or wrinkles will be completely assessed. The pros and cons of each “toxin” medication will be discussed with you so you can choose the best one for you. The medication will then be gently and expertly injected into the key muscles in each treatment area to achieve the desired results.

Results

Facial muscle relaxation takes about 1 week after injection to see results. Results can last anywhere from 3-6 months depending on the medication used. There is minimal downtime from the procedure although slight discomfort, redness, or bruising may occur.
