Ideal for those seeking a refreshed appearance, these treatments can help you look and feel your best.
When you notice lines and wrinkles…
Dynamic wrinkles form due to repeated facial movements like smiling, frowning, or squinting. These lines develop as underlying muscles contract, causing the skin to crease. Over time, as collagen and elastin levels decline, these creases become more prominent and persist even when the face is at rest. Neuromodulators such as Botox work by relaxing these facial muscles, softening expression lines, and reducing dynamic wrinkles.
Many combine Botox with Juvederm fillers for a more complete rejuvenation. While Botox relaxes muscles to smooth expression lines, fillers restore lost volume and soften static wrinkles. Together, they create a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
What is BOTOX®?
BOTOX in Berkeley is an injectable treatment that temporarily relaxes the facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. By targeting these muscles, these treatments smooth the overlying skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Botox is derived from a purified protein called botulinum toxin, which safely blocks nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. The result is a natural, refreshed look that enhances your facial vitality. Ideal for treating crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines, these treatments offer a subtle yet significant improvement.
Issues addressed with BOTOX®
- Persistent fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes (crow’s feet)
- Forehead lines that remain visible even when your face is at rest
- Deep concentration or frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines
- Noticeable creases around the mouth (smoker’s lines)
- Dynamic wrinkles not responding to skincare products
The steps involved in your BOTOX® treatment
Treatment with BOTOX in Berkeley begins with a thorough consultation, during which your aesthetic provider will assess your facial anatomy and discuss your goals. After identifying the areas to be treated, the skin is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied. Using a fine needle, the provider injects small amounts of BOTOX into the targeted muscles. The injections are precise, ensuring minimal discomfort. The entire process takes 10-15 minutes.
After your treatment for BOTOX, you can resume most normal activities immediately, though it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive sun exposure for the first 24 hours. You may notice minor redness or swelling at the injection sites, which usually subsides quickly. The results will begin to appear within a few days, with full effects visible in about two weeks. Regular follow-up appointments can help maintain your refreshed appearance.

If you are considering BOTOX in Berkeley, you can expect to see initial results from your treatment within a few days. The final results become apparent after about two weeks, as the treated muscles gradually relax and the skin smooths out. During this period, you’ll notice a reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The effects generally last three to four months, at which point you may choose to schedule a follow-up appointment to maintain your refreshed look.
