Get Rid of Wrinkles Without Surgery

Benefits of Botox in Sewickley

Versatility

Botox can be used for various treatments and has delivered successful outcomes for men and women of all skin types and ethnicities.

Effectiveness

Botox is so effective, that it has become one of the most popular injectables for smoothing skin and preventing future wrinkles.

Safety

Not only is Botox FDA-approved, but it’s also been backed by more than 15 years of clinical studies.

Our Botox Process

Step 1

Arrive on Time

We prefer that you arrive on time for your appointment so you can sit back and relax during your Botox injections. You are able to fill out most required forms online, so you should not have to arrive early for paperwork.

Step 2

Relax & Enjoy

Trust that you are in the hands of an experienced member of our esthetician team, and just take this time to enjoy the Botox process. Botox is not painful, and the only possible discomfort is the injection itself, so you can take the time to either chat with your provider, or sit back, relax, and listen to our calming music.

Step 3

Next Steps

For Botox in Sewickley, we’ll give you any aftercare instructions you may need, and we’ll schedule another appointment if your care team determines you need multiple sessions. You won’t see results immediately, but you’ll be able to start seeing the full results in the coming 7–10 days!

How to Prep for Botox

10 Days Before

Avoid aspirin (e.g. Bayer, Excedrin) and other blood-thinning medications (e.g. vitamin E, fish oil) for at least 10 days before injections.

3 Days Before

Avoid ibuprofen (e.g. Advil, Motrin) for 3 days before injections. Note: if you’re concerned about pain or bruising, you can take Tylenol before your appointment.

Zinc Supplements

Consider a zinc supplement in the weeks leading up to your Botox injections. Studies have shown that higher levels of zinc in the body are related to higher efficacy of Botox and other injectables.

Retinoid Products

Discontinue the use of retinoid (vitamin A) products for at least 2 days before and 2 days after treatment.

Avoid Alcohol

Avoid alcohol for 2 days prior to injections, as this too can thin the blood and cause bruising from treatment.

Drink Water

Make sure your skin is properly hydrated by drinking adequate amounts of water and using moisturizer morning and night.

How to Get the Most From Botox

No Touching/Massaging

No touching or massaging the injection site to avoid moving the material to a spot it wasn’t intended to be.

Stay Upright

Keep your head upright for at least 4 hours to help reduce swelling and speed up the recovery process.

Sunlight/Sunscreen

Avoid direct sunlight and use sunscreen when outside, as UV rays can disperse the injectable in your skin and shorten Botox’s effect.

Avoid for 1 Week

Avoid scrubs, toners, and abrasive cleansers for at least a week to ensure you do not disrupt the precisely-applied Botox.

Sleeping

Sleep with your face up and slightly elevated if you are experiencing swelling.

Physical Activity

Avoid strenuous activity or aerobics for 24 hours after your injections.
