What is Botox?

Botox (Botulinum toxin type A) is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles. When injected in precise doses, it softens dynamic wrinkles — the lines formed by repeated facial expressions — without affecting surrounding tissue or sensation.

The treatment takes about 15 minutes. Results develop over 3–10 days as the injected muscles gradually relax. There is no recovery period, and most clients return to normal activity immediately.

Common Treatment Areas

Forehead Lines

Horizontal lines across the forehead caused by repeated brow elevation. Typically 10–20 units.

Glabella (Frown Lines)

Vertical lines between the brows, often called '11s'. Typically 20–25 units. One of the most popular treatment areas.

Crow's Feet

Radiating lines at the outer corners of the eyes from smiling and squinting. Typically 10–15 units per side.

Brow Lift

A small dose placed below the brow tail lifts the outer brow and opens the eye. Typically 2–4 units per side.

Lip Flip

Relaxes the upper lip muscle to create the appearance of fuller lips without filler. Typically 4–6 units.

Jaw Slimming

Reduces masseter muscle bulk for a slimmer jawline or relief from teeth grinding. Typically 25–50 units per side.

How Long Does Botox Last?

Botox results last 3 to 4 months for most clients. First-time clients may metabolize the product faster. Clients who maintain consistent appointments often see longer-lasting results over time as the targeted muscles gradually weaken from disuse.

Factors that affect longevity include your metabolism, the treatment area, and the units used. High-movement areas like crow's feet typically metabolize faster than the glabella.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Botox last?

Botox results typically last 3 to 4 months. First-time clients often see results on the shorter end of that range, while clients who maintain regular appointments may find results last longer as the treated muscles gradually relax over time. We recommend scheduling a follow-up at about 3 months.

Does Botox hurt?

Most clients describe Botox injections as a quick pinch or mild pressure lasting only a second or two. The needles used are very fine, and the procedure is brief. A topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand for clients with lower pain tolerance. There is no significant discomfort after the appointment.

How many units of Botox do I need?

The number of units depends on the treatment area and your muscle strength. Forehead lines typically require 10 to 20 units, crow's feet 10 to 15 units per side, and frown lines (glabella) 20 to 25 units. Your injector will assess your facial anatomy and movement patterns and recommend a unit count at your consultation.

What is Baby Botox?

Baby Botox uses smaller doses of Botulinum toxin to soften lines while preserving natural facial movement. It is ideal for first-timers, clients in their late 20s or 30s using Botox preventatively, or anyone who wants subtle results rather than a completely frozen appearance. It requires more frequent touch-ups than a standard dose.

Can I exercise after Botox?

We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, saunas, and lying down flat for the first 4 hours after Botox. Light activity is fine. The restriction is temporary — elevated heart rate and heat can potentially diffuse the product before it fully settles into the targeted muscles.

How soon will I see Botox results?

You will start to see Botox take effect within 3 to 5 days. Full results are visible at 10 to 14 days as the treated muscles fully relax. We recommend scheduling a 2-week follow-up appointment for any minor touch-ups, particularly for first-time clients.

How much does Botox cost in Boston?

Botox pricing in Boston ranges widely depending on the injector and unit count. Most practices charge per unit, with rates typically between $12 and $18 per unit in the Boston market. A standard forehead + glabella treatment runs 30 to 40 units. Contact Forever Young Spa at 262 Beacon Street for current unit pricing.
