How Botox Works
Strategically placed injections
Every Botox treatment works the same, but each patient receives a specific dose. Botox injections are placed strategically at different points, depending on what part of the face we’re treating.
Relaxing the facial muscles
Botox is a type of compound that targets the facial muscles that cause wrinkles. By placing the injections at different points, the muscles relax and wrinkles fade away.
Results that look natural
People new to Botox often worry about looking “frozen.” By seeing a provider with knowledge of the skin and face, you’ll be able to enjoy a look that is naturally refreshed.

Botox and Skincare
Botox is designed to target your muscles, and while that can help ease the appearance of wrinkles, it does nothing to directly address the health of your skin. Building a quality skincare routine that provides daily support for your skin through hydration and building collagen can boost your Botox results.

One of the questions people often face when they’re deciding whether to get Botox for the first time is how to extend their results. Botox injections are effective, the results can last for several months, but the results are not permanent. Once Botox wears off, your skin goes back to the way it was before. This can be a positive thing, as we age sometimes we change our minds about how we want to look.
If you decide to join the millions of people who get injections every year across the world, you’ll be in good company when you get Botox in Waterloo! Plus, there are a few things you can do to extend the life of your Botox results and make sure you get the most out of your investment.
The first thing you can do to extend your Botox results is to make sure to follow your aftercare instructions. These include avoiding strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours, leaving the treated area alone, and keeping your head elevated for 4 hours post injections. Keeping your head up and avoiding putting physical pressure on the site helps keep the Botox from spreading outside the intended treatment area.
Caring for your skin’s general health is a great way to enhance and extend the life of your Botox injections. Botox targets your muscles, but it doesn’t directly affect the quality of your skin. Maintaining a good daily skincare routine that helps boost collagen and protect from sun damage supports your skin’s health and in turn, helps your Botox results have an even greater effect.
Most people who decide to get Botox do so knowing that they’re going to need a maintenance plan. It’s best to plan for Botox injections every few months, or at least twice a year, to maintain your results for as long as you would like to. Typically, it’s good to schedule your next appointment as soon as you notice the Botox effects starting to fade.
