BOTOX® Cosmetic in Jacksonville, FL

Each time you take a look at yourself in the mirror, are you troubled by fine lines or wrinkles developing on your brow area and in the skin around your eyes? Frequently called dynamic wrinkles, these skin changes develop from continuous expressions, like frowning, squinting, and smiling. As men and women age, these wrinkles ultimately stay put and can make them look less youthful. With BOTOX Cosmetic treatments, we may be able to temporarily stop the formation of moderate to severe frown lines, Crow's feet, and forehead creases. BOTOX is made from a clean type A strain of botulinum toxin. It works to temporarily disengage the facial muscles that enable those expressions, allowing the overlying skin to become smoother on its own. Botox is FDA approved. During your initial consultation at Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates, Dr. Erik Nuveen and Dr. Courtney Caplin will evaluate your lines and present a treatment plan to you.  They are both board certified though the American Board of Facial Cosmetic Surgery and are thrilled to perform BOTOX as a nonsurgical cosmetic option to help men and women attain a more youthful, renewed appearance. We welcome you to call our office in Jacksonville, FL to learn more about BOTOX Cosmetic!

Adults seeking a noninvasive option to minimize frown lines, forehead creases, or Crow's feet may be prime candidates for BOTOX procedures at Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates in Jacksonville, FL. BOTOX injections have increased in popularity among younger women and men, too. Even though adults between the ages of 20 – 30 might not yet exhibit the signs of aging, BOTOX can be provided as a preventive solution to slow down the aging process by temporarily reducing or delaying the development of dynamic lines. Since BOTOX is provided during a fast, outpatient service, your injections can commonly be administered at the same appointment. The formula will be injected into the problem areas of your brow or upper face using a fine needle. The treatment itself takes about 5 – 10 minutes to complete, and the majority of patients experience only slight discomfort. After your visit, you are welcome to leave our Jacksonville, FL office and get right back to your normal day.

How many BOTOX treatments will I likely need?
The number of BOTOX treatments required will differ according to individual concerns and the extent of your lines and wrinkles. Our team at Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates will recommend the appropriate number of BOTOX units based on your treatment outcomes and whether you prefer to treat the Crow's feet, brow area, or forehead. To refresh your aesthetic outcomes, our experts may suggest having BOTOX treatments every few months at our Jacksonville, FL facility.

Can BOTOX be paired with additional aesthetic treatments?
BOTOX typically pairs well with other noninvasive solutions at Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates for patients who wish to minimize signs of aging. If you experience more extensive and pronounced lines, our team could talk with you about administering a filler for smoother outcomes. To further maximize your youthful appearance, our team could perform other complementary procedures.

Is there a difference between wrinkle relaxers and fillers?
While wrinkle relaxers, like BOTOX, are administered to smooth fine lines by temporarily preventing your muscle engagement, fillers are a different category of aesthetic injections that increase volume in the face. Fillers are intended to volumize sunken areas and reduce static wrinkles. Our skilled providers can decide if you may benefit from a dermal filler (like Restylane® or JUVÉDERM®) to further enhance your BOTOX outcomes.

If you are bothered by facial lines that are making you look older, BOTOX injections at Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates could be an excellent nonsurgical skin enhancement option. BOTOX procedures can smooth facial wrinkles and creases to highlight your natural appearance.
