What is Botox

The gold standard in non-surgical wrinkle reduction

Botox is the most well-known and widely used cosmetic injectable in the world. This FDA-approved treatment uses botulinum toxin type A to temporarily smooth moderate to severe wrinkles and fine lines — particularly in the upper face.

It works by temporarily blocking signals from nerves to muscles. When injected into specific facial muscles, it prevents them from contracting — softening existing lines and helping keep them from deepening over time.

At New Age Medspa, Botox is administered by our nurse practitioner injectors — Natasha Sherrill, FNP-C, owner and founder, and Brie Freckleton, AGACNP — both trained to create natural, refreshed results. Never frozen, never overdone.

Your visit

A 20-minute treatment, start to finish

A seamless experience from consultation to aftercare — with no downtime required.

01

Consultation

Your injector — Natasha or Brie — evaluates your facial anatomy, discusses your concerns, and builds a plan tailored to your goals.

02

Preparation

The treatment area is cleansed and marked. Most patients don't require numbing, though ice or topical anesthetic is available.

03

Precise injection

Using an ultra-fine needle, Botox is injected into targeted muscles. The sensation is brief — most describe it as a small pinch.

04

Post-treatment

Return to your day immediately. We'll send you home with aftercare guidelines to optimize your results.

What to expect

Your results timeline

Botox doesn't work the moment you leave. You'll notice less movement first, then softer lines, with the full result at about two weeks.

Days 3–7
Less movement begins
You start to notice less movement. Frowning or raising your brows takes more effort. Lines at rest haven't fully softened yet.
Days 7–10
Lines softening
Most of the change is in. One side can catch up a day or two after the other, which is normal.
Day 14
Full results
This is your full result. We check symmetry and movement at your two-week visit, so wait until then to judge whether anything needs adjusting.
3–4 months
Wearing off
Movement returns gradually, not all at once. Most people rebook when they notice lines forming again.
Have an event coming up? Book at least two weeks ahead. That gives Botox time to reach full effect and leaves room for your follow-up. Our event-ready planner will help you work backward from the date.

Timelines are typical ranges, not guarantees. Results vary with dose, muscle strength, metabolism, and treatment area.

Is it right for you

Good candidates & considerations

Botox may be right for you if…

  • ✓ You have moderate to severe wrinkles or fine lines
  • ✓ You want to prevent wrinkles from deepening
  • ✓ You're 18 years or older
  • ✓ You want a non-surgical anti-aging option
  • ✓ You want quick results with no recovery time
  • ✓ You have realistic expectations about outcomes

It's not recommended if you…

  • × Are pregnant or breastfeeding

Questions & answers

Frequently asked questions about Botox

How long does Botox last?

Botox typically lasts 3–4 months. Movement returns gradually, so most people rebook when they notice lines starting to form again. Duration varies with dose, metabolism, muscle strength, and treatment area. If your results fade faster than you'd like, ask about Daxxify.

Does Botox hurt?

Most patients report minimal discomfort — a small pinch or pressure. We use ultra-fine needles and advanced injection techniques for maximum comfort. Ice or topical numbing is available if you're particularly sensitive, though most patients don't need it.

What's the difference between Botox and fillers?

Botox relaxes muscles to treat dynamic wrinkles caused by movement. Dermal fillers add volume to smooth static wrinkles and restore facial contours. Many patients use both for comprehensive results — we can walk you through the right combination at your consult.

Will I look frozen or unnatural?

No. When administered by a skilled injector, Botox provides natural-looking results — you'll maintain facial expressions while enjoying smoother skin. The "frozen" look comes from over-treatment or improper technique, something our conservative dosing philosophy is built to avoid.

When will I see my Botox results?

Most people start to notice less movement in 3–7 days. Lines keep softening through the second week, and the full result shows at about two weeks. That's when we see you for your follow-up, so wait until then before judging whether anything needs adjusting. If you're planning around an event, book at least two weeks ahead.

Can I earn Allē rewards points on Botox?

Yes. Botox earns points through Allē, Allergan's free rewards program, and those points can be redeemed as savings on future treatments. Sign up before your visit and give the front desk the email or phone number you used, so your points are applied at checkout.

Can I get Botox while pregnant or breastfeeding?

No. Botox is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Its safety hasn't been established in pregnancy or while nursing. We advise waiting until after you've finished breastfeeding to resume treatments.

What should I avoid after Botox?
For 24 hours after treatment, avoid:
  • Lying flat for 4 hours after injection
  • Rubbing or massaging the treated area
  • Strenuous exercise
  • Excessive heat (saunas, hot yoga, hot tubs)
  • Alcohol
  • Facial treatments or massages
You can return to most normal activities immediately — we'll provide detailed written aftercare instructions.
How many units of Botox will I need?

This varies by muscle strength, goals, and areas treated. As a rough guide: frown lines often take 10–25 units, forehead 8–20, and crow's feet 12–24. Your consultation includes a personalized recommendation with an exact quote before anything begins.

Are there side effects from Botox?

Botox is very safe when administered by a trained medical professional. Common temporary side effects include mild bruising or swelling at injection sites, temporary redness, slight headache, and minor tenderness. Serious side effects are rare but can include eyelid drooping, asymmetry, or allergic reaction. We use precise techniques to minimize all risks and review your full medical history first.

How do I prepare for my Botox appointment?
To minimize bruising risk:
  • Avoid optional blood thinners (ibuprofen, fish oil) for 7 days prior. Never stop a prescribed medication without asking your prescriber
  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before
  • Come with a clean face — no makeup
  • Bring a list of current medications
  • Stay hydrated
We'll send a complete preparation guide when you book.
