BOTOX® in Phoenix, AZ

If you're concerned about the development of creases and wrinkles on your forehead and around your eyes, our concierge service offers unlimited solutions at an affordable annual cost. Dynamic lines and wrinkles appear as a result of facial motions, like frowning, smiling, and squinting. As we age, these repeated facial movements can create creases that stay in place. With BOTOX Cosmetic treatments, we can significantly reduce the appearance of Crow's feet, frown lines, and forehead creases. At Altogether You Med Spa, José A. Ortiz, N.M.D. is pleased to offer BOTOX injections as a minimally invasive aesthetic procedure. We encourage you to get in touch with our location in Phoenix, AZ to learn more about BOTOX!

Signs of aging and wrinkles can distract from our better features and make us seem older. BOTOX is a great technique for helping you attain a more youthful, polished look. Although the outcomes are not permanent, you can reap the benefits for a few months before needing to consider a subsequent treatment. Patients may also receive added benefits from BOTOX at Altogether You Med Spa, such as:

• Very little pain: BOTOX sessions utilize a very small needle, so the procedures feel like a minor skin prick
• No rest or rehab: Owing to its nonsurgical nature, you can return to your everyday routine after sessions
• Rapid appointments: BOTOX treatments will take as few as 10 minutes
• Straightforward maintenance: Individuals who want to maintain the appearance long-term can find that follow-up appointments are quick and doable for day-to-day activities

During your initial consult at Altogether You Med Spa, Dr. José A. Ortiz, N.M.D. will evaluate your skin to determine where treatments can be applied most effectively. This quick, in-office service can usually be carried out during the same appointment. BOTOX uses a purified strain of botulinum toxin type A. It works to temporarily "freeze" the muscles that cause wrinkles and creases, allowing the skin to smooth itself back out. We'll insert the formula into the target areas using a small syringe, and most people report only a small pinprick in terms of discomfort. At the end of your appointment, you are free to leave our office and get right back to your normal routine. You might have some mild bruising, swelling, and redness in the treatment areas, but these symptoms likely won't last long.

How many units/injections will I likely need?

The number of BOTOX treatments administered will vary based on individual goals and the depth and severity of your lines and wrinkles. Dr. Ortiz or a member of his team will recommend the ideal number of BOTOX units based on your desired aesthetic results and whether you wish to address the brow area, Crow's feet, or forehead. To maintain your cosmetic results, our team could recommend scheduling BOTOX treatments every 3 – 4 months at Altogether You Med Spa.

Can I have BOTOX other nonsurgical procedures?

BOTOX pairs well with additional noninvasive solutions at Altogether You Med Spa for those who wish to target signs of aging. If you experience deeper and more extensive lines and wrinkles, our practitioners could talk with you about administering a filler for optimal outcomes. To further maximize a younger-looking glow, we may perform additional complementary treatments, like PRP with microneedling or facials.

Are there comparable cosmetic injections?

BOTOX Cosmetic is a certain formulation of wrinkle relaxer that thrives among a myriad of other effective solutions, such as XEOMIN®, Jeuveau®, and Dysport®. These wrinkle-reducing solutions utilize type A botulinum toxin; however, they are each formulated a little differently to address particular issues.

Is there a difference between wrinkle relaxers and fillers?

Though wrinkle relaxers, like BOTOX Cosmetic, are utilized to minimize facial creases by temporarily preventing your muscle engagement, fillers are a separate collection of aesthetic solutions that improve volume in the face. Dermal fillers are designed to plump sunken features and fill in static wrinkles. Dr. Ortiz or one of his experienced team members can ascertain if you could benefit from a dermal filler (like JUVÉDERM® or Restylane®) to further enhance your BOTOX results.

If you're beginning to notice facial wrinkles that are making you feel less confident, BOTOX injections at Altogether You Med Spa may be an excellent noninvasive enhancement solution. BOTOX can relax dynamic wrinkles and lines to enhance your physical appearance. Contact our practice in Phoenix, AZ to set up a consultation with José A.
