Botox Injections for Wrinkle Reduction
What is Botox?
Botox is a FDA-approved, non-surgical treatment that smooths facial wrinkles by temporarily relaxing muscles. This purified protein, derived from botulinum toxin, blocks nerve signals that cause muscle contractions, softening fine lines and deep wrinkles for a younger, refreshed look.
Botox Can Help Reduce
- Forehead wrinkles & frown lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Lip lines & chin dimples
- Neck bands & excessive sweating
FAQs
Is BOTOX painful?
With topical anesthetic, it can be virtually painless. Even without a numbing agent, pain is minimal, and you may only feel a little pinch. Injections are very quick and with a trained medical professional, you may not even notice when they happen.
What happens during the visit?
No prior preparation is needed for Botox injections. Your physician will go over your medical history, examine your face, determine how much Botox you will need and explain the procedure and answer any questions you may have. Your face is cleansed, and Botox is injected with a very fine needle into specified areas. The procedure typically lasts 10-20 minutes. In most cases, you can leave right after the procedure. We may use a topical anesthetic or cold pack to reduce any discomfort.
What precautions do I need to follow after the procedure?
You are advised not to rub or massage your face for 24 hours, to avoid the toxin spreading to other unintended areas.
How much does Botox cost?
The price varies based on the product you use and ongoing promotions on Botox. Our introductory price for Botox is $10/unit.
How many units of Botox do I need?
The number of Botox units for specified areas can vary based on your facial muscles, gender, areas needed to treat, and prior treatments.
How Long does the Botox effect last?
It typically takes 3-14 days for a full effect up to a maximum of 30 days from Botox injections. The Botox effect lasts typically 3 months, but results can vary.
Are there any adverse effects of Botox?
Botox complications have most often been associated with non-cosmetic treatments and unqualified practitioners. Possible side effects include headache, nausea, flu-like symptoms, redness or pain at the injection site, and droopy eyelids. The risk of any complication is extremely low with a trained provider such as Dr. Bassi.
Dermal Fillers for Volume & Contouring
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers restore lost facial volume, smooth deep wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They contain hyaluronic acid (HA), calcium hydroxylapatite, or poly-L-lactic acid, which naturally integrate with the skin for a plump, youthful appearance.
How Dermal Fillers Can Help:
- Smooth smile lines & marionette lines
- Restore volume to cheeks & temples
- Enhance lips & define jawline
- Improve lower eyelid hollows
- Correct chin creases & facial asymmetry
FAQs

How long do results last?
Typically, 6-12 months with HA fillers, 12 months with CaHA fillers, and up to two years with Poly-L-lactic acid.
What happens during the visit?
Dermal filler injections are non-surgical and typically completed during an office visit. Your initial treatment will begin with a consultation, during which you will meet with your doctor to discuss your concerns and goals.
What are the dangers of dermal fillers?
Most dermal fillers are safe and effective in the right hands when used judiciously. Adverse effects may occur. Each of these substances has its unique density, longevity, and texture, which, injected into a specific area of the face, achieves the desired result.
We recommend you avoid unsafe black-market products and unqualified providers.
One of the main benefits of HA fillers, aside from their natural appearance when injected, is that a unique solution can dissolve them in case of an adverse event or if the person dislikes the appearance. Also, most HA fillers are premixed with lidocaine, a numbing agent, to maximize comfort during treatment.
Adverse effects include:
- Bruising and swelling after the procedure
- Allergic reactions: rash/itching
- Infections
- Death of skin cells at the injection site (necrosis and ulceration)
- Blood clot causing blindness (if injected close to the eye)
- Bleeding from the injection site
- Skin damage and scarring
- Asymmetry of face
- Lumps under skin
- Under and over correction of wrinkles
