Treating the frown line with Botox is a straightforward and quick process. The entire procedure, which involves administering the injections, typically takes between 5 to 10 minutes.

Concerned About Pain?

At Coonen Clinic, we prioritize your comfort and strive to make the experience as pain-free as possible. We utilize only the highest-quality products and the finest needles, minimizing any discomfort you might feel. While most clients do feel the injections, they report minimal disturbance from the procedure.

Typically, your skin will look unchanged immediately after your Botox treatment. In some instances, you might notice a minor redness or a small bump where the injections were given. Should a bruise develop, it’s best to keep the area out of the sun until it completely heals.

The journey of Botox from treatment to visible results unfolds over a short period. Typically, it takes about 3 to 4 days for the botulinum toxin to target the right area. Once it does, it prevents the nerves from producing acetylcholine—a chemical that triggers muscle contraction. This is when you’ll start noticing the initial effects: your skin begins to look smoother as the muscles beneath can no longer contract, making wrinkles less noticeable or even causing them to vanish. The peak effect of Botox is observed around 2 weeks after the treatment.

For those who opt for repeated Botox treatments, you’ll find that the results not only appear faster but also last longer. However, it’s important to maintain a consistent treatment schedule without long intervals, to ensure the enduring effectiveness of the procedure.

Duration of Benefits

The effects of Botox typically last for about 3 to 4 months. However, the exact duration can vary widely from person to person, making it challenging to predict precisely how long the benefits will last for each individual. After this period, the Botox gradually fades from the body, allowing the treated muscle to begin contracting again. At this point, you may consider scheduling a new treatment.

For those who have received Botox treatments previously, you may notice that subsequent treatments take effect more quickly and the results last longer. This enhanced response is a common experience among repeat Botox users.
