Looking for Botox in Richmond? You’re in the right place. Smooth facial folds, soften wrinkles, and relax frown lines to reveal a refreshed, youthful look that reflects how vibrant you truly feel.

Lines and wrinkles are caused by the repeated muscle contractions of everyday actions, like frowning and squinting. As we age, we lose elasticity in our skin, so the skin can no longer bounce back after each repeated movement. Each minute movement leaves behind an accumulation of folds or creases that, over time, leave you looking older than you’d like. Injectable Botox® or Dysport® treatments temporarily reduce muscle activity, resulting in a visible smoothing of your facial lines and wrinkles and even preventing the formation of new wrinkles!* Call (804) 285-8578 to learn more or to schedule your appointment for Botox in Virginia. You can also request your injectables visit online.

Your Complete Guide to Botox Virginia

Are you considering a new treatment to enhance your appearance? Botox has been one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the U.S. for over 20 years. Botox injections are a highly effective way to reduce or eliminate facial wrinkles and achieve younger, smoother, natural-looking skin. Let’s learn a little more about Botox before you make plans to get it done.

What is Botox?

Botox is a specialized and highly refined FDA-approved cosmetic neuromodulator. When injected into the facial and cervical (neck) muscles, Botox causes these muscles to become temporarily relaxed by blocking certain signals sent from the central nervous system to the muscles.

How does it work?

You’ve been contracting your facial muscles since you were a baby. Over many years, the repetitive bunching of the skin that expressions create contributes to the formation of permanent wrinkles and lines on your skin. By relaxing these muscles and preventing them from contracting or helping them to contract less, your facial skin can appear smoother and younger. Another very helpful use of Botox is its ability to adjust the position of the eyebrow, leading to an enhance appearance of the eyes and eyelids. Doing this properly requires an artistic eye and injecting skill on the part of the provider.

What does Botox treat?

Botox can be used to treat facial wrinkles and fine lines on your forehead, frown lines between your eyebrows, and crow’s feet lines near your eyes, as well as some neck lines. When used properly Botox can create a more symmetrical, positive, and youthful appearance.

Why have a facial plastic surgeon perform my Botox?

With so many choices available, many patients prefer to have their Botox done in a doctor’s office by a facial plastic surgeon or specially trained members of his staff. The advantage is that the surgeon has actually seen the anatomy under the skin and worked with it for years, giving a very specific and important understanding of what is being treated. Doctor Godin stands behind and/or performs every treatment done in his practice.

What is the Botox procedure like?

The Botox procedure is nothing more than a series of tiny injections in the face and sometimes neck. The doctor will use a fine needle to inject areas of the face where it will produce the most benefit. Most patients report that the procedure stings a little or is practically painless. For this reason, a local anesthetic is generally not required. The doctor will know precisely where to make the injections on your face. You will receive a comprehensive examination and evaluation before the procedure to pinpoint the best locations for the injections. The entire procedure, from start to finish, should take about 15 minutes, depending on the number of injections needed.

How long will it take for my results to show?

See the Results: Before & After Botox

The earliest results will become apparent within three days, while the full results typically take around 14 days. The results usually last 3 to 4 months, although some patients get a longer effect and a very small amount have a shorter one. A touch-up treatment is given as a booster if necessarily and there is usually no charge for it. You will be happy to know that there is no recovery time needed after receiving the Botox injections. Although you may experience some minor swelling and soreness at the injection sites, these effects dissipate quickly. At the end of your treatment, you’ll be given a reusable “signature” cold compress to take with you to reduce the chances of bruising. Bruising is usually minimal or nonexistent and can be easily covered with makeup. Rarely, a patient will get a significant bruise; this is often caused by their taking blood-thinning medications or supplements. It is a good idea to minimize these to the extent your medical condition allows before having the treatment.

How do you price your Botox treatments?
