What it is

Botox is a purified botulinum toxin type A injected in small doses to temporarily relax the muscles that create expression lines. It is the most requested aesthetic treatment in the Bay Area and takes about ten minutes to administer.

Benefits

  • Softens forehead lines, frown lines, and crow's feet
  • Prevents new static wrinkles when started early
  • No downtime — most patients return to work immediately
  • Also treats jaw clenching, gummy smile, and excessive sweating

Cost

Across the Bay Area, botox runs $11–$20 per unit. Peninsula cities like Palo Alto and Los Gatos sit at the upper end, while Fremont and San Jose are generally the most competitive.

Recovery

None. Avoid lying flat, exercising, or massaging the area for four hours. Full results appear in 7–14 days and last three to four months.

Risks

  • Temporary bruising or pinpoint swelling at injection sites
  • Mild headache in the first 24 hours
  • Rare eyelid or brow heaviness that resolves in a few weeks
