What We Treat

Botox in Sharjah, Ajman, and Umm Al Quwain

Overview

Botox injections are commonly used to reduce facial lines and wrinkles, including frown lines, crow’s feet (lines around the eyes), and forehead wrinkles. However, it can also help treat various health problems, including migraine prevention, excessive sweating, overactive bladder, misaligned eyes, uncontrollable blinking, and neck and shoulder muscle contractions.

How does Botox work?

Botox can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and enhance your complexion by preventing the contraction of specific facial muscles that cause the skin around the eyes, lips, and forehead to wrinkle.

Botox injections offer many advantages, including:

  • Safe, FDA-approved injectable.
  • Quick procedure with no downtime.
  • Immediate, natural-looking results.
  • Restores youthful appearance.
  • Improves self-confidence.

 

Am I a suitable candidate for a Botox injection?

Botox injection may be suitable for you if you want to get rid of fine lines and wrinkles and are looking for a non-invasive treatment with instant results. You may not be suitable for Botox if you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or have a neurological condition (such as muscular neuropathy).

Are there any preparations needed before Botox injection?

During your consultation, our dermatologist will go over your medical history and examine your skin to ensure injecting Botox is suitable for you. You will need to inform them if you are currently taking any medications or have had any Botox injections in the past couple of months.

The doctor may recommend you stop smoking and take blood-thinning medications before your treatment. If they determine that you can receive Botox injections without preparation, you may start the treatment right after the initial appointment.

What happens during the Botox injection procedure?

Botox injection doesn’t take more than 15 minutes, and you can resume your daily activities right after the treatment. On the day of your visit, you should avoid wearing makeup because the dermatologist will clean your skin before injecting Botox.

To minimize discomfort during the procedure, the doctor will apply a numbing cream then use a thin needle to inject small amounts of Botox into the treatment area. Several injections may be given to you in various locations, depending on the problem being treated. After the injection, the treated area will be massaged gently, and ice packs may be used to soothe any discomfort.

Following the procedure, you might have minor discomfort and redness at the injection sites, but you can manage these side effects with ice packs and painkillers. Although there is no recovery period following a Botox injection, it is advised that you rest for 24 hours before engaging in strenuous activities. Additionally, you should refrain from rubbing or massaging the treated area to allow the solution to absorb and provide the intended result adequately.

How long does the result last?

Since Botox is a personalized cosmetic procedure, every patient’s outcome will be unique. After treatment, you will achieve a smoother, wrinkle-free face with effects lasting at least 3 to 4 months. Most people notice the results of Botox injection three to four days after the procedure. Within 10 to 14 days, full result will become apparent. Regular treatment sessions are usually advised to maintain the results and guarantee that you always look your best.
