Botox in Scottsdale

Botox in Scottsdale is a non-surgical, dermal injectable option to decrease facial wrinkles by weakening the muscles that cause the wrinkles. All injections of Botox are performed by Dr. Stutman himself.

Most patients experience very little if any downtime after Botox treatment. Occasionally, you will have bruising at the injection sites for a few days, this can usually be covered with minimal makeup. These injections, also known as botulinum toxin, fight a tired, aging appearance and restore life to your face. Botox is FDA approved for treating frown lines and crow’s feet and is used off-label to treat many other minor facial lines.

The BOTOX® Process Explained

Botox injections involve the cosmetic form of botulinum toxin. These injections block nerve signals from reaching the muscles at the injection site, preventing the corresponding muscle contractions responsible for frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead furrows, and other small facial lines and wrinkles.

Botox injection therapy is complex and highly individualized. The procedure involves personalized treatment plans and injection strategies to target the right muscles. Dr. Stutman will modify your Botox treatment to meet your needs for the best results. He can assess the goals of Scottsdale patients during an initial consultation.

Considerations for BOTOX®

Botox injections do not require anesthesia; there is no downtime or recovery time after the injections. You can immediately resume your normal activities after your treatment session. However, you should take care not to rub or massage your injection sites, as this may cause the injected materials to spread to non-targeted areas of the face. If this happens, you may notice temporary facial weakness or drooping.

Can You Combine BOTOX® With Other Procedures?

Botox injections can be combined with other non-surgical skin procedures for more compelling results. For example, you can pursue Botox along with injectables, laser treatments, microdermabrasion, or a chemical peel to restore life to damaged skin and prevent new wrinkles from forming.

Risks Associated With BOTOX®

No surgical or medical procedure is without risks. People in the Scottsdale area interested in Botox or a similar cosmetic procedure need to meet with an expert and review details regarding treatment. During your initial consultation, Dr. Stutman or one of his team members would be happy to review any relevant considerations, risks, or complications associated with Botox.

How Long Do BOTOX® Results Last?

Prospective Botox patients must understand that the results of these treatments do not last forever. Instead, injections usually last three to six months, depending on the patient. Some people might notice their enhancements for six months, while others might see their results fade after two months.

Fortunately, you can maintain the results of your Botox injections by coming in for follow-up treatment. Dr. Stutman can monitor your progress and help you determine when additional sessions are necessary.
