Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions we receive about Botox treatment:
Is Botox Right for Me?
When you come to Wilmington Dermatology Center, we’ll sit down with you during your consultation and evaluate which areas of your face need treatment, based on your aesthetic concerns and goals. We have a variety of cosmetic treatments available, and we’ll help you decide if Botox is right for you.
How Long Does Botox Last?
Patients typically start to see results within the first 5-7 days, with full correction occurring in about 14 days. After that, how long your Botox will last will vary by individual. The average amount of time Botox will last is therefore about three to four months.
Does it Matter Who Does My Botox?
Although some may disagree, we at Wilmington Dermatology feel that Botox should only be administered by an expert: a highly trained specialist who is familiar with facial anatomy, proper techniques, and medical conditions that could prevent you from achieving your best possible results.
We find that many patients are wary of Botox because they’re afraid to look “frozen” or they have seen or experienced unnatural-looking results in the past. We’re also known for fixing other practitioners’ overdone outcomes, to give our patients the results they deserve.
