Question 2

HOW MUCH RESEARCH HAS GONE INTO BOTOX®?

Accepted Answer

When you choose  BOTOX®, you can trust in its established track record. Backed by over 16 years of published studies,  BOTOX®is the most widely researched and studied treatment of its kind, approved for use in 95 countries. The safety and efficacy of  BOTOX® have been described in more than 528 peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals.

Question 3

How does Botox® work?

Accepted Answer

BOTOX® targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines — the repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, smiling and raising the eyebrows over the years. Your specialist will inject these muscles with BOTOX® to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice your frown lines between your brows, your crow’s feet lines and your forehead lines temporarily look better.

Question 4

IS THERE A SUBSTITUTE FOR BOTOX®?

Accepted Answer

BOTOX® is a biologic product that cannot be interchanged – or substituted – for another
product. In fact, the FDA has stated BOTOX® is “non-interchangeable,” which means that its safety and effectiveness cannot be claimed by any other product. The potency – or strength – of BOTOX® is measured in scientifically defined units that cannot be compared to any other product, due to our unique manufacturing process. There are no substitutes for our product. 
People who are prescribed a biologic product have a right to know exactly what they are receiving. Be sure to ask which product you are being prescribed and why.

Question 5

WILL MY FACE LOOK OVERDONE OR UNNATURAL?

Accepted Answer

BOTOX® is a technique-sensitive treatment. You can trust BOTOX® to deliver subtle results when you are treated by someone who is licensed, trained, and a medical expert in facial anatomy. So you’ll look like yourself—only with less noticeable lines. No one should be able to tell you’ve had anything done.

Question 6

HOW CAN I SAVE ON BOTOX®?

Accepted Answer

Be wary of discount products or “cheap” BOTOX® – if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Your cost of BOTOX® not only includes the price of the product, but more importantly, the skill and expertise of the specialist or healthcare professional who is administering your treatment.

Question 7

IS BOTOX® COSMETIC ONLY FOR WOMEN?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! Many men make BOTOX® part of what they do to care for their appearance.
The number of men choosing treatments like BOTOX® has risen fast – in the past three years alone, men have received over one million botulinum toxin treatments. When surveyed, the majority of men say they want to look good and they’re bothered by the changes they see in the mirror. 80% would choose to treat their crow’s feet first, while 74% would prioritize their forehead lines, and 60% would most like to treat their frown lines.†
*Results from a survey of men to determine most likely treatment areas and top areas of concern for injectable-naive, 
aesthetically-oriented men aged 30 to 65 years (N=600). Proportion of respondents selecting that area as highest priority to treat using the Maximum Difference (MaxDiff) scaling system.

Question 8

DO I NEED TO BE OVER 40 TO START USING BOTOX®?

Accepted Answer

It's not your age that determines when BOTOX® is right for you, it's the severity of your lines. In fact, 64% of plastic surgeons report seeing a rise in cosmetic surgery or injectable treatments for patients in their early 30’s.
The truth is, everyone's lines form differently. The timing can be influenced by a combination of factors, from cellular changes that may occur over time, to reduction of collagen, to genetic factors, or damage caused by free radicals from the sun and the environment.
Whenever your lines start to bother you, go speak with your doctor. They can help you determine if treatment is right for you.

Question 9

HOW MUCH TIME DOES BOTOX® TREATMENT TAKE? WILL IT HURT?

Accepted Answer

Your specialist will discuss your treatment goals and perform a facial analysis to determine the appropriate treatment areas for you. If the HCP deems you to be an appropriate candidate, the injection may take place on that same day. Some patients report that being injected with BOTOX® feels like a pinch. Your specialist may use ice to numb the treatment area. Or, if you are concerned about discomfort, your specialist may apply a topical numbing cream before administering your treatment.
Treatment requires minimal downtime. So you can return to your daily routine immediately after you leave your specialist’s office.

Question 10

WILL I SEE RESULTS QUICKLY? HOW LONG DOES BOTOX® LAST?

Accepted Answer

You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with full results in 30 days, with results lasting up to four months for moderate to severe frown lines. Remember that results vary from patient to patient though, so your physician will plan your next appointment based on your results and aesthetic goals.

Question 11

HOW LONG IS THE RECOVERY TIME AFTER TREATMENT?

Accepted Answer

Treatment requires minimal downtime. So you can return to your daily routine immediately after you leave your specialist’s office.

Question 12

HOW MANY INJECTIONS WILL I RECEIVE?

Accepted Answer

Treatment with BOTOX® is customized to your goals and needs. When you meet with your specialist, he or she will determine the appropriate treatment for any areas you wish to address, including moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines. Remember, only BOTOX® is approved to treat all three of these areas. 
For the crow’s feet area, your specialist will inject 3 areas of the muscle that frames the side of the eye. This will be repeated on the muscle that frames the other eye. 
For the frown lines area, your specialist will administer 5 injections into the muscles between your brows and in your forehead. 
For the forehead lines area, your specialist will administer 5 injections into a muscle in your forehead.

Question 13

WHAT WERE COMMON SIDE EFFECTS SEEN IN CLINICAL STUDIES?

Accepted Answer

Three percent of patients experienced eyelid drooping in the frown lines studies, one percent of patients experienced eyelid swelling in the crow's feet studies, and one percent of patients experienced brow drooping in the forehead lines studies. Other possible side effects include: dry mouth; discomfort or pain at the injection site; tiredness; headache; neck pain; eye problems: double vision, blurred vision, decreased eyesight and dry eyes; and allergic reactions. These are not all of the possible serious side effects of BOTOX®.

Question 14

IS THERE A “GENERIC” BOTOX®?

Accepted Answer

There is no such thing as a “generic” form of BOTOX® . Be wary of discount products or “cheap” BOTOX®. Medical formulations, potency, and approved doses vary among products, so no one product can take the place of another. FDA labeling states that BOTOX® is not interchangeable with any other product. If it doesn’t say BOTOX® on the vial, then it isn’t BOTOX®.
BOTOX® has a one-of-a-kind formulation. And BOTOX® is the most widely researched and studied treatment of its kind. Backed by more than 16 years of published studies, the safety and efficacy of BOTOX® have been described in 528 peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals.
Finally, Allergan, the maker of BOTOX®, owns the entire manufacturing and packaging process, which helps ensure the reliability and safety of each vial.
