So you’re still confused over getting Botox? Ask yourself the following:

Am I fairly in good health?

Despite its minimally-invasive nature, a Botox injection is still a medical procedure. And like all medical procedures, some are good candidates while others may need to make certain health improvements and wait for a definite period of time before taking the plunge. Individuals who may be taking certain prescriptions or undergoing treatments may not be eligible for the wrinkle-busting injectable. The existence of neuromuscular disorders may also affect Botox outcomes. You may be advised to completely treat pre-existing conditions. Dr. Tresley will perform a thorough assessment to determine your current health status before Botox.

What exactly are my goals in having Botox?

Your expectations and goals in getting Botox should be clear in the first place. You can talk to Dr. Tresley about your own goals and check if it’s align with the procedure’s objectives. Sometimes, one’s physical appearance goals may be suited for another cosmetic procedure.

What are my expectations during and after the procedure?

Apart from having specific goals for getting Botox, you should be able to relay to Dr. Tresley your expectations during and after the procedure. The procedure itself will take you around 15 minutes or does not require any anesthetic agent. Numbing creams may be applied to the injected area.
