BOTOX® (onabotulinumtoxinA) is a versatile and minimally invasive treatment designed to help you achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance. At Riverside Holistic Dentistry, we offer BOTOX to address cosmetic concerns such as frown lines, crow’s feet and other facial wrinkles. By relaxing the underlying muscles responsible for creating these lines, BOTOX can enhance your natural beauty, leaving you looking refreshed and rejuvenated.
Cosmetic BOTOX Treatment
In addition to its cosmetic benefits, BOTOX is known for its ability to address various medical concerns. It can be used to manage symptoms of TMJ disorders, providing relief from jaw pain and tension. BOTOX may also be an effective option for alleviating chronic migraines or reducing excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). Our dentist will assess your individual needs and discuss how BOTOX can benefit your overall wellbeing.
One of the many advantages of BOTOX is that the procedure is quick and virtually painless. The treatment involves injecting a small amount of the medication into targeted areas of the face. For your comfort, we may use a topical numbing cream or ice before the procedure. Most patients find the treatment to be well-tolerated and appreciate its convenience. You can resume your regular activities immediately following your appointment, making it an excellent option for those with busy schedules.
You may start to notice the effects of BOTOX within 24 to 48 hours after your treatment, with full results typically visible within a week. The results can last up to four months, depending on individual factors. Regular maintenance appointments can help you enjoy the benefits of BOTOX over the long term.
Whether you are seeking to reduce the appearance of wrinkles or explore additional therapeutic benefits, BOTOX offers a safe and effective solution tailored to your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does BOTOX work to improve wrinkles?
BOTOX works by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for forming dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. When these muscles are unable to contract, the overlying skin smooths out, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The effects gradually fade, allowing for repeat treatments as desired.
Is BOTOX treatment safe?
Yes, BOTOX is FDA-approved for both cosmetic and therapeutic uses. It has been extensively studied and used for decades by medical professionals. When administered by a trained provider, such as our dentist and team, BOTOX is a safe and effective treatment with minimal risks and a high level of patient satisfaction.
How long does a BOTOX appointment take?
A typical BOTOX appointment is quick and convenient, often lasting about 10 to 15 minutes. After your consultation, the actual injections require only a few moments, making this treatment ideal for fitting into a busy schedule. You can return to your daily activities immediately after the procedure.
Will BOTOX make my face look frozen?
When administered properly, BOTOX enhances your appearance without compromising natural facial expressions. Our trained providers use precise techniques to achieve subtle, balanced results. You will maintain your ability to express emotions while enjoying smoother, more youthful skin. A consultation allows us to understand your goals and create a tailored treatment plan.
