BOTOX® in Fredericksburg, VA

What Is BOTOX?

Every time you look at your face in a mirror, are you concerned about wrinkles and creases on your brow and around your eyes? Known as dynamic wrinkles, these skin issues occur due to repeated facial movements, like frowning, smiling, and squinting. As people become more mature, these lines ultimately become more pronounced and can make them appear less youthful. Thanks to BOTOX Cosmetic, we can often temporarily minimize the development of moderate to severe frown lines, Crow's feet, and forehead creases. BOTOX is a specialized type A strain of botulinum toxin. It works to temporarily block the muscles that cause those contractions, letting the overlying skin recover on its own. At Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg, plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki are pleased to offer BOTOX injections as a minimally invasive solution to help patients attain a smoother, refreshed result. We invite you to call our office in Fredericksburg, VA for more information about BOTOX Cosmetic.

How Does BOTOX Work?

During your first treatment consultation at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg, a cosmetic assessment will be performed to decide which areas require treatment. Since BOTOX is performed during a fast, outpatient service, your injections can commonly be administered in the same visit. The formula will be injected into the specified areas of your forehead or upper face using a fine-gauge needle. BOTOX treatment takes about ten minutes to carry out, and most people notice only minor discomfort (such as a pinprick or pinching feeling). Following your visit, you are welcome to leave our facility and go about your day.

What Are The Benefits Of BOTOX?

Fine lines and facial folds can distract from our better attributes and make us appear older than we are. BOTOX is a good choice for helping you attain a more youthful, polished aesthetic. Although the results are not permanent, you will reap the benefits for several months before needing a follow-up treatment. Patients may also get added benefits from BOTOX at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg, such as:

  • Minimal discomfort: BOTOX injections employ a very small needle, making treatments seem like a small pinch of the skin.
  • Rapid treatment sessions: The BOTOX procedures may take as little as ten minutes.
  • Very little rest or rehab: Due to the minimally invasive qualities, you can resume your everyday schedule following treatment.
  • Easy maintenance: Patients who wish to maintain their results semi-permanently will notice that follow-up treatment appointments are brief and realistic for everyday schedules.

This is the first time that I have posted a review for any service, and I feel honored to provide feedback for this facility, and most specifically for my surgeon, Dr. Howard Heppe. He is absolutely extraordinary. His willingness to listen, and provide advice and guidance was deeply appreciated. He is a master at his art, a brilliant surgeon who literally changed my life. He performed a breast lift, tummy tuck, and a procedure on my eyes which removed lifelong bags and dark circles from my face. Amazing. The support staff and nurses were exceptional, cheerful, kind, and emotionally supportive. I am truly grateful for all of their extreme care and attentiveness. Again, Dr. Heppe is in a league of his own. His ability to craft and mold and enhance the human body is so impressive and he exceeded all of my expectations. I highly recommend him/them to anyone who is ready to take the next step in enhancing their natural beauty and correcting areas of sensitivity. Amazing.

I am so pleased to share my enormous respect and admiration for Dr. Heppe and every one of the staff members at this medical facility. I was there to care for my friend having surgery. Not only was she treated compassionately and professionally during the entire experience, I was surprised that I, too, was given the same courtesy as her care partner. The appointments were on time, thorough, and informative. We were prepared with important information and immediate responses to any potential concerns we raised. When my friend experienced a difficulty, Dr. Heppe went beyond all expectations to assist her promptly and appropriately. We were reassured and comforted to know that every patient is treated "as the center of attention." I highly recommend the services of this extraordinary medical facility. We offer our highest gratitude for the way every one on the staff kindly contributed to make this time so amazing.

How many BOTOX injections will i need?

The number of BOTOX treatments provided will differ based on individual concerns and the extent of your wrinkles. Dr. Heppe can determine the appropriate number of BOTOX units according to your targeted treatment outcomes and whether you want to address the forehead, Crow's feet, or between the eyes. To keep up with your cosmetic results, our practitioners might recommend receiving BOTOX procedures every few months at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg.

Can BOTOX be paired with additional aesthetic procedures?

BOTOX treatment often pairs well with other aesthetic solutions at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg for individuals who prefer to address aging concerns. If you notice more extensive and pronounced facial wrinkles and lines, our team might suggest adding a filler for maximum outcomes. To further maximize your youthful, radiant appearance, Dr. Heppe might discuss additional complementary treatments, like skin resurfacing or dermal fillers.

Is there a difference between fillers and wrinkle relaxers?

Although wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX, are used to diminish fine lines by temporarily freezing your muscle engagement, fillers are a distinct category of cosmetic injections that improve volume in the face. Dermal fillers are intended to volumize gaunt-looking features and fill in static wrinkles. Dr. Heppe can ascertain if you would benefit from a filler (such as JUVÉDERM® or Restylane®) to further enhance your BOTOX results.
