What Is Botox?
In Orlando, FL

Botox is a neurotoxin that works by targeting one of the primary causes of dynamic wrinkles: repeated facial muscle contractions. When precisely injected, Botox temporarily reduces the nerve signals that cause targeted muscles to contract, helping soften lines created by everyday expressions like smiling, squinting, raising your eyebrows, and frowning. The result is smoother, more refreshed-looking skin while still maintaining natural facial expression.

At Vado Plastic Surgery, our Botox treatments in Orlando can also be customized for much more than wrinkle reduction. Botox may be used to create a subtle brow lift, improve a gummy smile or dimpled chin, slim the jawline, soften neck bands, and reduce excessive underarm sweating. Your treatment is tailored to your unique anatomy, muscle movement, and aesthetic goals.

Botox results develop gradually after your treatment and can vary depending on the treatment area, dosage, and how your body responds. Most patients can expect the following general timeline:

• 3–4 days: You may begin to notice the treated muscles relaxing and lines starting to soften.
• 14 days: Your full Botox results are typically visible.
• 3–4 months: Most patients can expect their Botox results to last around this long.
• Up to 6 months: Some patients may experience longer-lasting results depending on the treatment area and individual response.

As the effects of Botox gradually wear off, muscle movement will return and lines may become more noticeable again. Regular maintenance treatments can help you maintain your results throughout the year.
