Botox
Age comes with wisdom, amazing life experiences, and wonderful memories, but it can also carry some unwanted baggage. Gravity, lifestyle, and environmental conditions will cause our skin to sag, wrinkle, and loosen, giving our bodies and face an older appearance that some people aren’t quite ready for. Christopher Manios, MD offers his Danville, Blackhawk, and San Ramon, CA patients the opportunity to set back the clock a bit to regain a firmer and more youthful look with BOTOX.

Through years of experience, Dr. Manios has found that facial aesthetics, including treatments such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and dermal fillers, intertwines the sciences with the arts. He believes an injector should have both an artist’s eye and a doctor’s trained touch to create the best results. This is the balance he strives to provide to each of his patients.

What is Botox?
BOTOX is a minimally invasive treatment that can produce stunning results with just one treatment. This FDA-approved injectable utilizes the neurotoxic protein onabotulinumtoxinA which temporarily paralyzes your muscle activity in the treated area, preventing the chemical acetylcholine from releasing into your muscles. This helps prevent muscle spasms and lessens the appearance that certain muscle movements would create in the future.
BOTOX has also been used to treat other conditions such as excessive sweating (Hyperhidrosis) in the underarms, hands, and feet by blocking the nerve fibers that control sweat glands. In some cases, BOTOX has also helped patients suffering from severe migraines by entering the nerve endings and preventing activation of the pain networks in the brain.

What to Expect on the Day of BOTOX
The BOTOX treatment is very fast and effective. When you are ready to begin your treatment, we will have you make yourself comfortable and apply local numbing anesthesia to make your experience more tolerable. Dr. Manios will administer a series of injections to some pre-selected areas that contain more fine lines and wrinkles. You will feel the pinch of the needle, but the anesthetic should make it completely bearable.
*The entire treatment will take between 15 and 30 minutes.
At the end of your session, we may have you stay at our office for about 10 – 15 minutes to ensure you don’t have any allergic reactions to the toxin. When you seem to be OK, you will be free to continue your daily routine. We will provide you with a list of instructions that will help you make the most out of your BOTOX treatment, as well as have a healthy recovery.
