Botox

Botox is an FDA-approved injectable that relaxes the small facial muscles responsible for expression lines, softening forehead lines, frown lines (the “11s” between the brows), and crow’s feet in about 10 minutes, with visible results in 3 to 7 days and no downtime. At Genesis Dermatology in Jupiter, FL, Botox is administered by board-certified providers trained to deliver a natural, refreshed look rather than a frozen one.

What Is Botox?

Botox (onabotulinumtoxinA) is a purified protein that temporarily blocks nerve signals to targeted muscles. When a muscle can no longer contract at full strength, the skin above it stops folding into a line every time you frown, squint, or raise your eyebrows. Over weeks, existing lines soften and new ones are prevented from deepening.

It’s one of the most studied cosmetic treatments in the world and has been used safely for both medical and cosmetic purposes for decades.

What Areas Can Botox Treat?

Forehead lines (horizontal lines across the brow)

Frown lines / glabellar lines (vertical "11s" between the eyebrows)

Crow's feet (lines that fan out from the outer corners of the eyes)

Bunny lines on the nose, lip lines, and a subtle "lip flip"

Neck bands and jawline slimming (masseter reduction) in select patients

Am I a Good Candidate for Botox?

Most healthy adults who are bothered by expression lines are candidates. Botox works best on lines caused by muscle movement (dynamic lines) rather than lines that are already etched into the skin at rest, though treating dynamic lines early can prevent static lines from forming.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

A Botox visit at our Jupiter office starts with a short consultation to map your facial movement and discuss goals. Treatment itself involves a series of small injections with a very fine needle.

01

No anesthesia is typically needed; some patients ice the area beforehand

02

The appointment takes about 10-15 minutes

03

Mild redness or small bumps at injection sites resolve within an hour

04

You can return to normal activities immediately

Results and How Long Botox Lasts

Results typically begin to appear within 3 to 5 days and reach their full effect by day 10 to 14. Most patients enjoy smoother skin for 3 to 4 months before muscle activity gradually returns, at which point a follow-up treatment maintains results. Patients who treat consistently over time often find they need less product to achieve the same effect.
