Botox in Las Vegas
Resolve Wrinkles Without Surgery
Discover injectable wrinkle relaxers, including BOTOX® Cosmetic, at Las Vegas Skin Pros, led by board-certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Frank L. Stile. Wrinkle relaxers like BOTOX®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN® work in a similar way, and each has its own FDA-approved uses. They block the nerve signals that tell targeted facial muscles to contract. Those muscles relax, and the expression lines above them look softer.[1]
Our team will build a personalized BOTOX® treatment plan around your concerns. For frown lines, results typically last about three to four months, and you can repeat treatment to keep them going.[2] Your provider can also talk with you about pairing BOTOX® with other options, like dermal filler or a PRP facial, as part of a fuller plan. Contact us today to schedule your consultation.
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic Treatment?
BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) is a prescription medicine injected into specific facial muscles with a fine needle.[2] Before your injections, the doctor or nurse cleanses the treatment sites.
Discomfort is usually mild, often a quick sting, and a topical numbing cream can be applied if you want extra comfort.[1] Our plastic surgeon or experienced nurse injector keeps your comfort and safety front and center through every step.
Treatment Details
What To Know Before BOTOX®
Am I a Good Candidate?
Good candidates for BOTOX® Cosmetic are adults who:
- Have moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, crow’s feet, or forehead lines from repeated facial expressions.[2]
- Aren’t ready for a facelift, or simply prefer a nonsurgical option.
- Want to look rested and refreshed, not frozen.
- Have no known allergy to a botulinum toxin product and no infection where the injections would go.[2]
How Long Does the Treatment Take?
BOTOX® is an outpatient treatment, so you go home the same day.[1] A treatment visit usually takes about 15 to 30 minutes, and in many cases you can be treated the same day as your consultation.
What Results Will I See?
BOTOX® works gradually. Most people notice smoother lines around the third or fourth day, and most see full results within 10 to 14 days.[1] For frown lines, the label puts the effect at about three to four months.[2] Your provider may schedule a follow-up a couple of weeks after your first treatment to check your results.
Is There Any Downtime?
Most people go right back to their normal routine after treatment.[3] Common aftercare advice is to stay upright for three to four hours, avoid rubbing or pressing on the treated areas for 12 hours, and skip physical exertion for 24 hours to help limit redness, swelling, and bruising.[1] Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection sites can happen and usually improves within a day or two.[1]

BOTOX® Questions
What To Know Before You Schedule
Is Botox different from Dysport?
Both are made from botulinum toxin type A, but they are different products with their own FDA labels and approved treatment areas. BOTOX® Cosmetic units can’t be compared to or converted into units of other botulinum toxin products, so a dose of one doesn’t translate to the other.[2] Your provider may recommend one over the other based on your facial movement, treatment area, goals, and how you’ve responded before.
When will I see Botox results?
Most people notice a change around the third or fourth day, and most see full results within 10 to 14 days.[1]
How many Botox units do I need?
It depends on the area, the strength of your muscles, and your goals. As a reference, the label lists 20 units for frown lines, 24 units for crow’s feet (12 per side), and 20 units for forehead lines given together with 20 units for frown lines (40 units total).[2] Your provider sets your dose during your consultation. Learn more in our guide to Botox units for the forehead and crow’s feet.
Can Botox look natural?
It can. Your provider can talk with you about how much movement you want to keep and tailor the dose and injection plan to that, though results vary from person to person.
BOTOX® Cosmetic Guide
Here’s a plain-English look at how BOTOX® Cosmetic works, what it’s approved to treat, what to expect at each step, and how to stay safe.
How Does BOTOX® Cosmetic Work?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is onabotulinumtoxinA, a form of botulinum toxin type A. It blocks the chemical signal a nerve uses to tell a muscle to contract.[2] When the muscles that create frown lines or crow’s feet can’t tighten as hard, the skin over them creases less and the lines look smoother.[1]
The effect is temporary. Within three to six months, it wears off and muscle movement comes back, so lines gradually return unless you treat again.[1]
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic FDA-Approved to Treat?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is approved for adults to temporarily improve the look of:[2]
- Moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Moderate to severe crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes (lateral canthal lines)
- Moderate to severe forehead lines
- Moderate to severe vertical bands that connect the jaw and neck (platysma bands)
Ask your provider which of these areas they treat and which plan fits your goals.
What Happens During a BOTOX® Appointment?
Your visit starts with a consultation. Your provider reviews your health history, watches how your face moves when you frown, squint, and raise your brows, and talks through your goals.
Be ready to share your medications, any muscle or nerve condition, any surgery on your face, and whether you’ve had another botulinum toxin product in the last four months.[4] Once your plan is set, the treatment areas are cleansed and the injections go in with a fine needle. Discomfort is usually mild.[1]
BOTOX® Results Timeline
- Days 1 to 2: For frown lines, the label says the product starts acting on the treated muscles one to two days after injection, though you may not see a change yet.[2]
- Days 3 to 4: Many people start to notice lines softening.[1]
- Days 10 to 14: Full results are typically visible for most people.[1]
- Months 3 to 6: The effect wears off and movement returns.[1] For frown lines, the label puts the effect at about three to four months.[2]
Everyone responds a little differently, so your timeline may vary.
How Often Should You Get BOTOX®?
To keep results going, treatments are generally repeated every three to six months.[1] The safety and effectiveness of BOTOX® Cosmetic given more often than every three months haven’t been studied, so visits are typically spaced at least that far apart.[2]
Your provider will help you find a schedule that fits your goals and your results.
How Much Does BOTOX® Cost in Las Vegas?
The cost of BOTOX® depends mostly on how many units your plan uses, which depends on the areas you treat and how strong those muscles are. Frown lines alone use a different amount than frown lines plus forehead lines.[2]
Be careful comparing wrinkle relaxers by unit price alone. BOTOX® Cosmetic units can’t be compared to or converted into units of other botulinum toxin products.[2] We’ll give you a clear quote at your consultation. Check our current promotions below, and ask about payment plan options.
BOTOX® Aftercare: What To Do and Avoid
- Stay upright, without lying down, for three to four hours.[1]
- Don’t rub or put pressure on the treated areas for 12 hours.[1]
- Skip physical exertion for 24 hours.[1]
- A cool compress, wrapped in a cloth and used for a few minutes at a time, can help with mild redness or swelling.[3]
These steps are mainly about limiting redness, swelling, and bruising.[1] Most people go back to work and their normal plans the same day.[3] Your provider may add instructions based on your treatment.
BOTOX® Side Effects and Safety
Common side effects are usually mild and improve in a day or two. They include pain, redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, and headache.[1] In clinical studies, the most common side effects were eyelid drooping with frown line treatment (3%), eyelid swelling with crow’s feet treatment (1%), and headache (9%) and brow drooping (2%) with forehead line treatment.[2]
BOTOX® Cosmetic has a boxed warning: its effects can spread beyond the injection area hours to weeks after treatment. Get medical help right away if you have symptoms such as trouble swallowing, speaking, or breathing, all-over muscle weakness, double or blurred vision, or drooping eyelids.[2][4] There has not been a confirmed serious case of spread of toxin effect when BOTOX® Cosmetic was used at the recommended dose for frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines, or platysma bands.[4]
Who Should Not Get BOTOX®?
You should not receive BOTOX® Cosmetic if you’re allergic to any of its ingredients or to another botulinum toxin product, or if you have an infection where the injections would go.[2]
Tell your provider if you have a muscle or nerve condition such as ALS, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome, since these can raise the risk of serious side effects.[2] Also tell them if you’re pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding. It isn’t known whether BOTOX® Cosmetic can harm an unborn baby or passes into breast milk.[4] BOTOX® Cosmetic is approved for adults only.[2]
