Just What Is BOTOX Cosmetic?
BOTOX Cosmetic is an industry-leading cosmetic injectable that has been used by millions of patients around the globe. The only FDA-approved treatment that temporarily improves the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead lines, BOTOX injections deliver natural-looking results within 24 to 48 hours without any requirement for downtime.
BOTOX achieves its effects through the injection of botulinum toxin, a neurotoxic protein that halts facial muscle contractions, thereby stopping the mechanism that has been causing your wrinkles and fine lines. The results of a single BOTOX appointment can last anywhere from three to six months.
BOTOX Injections Are Quick

When a patient sets an appointment for our Vicksburg team to inject botulinum toxin, they do not have to set aside a big chunk of their day. We can complete the entire procedure in less than 20 minutes.

- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Lip shape
- Lip size
- Cheek volume
- Under-eye hollows
- Facial definition
- Aging hands

These Injectables Are Ideal For Many Patients But May Not Be Suitable for Certain Candidates
Our injectables are an amazing option for Vicksburg patients who are seeking cosmetic enhancements without resorting to plastic surgery. However, these treatments are not recommended for people who are under 18 years of age or who are pregnant/nursing. Generally speaking, more patients qualify for JUVÉDERM than BOTOX. Dr. Measells is ready to help you find the right solution for your needs.
Is BOTOX Safe?
Yes. As with any medical procedure, injectables and dermal fillers do carry the risk of some side effects, but they are typically very mild. Seeing a trained injector like Dr. Measells goes far to minimize your chance of side effects.
When it comes to BOTOX, some patients experience effects like redness, dryness, or swelling or bruising at the injection site. While quite rare, it is possible to be allergic to botulinum toxin. Side effects can include muscle weakness, extended swelling and redness, and flu-like symptoms.
If you do have a botulinum toxin allergy, we may be able to achieve all the cosmetic enhancements you desire and avoid certain side effects with JUVÉDERM products instead of BOTOX.
