Prevent wrinkles, keep your expression. BOTOX is a versatile treatment that can be used for masseter reduction, lip flip, migraine relief, and of course wrinkles!
Botox is a neuromuscular blocking injectable drug, which basically means it stops the transmission of chemicals that tell muscles to move. When you inject Botox directly into facial muscles that cause your face to wrinkle, it allows the skin to flatten out and appear younger.
Through the strategic use of Botox, we’re able to prevent the transition of dynamic lines to static lines. Dynamic lines are those that are visible when you make an exaggerated expression. They can become static or permanent lines over time due to skin breakdown, which is why Botox is so often used preventatively.

Forehead
The most common area that we treat. While your face is relaxed, we address any inset lines or unevenness.
Crow's Feet
These lines can be found on the edges of the eyes near the temples. You'll look like you just had the best sleep of your life.
11s
If you’ve been furrowing your brow for years, you’re probably familiar with these.
Bunny Lines
The fine lines on either side of the nose – usually a result of scrunching your nose excessively.
Brow Lift
We treat the muscles around the brow line for a lifted and refreshed look.
Masseter
We treat along the sides of the jaw for a cosmetic slimming effect. Also reduces teeth grinding.
Lip Flip
Flips the upper lip for a subtly fuller, youthful look. Great for correcting a gummy smile.
Armpit Sweat
Excessive sweating is significantly reduced by treating the armpit.
Chin Dimples
Also known as the mentalis muscle, chin dimples sometimes give a wrinkly look reminiscent of an orange peel.
Shoulder Contouring
Also known as “Trap Tox”, Botox is injected into the trapezius muscle to create an elongated slimmer-looking neck and leaner-looking shoulders.

Frequently Asked Questions
DNA Wellness was born from a vision to combine state-of-the-art wellness services with individualized care.
How does Botox work?
Botox interferes with the nerve stimulation of the muscle causing excess facial expressions. When the muscle relaxes, the line diminishes. Basically, Botox works by paralyzing the muscles underneath the skin.
When will I see results?
Noticeable results should appear around 3 to 5 days. Skin starts to feel tighter; you should see less movement and wrinkling in the injected areas. It can take up to 2 weeks to see the full results. If you have static lines and wrinkles, they may begin to lessen over time and with repeated treatments.
How long do results last?
Everyone’s different, but typically results last around 12 weeks. It depends on the treatment area and your aesthetic goals.
What must I avoid after treatment?
Avoid using any creams and make up for at least 6 to 8 hours. You may wash your face with warm water and soap.
Can Botox be done the same time as other procedures?
Absolutely. Many of our patients come in for Botox, and also have filler done at the same time.
I'm pregnant or nursing, can I be treated with Botox?
We recommend avoiding neuromodulator treatments during pregnancy and while nursing.
