MEDICAL AESTHETICS SERVICES & BOTOX TREATMENT NEAR YOU
Botox Injections
Botox is one of the most trusted and effective options for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by facial expressions. By targeting the muscles that cause frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles, Botox helps create a smoother, more polished look that still feels like you, just more refined.
At East Cooper Plastic Surgery, Botox is always performed by licensed medical professionals who understand facial anatomy and aesthetic detail. Whether it’s your first treatment or part of your regular routine, we tailor every session to help you feel confident in your results.

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SCIENCE & BENEFITS OF BOTOX
What to Expect from Botox
Botox is a neuromodulator derived from botulinum toxin type A, which is a highly purified, FDA-approved substance used to temporarily reduce muscle activity in targeted areas. When precisely injected, it relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines, softening the appearance of dynamic wrinkles on the face. Because it treats the root cause of these wrinkles (muscle movement), Botox offers consistent, natural-looking results that improve over time with regular treatment.
Each Botox treatment is quick and minimally invasive. Most patients report only mild discomfort, often comparing the feeling to a quick pinch or sting. Once the injections are complete, you can return to your normal activities right away.
Results don’t appear instantly. Most patients begin to see softening in treated areas within 3 to 5 days, with full effects visible around 7 to 10 days after the procedure. The effects generally last 3 to 4 months, depending on your metabolism, the area treated, and how often you’ve had Botox in the past. Over time, many patients find that wrinkles become less pronounced between treatments, as the skin gets a break from repeated folding and the muscles stay more relaxed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Botox safe?
Yes! Botox is FDA-approved and has a long-standing safety record when administered by trained and licensed professionals. At East Cooper Plastic Surgery, your treatment is performed in a clean and comfortable environment by experienced medical professionals.
Will I still be able to move my face?
Yes! The idea that Botox "freezes" facial expressions comes from cases where too much product was used or where injections weren’t placed with enough precision. When Botox is overdone or performed by someone without advanced training, it can lead to a stiff or unnatural look.
At East Cooper Plastic Surgery, we take a far more refined approach. Our Botox treatments are carefully dosed and strategically placed by experienced medical professionals who understand how your facial muscles work together to create natural expression. Rather than freezing your face, we work to soften movement in just the right places.
