The smallest useful dose, placed by hand.

Good Botox is the kind nobody can place. You look rested, slept-well, less drawn — and the friend who sees you weekly cannot quite say what you did.

Botulinum toxin Type A blocks the chemical signal between nerve and muscle. Treated in small, hand-placed doses it softens the muscles that crease skin — across the brow, between the eyes, around the eyes — while leaving expression intact below. The skin gets a chance to settle.

Every treatment plan is written for the face in front of us. We mark the muscles to be treated, draw out a unit map on paper, and walk through it before the first needle is laid. No surprises. No upselling mid-session.

Six regions, thoughtfully dosed.

Ask the practice →
Will I look frozen?+
No. We dose conservatively — micro-droplet placement targets the muscle pulling the line, while leaving the surrounding fibres free to move. You will still raise an eyebrow, still smile, still look like yourself. If anything, friends will guess you slept well.
How long before I see results?+
Most people notice a softening at day three to five, with full effect settling by day fourteen. We review you in clinic at two weeks and adjust if needed — most don't need anything.
Does it hurt?+
Mostly a series of pinches. We use a fine 30-gauge needle, ice before and after, and a numbing cream when the area is sensitive. The whole session takes about fifteen minutes once mapped.
When should I start?+
When the line bothers you at rest, not when a magazine says so. Many patients begin in their early thirties to prevent habit lines from etching in; others wait until forty. Both are reasonable.
What's the downtime?+
None to speak of. Tiny needle marks resolve in under an hour. You can return to work immediately. Avoid lying flat, heavy exercise, and facials for the rest of the day.
Is it safe long-term?+
Botulinum toxin Type A has been studied for over three decades in cosmetic use, with an excellent safety profile when dosed and placed correctly. We use FDA-approved product and document every unit in your file.

Forty-five minutes,
unhurried.

The first consultation is examination first — we don't decide on a plan until we've understood the face. If Botox isn't the right answer, we'll say so.
