After a consultation with an injector where they determine you are a good candidate for BOTOX injections, they will then proceed with treatment either during the same or later appointment.
First, your injector will discuss the treatment plan with you. This may also include discussions of the risks and post procedure instructions. Once you agree and understand, they will wipe the injection sites with an alcohol wipe to disinfect them. Numbing cream will likely be offered, but most patients do not find the injections overly painful.
If you opt for numbing cream, this will add ten to twenty minutes to your appointment. Following numbing, or if you choose not to numb, your injector will proceed with the injections. This can take as little as a few minutes to fifteen minutes depending on the procedures and number of injection sites.
After they finish the injections, they may give you additional instructions. However, at that point, you are then free to provide payment and leave the office.
